The Board urged Mr. Vaughan to get this mechanical engineering plan completed so that it could be submitted to a building contractor for an estimate of the cost to CVIII of converting this storage room to an apartment.

The Board authorized Mr. Vaughan to have Clean Advantage do the same with screens on CVIII’s windows.

Bathroom Ventilation Fans: Mr. Vaughan informed the Board that structural and mechanical engineers and a representative of a construction services company had used two adjoining CVIII units as a mock-up and determined that a common passive bathroom ventilation system available for individual demand would not meet the Arlington County Building Code. An active system mounted on a building roof was possible, but it may not be approved by Arlington County Historic Affairs because it would be visible above buildings’ parapets.

Mr. Vaughan said he did not know how many scuppers needed to be repaired and recaulked or how much it would cost to do so.

Mr. Vaughan said this budget contains an increase of $44,600 in expenses over the 2014 budget. Mr. Vaughan said this increase would pay for higher salaries for property management staff, an increase in Legum & Norman’s property management fee and about $20,000 in higher maintenance expense. He said a 7.3% increase in assessments would be necessary to avoid a deficit. The Board advised Mr. Vaughan that it would not approve such a large increase in assessments.

CVIII’s Web Site: Mr. Gerrity reported that CVIII’s website was not functioning because navigation links and other links were broken.

Conversion of 1821 Storage Room: The Board discussed its plans to convert the storage room in 1821 Rhodes St. to a residential unit that could be leased. Cheryl Concelman: The Board and others expressed their appreciation for Ms. Concelman’s efforts to keep CVIII’s grounds free of leaves and other debris. Thank You: Mr. Amato, Mr. Gerrity, Mr. Midler and Mr. Nicoll thanked the other unit owners present for attending the meeting and encouraged them to become involved in the Board’s efforts to maintain and improve CVIII’s common elements and the quality of life of its residents. Speaking for all of CVIII’s unit owners, the Board again welcomed Ms. Boykins and thanked Mr. Vaughan for his efforts during the past year.

Owners Forum: 1808 Queens Ln.: Mr. Van Meter said that the entrance door to the basement in 1808 Queens Lane located on the west side of the building was damaged and would not close securely. Mr. Van Meter and others said that the trash room in this building was in a terrible state of repair. There was a broken window, and the walls were dirty and had holes in them. He said the hallways and other areas in this basement also needed to be cleaned and painted. Mr. Van Meter said that a service door for the crawl space under 1813 Rhodes St. was unlatched and open much of the time. He said this allowed cold air under the building, increasing his tenant’s heating costs during the winter. Mr.Vaughan said that he would make replacing this door and renovate the basement areas of this building a priority. Maintenance Staff: Mr. Van Meter said that CVIII’s maintenance engineer needed to be supervised better to ensure that CVIII got the work effort for which it was paying. The Board and Mr. Vaughan said that they were aware of this issue and they were working to correct it.

Management Report: Mr. Vaughan reviewed the management of CVIII during 2014. He described CVIII’s finances as being in excellent condition, and he said he expected them to remain so as long as operating costs and the effects of inflation on reserve accounts were covered by CVIII’s budgets. Mr. Vaughan said that he was in the process of preparing a revised draft of CVIII’s 2015 budget for the Board’s consideration at its November meeting. Mr. Vaughan said that major projects undertaken during the year included exterior painting and caulking aluminum capping on windows. Scuppers serving roofs and downspouts were being repaired and recaulked. He said renovating the masonry of the chimney located behind 1821 N. Rhodes Street had finally been completed.

Election of Members of the Board of Directors: Mr. Amato explained the requirements of the CVIII By-Laws with respect to the election of members of the Board of Directors. Mr. Amato said that there were two vacancies this year. One was for a full three-year term. The other was for the final two years of a vacancy that was not filled by election at CVIII’s 2013 annual meeting. Inspectors of Election: Unit owners Peyton Palmore and Joseph Van Meter were appointed inspectors of the election of members of CVIII’s Board of directors. Candidate for Election to Board of Directors: The name of Dennis Gerrity appeared as a candidate on the proxy statements distributed prior to this meeting. Mr. Amato asked if anyone else present was interested in standing for election to the Board, and if so, to please step forward. No one did. Election Results: Mr. Gerrity received more than 50% of the common element interest voted by proxy and in person at this meeting, and he was therefore elected to a three-year term as a member of CVIII’s Board of Directors.
