Total Operating Income: Operating income is over budget ($1,738) for the month of May primarily due to Transfer Fees. Year to date we are over budget on our Operating Income ($6,733) in a variety of accounts. Our Delinquent account follow ups have been sent out and as of today (6-20-16) we have only two delinquent assessment accounts for consideration for turning over to our attorney for collection.

IGE President s Report for IGEHOA Meeting 4-23-16 Corey Negri (Ben Griggs from Ramco accompanied Corey) from Ramco will be presenting a proposal to provide software for the operation of the Entrada gate.

We still need another Board member and ask that each of you try to find a volunteer to assist us in managing our association. Our Money Market matured in mid-june and your motion last month a motion to allow me to negotiate the placement of our reserve funds at a better interest rate resulted in placing the $250,000 at Florida Community Bank in a 9 month CD at 1.4% APR.

During the month the GIB CD was rolled over to Florida Community Back for 9 months at 1.4%. The GIB Meeting on Jun 30th will include the 90% Design Review of the Collier County project to replace the water main from US41 to the Four-way stop. Drainage; (Director Castaldini) We are currently waiting for a start date to sleeve the drainage pipe at 1966 Imperial Golf Course Blvd. We have had the pipe scoped to determine the viability of the sleeve process and it has been determined that the sleeve process is the least expensive and best process available for this project. Once the process begins it will be only take a few days to complete without much, or any interruption to the neighborhood. We have also begun the process of ensuring that our lakes, catch basins, and weirs are clean and in operational condition in preparation of rainy season. We certainly hope that we have another quiet rainy season but as the Boy Scout moto says Be Prepared. Superintendents Report: (Superintendent Mark Thieme) Entrada: We have had many gate violations this month with several knocking down the bars. Residents please remind your guests and vendors to use the 41 entrance. Both NAVTEQ and Tele Atlas (GPS data service companies) have again been contacted regarding Entrada's ingress and egress issue. Drainage: Contracts have been signed for two drainage projects; one at the 4way intersection and one just West of Countess Ct. We are just waiting for commencement of the projects. The one at the four-way stop has been completed. Flowers: Red Pentas were planted at the wing wall and the 4-Way intersection, the following day the golf course had turned the water off. The injured flowers will be replaced soon. Multi colored Zinnias were planted in the other locations. Signs: Park signs were placed in Empress Park and Majestic Park. Beautification Committee Report: (Director Nessling) Some of the new park signs have been installed. Regular maintenance of the parks is being conducted according to schedule. Entrada Gate: (Director Nessling) May was another busy month for violators at the back gate. Almost every time that I entered or exited I encountered someone without a sticker trying to figure out how to get through! I m open to suggestions as to what else we can do to solve the problem. Signage tells everyone they must have an IGEHOA gate pass to exit. Progress continues on researching costs, positioning & style of flag pole near back gate. 3 I propose the Board vote on approving a "15 day notice" rule for all back gate violations in accordance with Florida Statutes providing violating residents the opportunity to appeal suspension of back gate privileges prior to enforcement. I believe this appeal should also be before a Violations Committee. The Board approved the revised Entrada Gate Rule including a 15 day notification before suspending use of the Entrada Gate for rule violations. Please let all of your vendors and visitors know they have to enter and exit IGE through the front gate off of US 41 regardless of where their GPS system directs them. Property Manager confirmed that the Contractor Guidelines and ARB form have included this entrance/exiting requirement. Architectural Review Board Report: (Vice President Toth) Eight requests were approved by the ARB in the period of May 26 to Jun 22. There were no disapproved requests and no pending requests. Approved requests included Dumpster, pool fence, trellis, impact windows, Hurricane screens, repaint and paver patio.. The Board approved the ARB report. To obtain an Exterior Change Request form on line: www.igenaples.info, log-in with name imperial and password 2011. Or a copy from Sandcastle Community Management and email your request to: sjtoth@gmail.com. Please remember that ARB approval is required for the use of PODS, Dumpsters and Porta-Potties even if the renovations involve only interior changes. Roads and Walkpaths: (Director Castaldini) No report. Traffic Awareness: (Director Keating) Traffic enforcement within IGE by CCSO (Collier County Sheriff Office) is on a regular basis. It was reported that the Collier Sheriff s Department has been contacted to provide a report and the speed monitor is tentatively scheduled to be on site sometime in late July. Violations and Fining Committee: (Director Mugford) I finished making rounds with our new Property Manager Beth McWilliams on Monday, June 20th. Pictures have been taken of the mold and stain on homes, driveways and as in the past, a friendly reminder will be sent to the homeowners we identified with a follow up inspection. There were many homes with roof mold and other stains. Commencing in September, 2016 I will be making monthly rounds so that residents will have time to schedule cleanup for deficiencies found on inspection on a timely basis.
