Introduction

Review & Approve Last Meeting Minutes
Terri made a motion to accept minutes as written. Anita seconded, all in favor.

Agenda Check

Open Membership Forum

Grant provided a summary of the Croc training in Hood River, held from the 21st to the 23rd, which included a keynote speaker from Jurassic Parliament focusing on Robert's Rules and parliamentary procedure. They mentioned working on obtaining and sharing the recordings and resources from the event, suggesting a potential approach to gradually implement stricter parliamentary procedures, possibly starting with one agenda item . Anita also discussed the classes she took, including "difficult people" and "committees," and highlighted the benefits of networking with other community members at the event. Heather Faldalen introduced their co-worker Araceli Loza, who was welcomed to the meeting. Grant expressed concern that future Croc events might be virtual or smaller due to federal funding cuts.

Anita requested a change in the meeting time from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM or 4:30 PM to accommodate their work schedule and reduce lost work hours (00:17:12). Heather Faldalen informed the board that Tammy, who also works with another co-op, has a meeting starting at 6:00 PM on the same day, which might cause them to leave early if the meeting extends past 6:00 PM. Terri motioned to change the meeting time to 4:30. Patti seconded, all in favor.

Update on Draw Requests

Grant provided an update on draw requests, explaining that funds from the replacement reserve account, managed by the lender, are released for qualified infrastructure replacements. They noted that some work had been paid for, but the request for replenishment of funds was still pending a response from the person emailed. The Board Account added following up on these requests to their to-do

AGENDA ITEMS

Update: Insurance

Heather Faldalen reported that Tami was unable to finalize the updated directors and officers policy. Anita made a motion to authorize Terri to cancel the old insurance and sign the cooperative for a new directors and officers policy. Patti seconded, all in favor. This action would save $3,000 this year and $4,500 next year.

Update: Litigation Attorney

Terri mentioned receiving an engagement letter for services from a litigation attorney. This attorney would handle situations like rent non-payment leading to court or fair housing complaints, distinguishing their role from Brian, the current legal advisor who does not go to court. It was clarified that this attorney would not be on a perpetual retainer but would have an hourly billing rate, allowing for urgent legal services without waiting for board meetings. Terri made a motion to vote on this at the next meeting. Patti seconded, all in favor.

Update: Walk through:

Heather Faldalen updated the board on the walk-through, stating that most properties were satisfactory, but a few needed improvement, and three required major work. Letters were sent to motivate families to address issues, with "friendly letters" sent to others.

Clackamas County Exclusion List Terri introduced the Clackamas County exclusion list program, which authorizes sheriff's officers to enforce trespass laws on private property when the owner or person in charge is not present or when individuals refuse to leave or pose a threat. Terry presented a "no trespassing" sign for placement in the park and discussed the possibility of installing cameras at the entrance.

The Board discussed methods for distributing information about the Clackamas County exclusion list program to residents. Grant and Patti agreed to write the cover letter, and Heather Faldalen would send the labels for mailing. Patti would mail a copy of the Exclusion Program to each member. They could submit their feedback by email, Board@CedarGlenEstatesCoop.com, or by dropping off a hand written note in the office mail slot by November 11, 2025.

Terri made a motion to adjourn and go into executive session. Patti seconded, all in favor.
