1)   New Board member:  A vote was completed on April 9, 2008 by which time a majority of board members had voted to approve the appointment of Michael D’Angelo to fill a board vacancy created by the resignation of Victor Bellini on March 18, 2008.  The appointment will be valid until the next annual meeting of the General Membership.  

2)   Minutes:  Minutes of the March 18, 2008 meeting were approved.  

3)   Appointment of new Treasurer:  With Victor Bellini’s resignation from the board, the appointment of a new Treasurer was required.  There were no volunteers.  After discussion, Boynton agreed to accept appointment as Treasurer for a period of three months with Michael D’Angelo and Nora Colford agreeing to assist Boynton.  

4)   Appointment of new Landscaping Chair and Committee:  Boynton accepted appointment as Landscaping Chair conditional to board members volunteering to join a committee and accept specific responsibilities.  Stacey Cohen, Nora Colford, and Michael D’Angelo volunteered for committee.  Boynton will be responsible for lawn, Stacey Cohen, Nora Colford, and Michael D’Angelo will be responsible for flowers and recommendation for replacement and/or additional shrubbery.  

5)   Financial Report:   

      a)   Appointment of auditor for FY2007 audit:  The board voted to accept the proposal from Wilken & Guttenplan for a FY2007 audit.  

      c)   FY2006 audit:  Victor Bellini reported that the FY2006 audit being conducted by Wilken & Guttenplan is still not complete.  The auditors are still waiting for information from Highview.  

      d)   FY2008 budget:  A FY2008 budget will be proposed as soon as FY2007 financial records are straightened out by the auditing firm of Wilken & Guttenplan.  When the previous management firm of TKR was dismissed, Highview II financial records were in disorder.  The FY2007 audit will need to be completed before an accurate record of outstanding FY2007 debt is certain and in the meantime, accounting by Wentworth Management will temporarily continue on a cash basis instead of accrual.

            No legal report at this meeting.  

7)   Building Repair & Maintenance Report:

            No maintenance report at this meeting.
