WAIALAE IKI RIDGE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION
Board of Directors' Meeting
November 8, 2006


    Call to Order:
  • President Judy Fadrowsky called the meeting to order at 7:35 PM.

    Treasurer’s Report:

  • President Fadrowsky delivered the Treasurer’s Report for Roger Liu, Treasurer.

    Committee Reports:

    President Fadrowsky thanked WIRCA Board members and officers for taking on committee/officer tasks. A report of their accomplishments follows.

  • Newsletter – Joann Allin put out 3 newsletters this year, each taking 6 weeks to assemble, format, proof, print and distribute.
  • Nominating Committee - David Andrew reported that Diana Snyder, Victor Lim and Lino Vicente resigned from the Board during the past year. Board members who have replaced them are Fay Jones, Mike Bianco and Jim Okey. 7 members of the Board have agreed to serve a new 3 year term. They are: Donna Ashley, David Andrew, Lisa Iwata, Sandra Kingery, Shirley Kollmeyer, Roger Liu, and Jane Katayama. The motion to approve this slate of candidates was made, seconded and approved.
  • Membership Dues – President Fadrowsky reported for Donna Ashley, that for the second year in a row, WIRCA membership has hit 80% of Waialae Iki residents. Given that membership is voluntary, this was a great achievement.
  • Decals – Sandi Kingery is responsible for sending out WIRCA car decals. We plan to keep this year’s navy blue color until further notice.
  • Web Page – Carmen Hagloch has updated the website, including a new map of the hill. She encouraged members to visit www.wirca.org.
  • Information Dissemination – Helen MacNeil reported that there were 18 inquiries year-to-date regarding renovations (7), view channels (6), and obstructed views (5). The biggest concerns expressed by homeowners are trees and 2nd story additions blocking views. She also reported on a recent meeting with real estate attorney, Bill Burns, to review materials drafted to respond to inquiries on covenants and building restrictions on the hill.
  • Security – Ginger Plasch reported that there have been no car break-ins, thefts, or burglaries on the hill since early April. This is a record number of months without an incident. She attributes this to our conscientious security patrol, heightened care being taken by our residents, the presence of HPD in East Honolulu ticketing speeders, and generally lower crime levels throughout East Honolulu.
  • Database – Nate Sparks serves as back-up for database management, performed by Ginger Plasch.
  • Public Affairs and Liaison to Neighborhood Board – Jack Schneider attends our Neighborhood Board meetings and reports back issues of interest.
  • Social – Sandi Kingery and Fay Jones serve as social chairs.
  • Zone Captains – Marilyn Haine and Jim Okey are responsible for our Zone Captains. They arranged for a “Thank You” luncheon in August. There are currently 5 zones without zone captains. Volunteers would be appreciated.
  • Bylaws and Parliamentary Procedure – Janice Wright oversees changes or updates to WIRCA Bylaws, which are on the website.
  • Traffic Calming – Carmen Hagloch has been very creative in educating the community through speed signs and newsletter articles.
  • Streets and Sidewalks – Lisa Iwata has inspected every street in our subdivision for unsafe potholes/road conditions, and followed up with reports to the city. Resurfacing of Laukahi St. is not scheduled before 2008.
  • President Fadrowsky thanked Mike Bianco and Shirley Kollmeyer, who helped with special projects.
    New Business:
  • In response to a question from the membership regarding the house on the right hand corner at the bottom of the hill, President Fadrowsky reported that Barbara Marumoto is working with the state to deliver trees and ground cover to plant on the corner outside the CMU rock wall. Various homeowners have volunteered to help plant and maintain the plantings.

    President Fadrowsky adjourned the meeting at 8:00pm.

    Respectfully Submitted,
    Helen MacNeil, Secretary
