Date: February 17, 2011
The 2011 Annual Meeting of The Greens was held on February 17, 2011. Gary Petersen presided over the meeting.
A quorum was not represented therefore the budget offered by the 2010 Board Members was approved as presented to the Association via mail from Jim Curley Properties. There were nine members in attendance and two proxies, to have a quorum there needed to be 22 valid members present and/or proxies.
Gary Petersen reviewed the budget with those present. There has been a $5 increase in the association dues for 2011, making the monthly association fees $110. This is the first time the association fees have been raised in two years. Notice was sent to all home owners regarding this increase.
Parking remains a problem for homeowners. There are still a number of available parking spaces for rent. Cars parked in the visitor only spaces that do not indicate they are visitors, which unit they are visiting and how long they expect to be visiting can be expected to be towed at the owner’s expense.
There was a question regarding the painting of entry doors and shutters, and the replacement of gutters. This was put on hold during 2010 because of higher than expected maintenance costs. Two units had to jacked up to prevent structural damage and a very large erosion hole had to be filled. As soon as finances allow these items will be taken care of. If these items were to be completed at this time, an assessment would need to be levied, and those present were not in favor of an assessment.
There are three out going board members, thus these positions need to be filled. Four residents indicated they would be interested in being on the Board for the next two years: Bill Wheeler, Bob Wolfgang, Darlene Collins and Lin Rutherford. Because there was not a quorum present the current board members, Gary Petersen and Justin Sauer will appoint three new board members.
The meeting was adjourned.

The Ins and Outs of District 29 - Messages from Council Lady Vivian Wilhoite
New Date for
Crime Meeting
Dear District 29 Neighbors and Friends:
Thursday, April 21, 2011 is the new date set for our crime meeting that was canceled on Monday, April 11, 2011 in the interest of safety due to very strong thunder storms and tornado watch/warning. We tried to set a new date without the threat of inclement weather. The meeting on Thursday, April 21, 2011 will still be held at the Lakeview Design/Elementary School. Below is a copy of the notification that I sent out that explained why we were having a meeting.
See you on Thursday.
Copy of Council Lady Wilhoite email of April 7, 2011:
Crime is happening all over Nashville. We have worked hard to keep our community informed, safe and clean with our neighborhood watch & associations groups and individually, being a good neighbor looking out for each other. There have been times that our community would not experience events then all of a sudden, it happens. And then it happens again, a break-in here and a break-in there with other increasing events. Yes, crime is happening in other Davidson County communities, but it does not seem like it when it is repeatedly happening in ours. To that end, I have set another crime meeting. As promised, the meeting is set for 6:00 pm, Monday, April 11, 2011 at Lakeview Elementary, 455 Rural Hill Road in Nashville. I have invited Commander Michele Donnegan and her staff to come and talk with us about some of the recent events that have occurred in and around our community. Please come to hear from our fine public safety officials, and to provide them with your concerns as well. No dog and pony shows will be provided. Just straight talk about what our hardworking Metro Police Department of Hermitage Precinct is doing to keep our neighborhood safe and clean.
See you at the meeting!
Gratefully,Vivian

Thursday's crime log
Tennessean
Man found shot to death
A man was found fatally shot in a vehicle overnight at an apartment complex in the Nashboro Village area, Metro Police said.
Officers received a shots-fired call just after 1:30 a.m. Thursday, according to Metro Police Capt. Ken Walburn. When officers investigated, they were told by a resident that a car had crashed, and officers found a deceased body in the driver’s seat, slumped over, with the seat belt still on. The car had crashed into an area of shrubbery, Walburn said.
No motive has been established, nor have any witnesses to the shooting been located. Police were still on the scene early this morning, Walburn said.
The man, whose identity is being held until next of kin is notified, did not live at the complex, according to the initial investigation. But police said the victim was at the complex earlier in the day grilling out.
It hasn’t been determined whether the man was shot while driving the vehicle or beforehand, Walburn said.
“It’s a wide-open case, we don’t know if it was a robbery or a drug deal,’’ Walburn said.
The call came from Village Green Drive, according to dispatch.
Anyone with information is asked to call 74-CRIME.

Calling all volunteers!! This is a great place and it needs your help.
Spring is right around the corner and just like with your own home, the BLH also needs a good cleaning! Yes, it is work, but we can make it fun! Come join all your fellow members and volunteers; get to know others that you may not come in contact with at other times. We need you!!
Please mark your calendar for Saturday, March 19. We will begin at 8:00 am, so please come as early as possible. Many hands make light work, the more we have, the quicker we will are done. We will need some strong volunteers to take out the windows in order to wash and clean all parts of them, plus removing the cob webs, etc.
The BLH, Addison Museum and the Craft Center are way past due for a good cleaning.
Thank you, we appreciate your support!
Gratefully, Vivian
