Mr. Molina opened the meeting by reviewing the Agenda for this meeting.

Mr. Molina first introduced Barbara Cytrynowicz who has been hired to replace Carlos Alvarado as Tennis Director effective October 1, 2001. Ms. Cytrynowicz gave a brief presentation of her qualifications and showed the Board some samples of her work from previous positions she held.

Mr. Molina reviewed the Compensation Package that was passed out to each Board member (see attached).

A MOTION was made by Mr. Josephson and seconded by Dr, Menchel to ratify the hiring and compensation package for Ms. Cytrynowicz.  MOTION PASSED 6 FOR and 0 AGAINST. Mr. Mintzer abstained from voting.

Mr. Molina then passed out a financial package to each Board member and went ahead to explain the financial position of the Tennis facility. Mr. Molina stressed that it has taken a year to get the financial health of the club in order and now the community can move forward to make the club stronger.

Mr. Molina went on to talk about the meeting he, Mr. Josephson, and Ms. Landler had with a group of Tennis Club members and what he learned about the history of the club. He also stressed that the members were very direct in what they wanted for the club. The group has also toured the facility and has made notes of the deficiencies so that they can be corrected.

Mr. Brawer presented a purchase request for supplies and equipment that is needed for the club. The total needed is $25,000, which includes the clay needed on the courts. (See attached).

A MOTION was made by Mr. Berk and seconded by Ms. Lander to take $25,000 from reserves to fund the necessary purchases and repairs.

MOTION PASSED 7 votes for and 0 against.

Mr. Molina again stressed that Ms. Cytrynowicz will be responsible for not only activities but also the maintenance of the facility. It is important that members see work in progress at all times and know who they can go to in order to report problems.

Mr. Mintzer asked what it would take to keep members at Eagle Trace when the rates at other clubs are less expensive. Ms. Cytrynowicz responded that the three most important factors are 1.) Customer service 2.) Court availability and 3.) Activities.

It was recommended that the club set up an advisory board to meet with management and the Board on a regular basis so that the feelings of the members are always known and addressed.

Mr. Brawer was asked that in the future that the purpose of Board meetings is posted on the signs at the gates.

Mr. Bloch reminded everyone about the upcoming Halloween Party.

The meeting was adjourned at 4:30pm

Respectfully submitted,

Louis Brawer
