Annual Meeting
Annual Meeting September 24, 2011
Attended by Steve Kembel, Aim Accounting Services, board members, 8 homeowners. President holding 11 proxies from members who were unable to attend. Mr. kembel presented proposed budget for coming year, budget same as previous year. Proposed budget passed by all attending members and proxies. Mr. Kembel discussed that Yelm Terra is in good standing that homeowner’s presonnel budgets have affected how the dues are being paid. Instead of everyone paying the full amount by February 1st, more and more homeowners are paying on a monthly budget plan. This only affects how bills are being paid but doesn’t affect the overall budget.
President, Laura Huseth:
Progress of LawnPros (landscaper) to control the watering times which was to decrease the water bill for the HOA. Due to the fact that Yelm water usage rates doubled, water bill is higher but the amount of water used is less. Discussed removal of large tree adjacent to 104th and the walking path. Discussed that the neighborhood can be held liable if tree falls and does damage to personal property or injures someone. Overall agreement that tree should be removed. President agreed to have the tree looked at by tree removers.
Reminder to contact Yelm police if you are having a civil dispute with neighbor or citizens that visit neighborhood. Yelm Terra board appreciates that homeowners inform the president of the HOA but we can only enforce what is written in the covenants, bylaws and Good neighbor policy that was adopted for the neighborhood.
Nominations from floor for Laura Huseth to remain as president, Ron Nelson to remain vice president and Elliott LLerena to become the crime watch coordinator. Vote taken and proxie counted. All nominated were approved to be board members.

Attended by Steve Kembel from Aim Accounting Services. Mr. Kembel mentioned that Yelm City Water Board had put a limit on the amount of water that Yelm Terra HOA was allowed to use off of the two water meters for the common areas. The early detection and involvemnt of the HOA president and Chris Keesler from LawnPros made it possible for the common areas to remain being watered at a reduced rate. Discussion on the Crime Watch Coordinator led to a decision that Elliott Llerena would be the new Crime Watch Coordinator.
