HOA ANNUAL MEETING
Quail Run Homeowners Association
ANNUAL MEETING
MARCH 22, 2025
CALL TO ORDER 10:00 AM
CRAIG ANGEL opened the meeting
Current financial Position
Linda Barber provided the meeting with a Profit and Loss Statement. Questions from the group were the following:
What are the charges for landscaping and where were these services performed? Linda responded that charges were for landscaping and weed control at the entrance and common areas. A mention of the recently sprayed weed killer might be ineffective to controlling the Desert Broom. Several residents commented that they had pitched in and cut weeds and brush in the past supplementing the work performed by the landscapers. Concern was raised about the dollar amount of the services.
Roadway Maintenance
Discussion on the maintenance and repair of the roadway.
Karen Tellier asked the Board what they were going to do about the Road way repairs as the condition of the roads in certain areas was getting extremely bad. Items brought forth in discussion centered on the following items.
Discussion on the maintenance and upkeep of the perimeter walls. It was pointed out that many of the perimeter walls were in need of repair. This has been an ongoing problem that has been only getting worse. It was asked by Phil Keuffler if the association could turn the wall ownership to the individual Homeowners. Discussion followed with the following points:
Further discussions would have to follow. Craig Angel was asked if there had been any conversations with the current forest ranger on this issue. Craig stated that the previous ranger didn’t show a willingness to work on this issue but no talks with the new ranger had taken place.
CC&Rs
A discussion on the CC&Rs centered on whether they could be changed with secure on line voting instead of traditional mailings.
It was noted that it still requires a 75% vote of the membership to change anything in the CC&Rs. David Gideon noted that with current AI technology new CC&Rs could be produced that would update the benefit to the Association. Scott Silva offered to do research on software that might allow the Association a secure voting platform that would enable and easier change to the CC&Rs than what was used in the past.
Light Poles.
A discussion of Light poles and their maintenance was covered in the meeting. Craig Angel indicated that SRP normally takes about 2 weeks to replace a light. He also indicated that SRP is changing the lights to LEDs. There were concerns from some residents that some of the lights are very bright at their locations. LED lights may help with that issue.
Underground utilities.
A discussion of the condition of the underground utilities and their deterioration. The association has had numerous water leaks in the past It was recommended that if the association were to begin repairs on the roadway that our underground valves and connections should be done in coordination with those road repairs. Repair of individual home isolation valves is necessary due to their age and the condition of the valves. Several residents indicated that they had installed backup valves between the valve boxes and their home due to the unreliability of the original valve.
Dumpsters
A discussion on the dumpsters and their cost was began by the group. Linda Barber indicated that the cost of the dumpster service was increasing again to $1,410 every two months. Discussion centered on the following points.
David Gideon suggested putting cameras back in place to be able to identify non-members who use our dumpsters and report them to the police. David indicated that his company has had good results with the police enforcing illegal dumping at his jobsites. 40 ft roll off dumpsters might be problematic due the concerns of some residents getting hurt trying to use them. Most agreed that having a dumpster service in the neighborhood would be detrimental to the condition of our aging streets.
New Election
A new election for Directors was held. Candidates for office were the following.
A vote of the membership was held with Linda Barber tabulating the votes. All candidates for office were elected to a 12 month term of office.
A sign up sheet was provided for those willing to serve on the Quail Run Architectural Committee. The following individuals volunteered for a 12 month term on the committee:

Roadway Maintenance
Discussion on the maintenance and repair of the roadway.
Karen Tellier asked the Board what they were going to do about the Road way repairs as the condition of the roads in certain areas was getting extremely bad. Items brought forth in discussion centered on the following items.
- The new Board needs to formulate a 3-5 year plan for repair and replacement of the existing bad areas.
- How will the Association pay for these improvements? The discussion was centered on dues being increased and possible assessments.
- A discussion on the previous work performed by Sunland Asphalt the projections of how much it would cost over this period
- It was confirmed with Linda Barber that the Association was only showing a small surplus between income and expenses thereby requiring additional funding need by the Association for repairs.
- Questions by the group about how would the dues be changed and if the membership needed to vote on large dollar amount increases. It was communicated by several members that communication with the membership was essential as well as being aware that large increases could have a detrimental effect on some members.
- Loans to the Association from financial organizations would be problematic. Michael Osborne stated that with the Association actually having few assets it would be difficult getting financing.
Discussion on the maintenance and upkeep of the perimeter walls. It was pointed out that many of the perimeter walls were in need of repair. This has been an ongoing problem that has been only getting worse. It was asked by Phil Keuffler if the association could turn the wall ownership to the individual Homeowners. Discussion followed with the following points:
- According to the CC&Rs the responsibility for maintaining the walls belongs to the association.
- New legal precident may show that because each lot that enjoys the benefit of having a back wall may be responsible for maintaining the wall and not the entire association. Michael Osborne agreed to do more research on this issue and get back to the new board with and answer.
- It was agreed that with the road repairs and the wall repairs the financial burden on the association might be too high to just raise dues.
Further discussions would have to follow. Craig Angel was asked if there had been any conversations with the current forest ranger on this issue. Craig stated that the previous ranger didn’t show a willingness to work on this issue but no talks with the new ranger had taken place.

A discussion on the dumpsters and their cost was began by the group. Linda Barber indicated that the cost of the dumpster service was increasing again to $1,410 every two months. Discussion centered on the following points.
- Can we change dumpster services to get a better rate?
- How can we prevent the public from using our dumpsters?
- What would be the cost and effectiveness of getting a 40’ roll of dumpster?
- What would the effect on our streets by moving to individual trash cans?
