IDC Development for the transfer of control of the Association
and the bank account secured.

by AA Lawn Services and approved by the Association for the upkeep
of the grounds.
8. Architectural
Control Committee: It was unanimously approved that the addition
of hurricane shutters would have to be approved by the Board of
Directors. Discussion was held with regard to time limit for removing
any plywood placed over windows during hurricane season and it
was decided that this would be handled on a case-by-case basis.
9. Fire coverage
for the property is presently covered by Steinhatchee Fire Department
and not Perry. Fire hydrants do not have enough pressure to put
out a large fire. Our rating at present is 9 but hopefully can
be changed to 1 when the new fire tower is put in. It was agreed
that the Association would seek help from commissioners to get
rating changed.

to KBL to turn around. It was agreed that Glen Senter and Gerry

except for one. These can be moved by homeowners temporarily as
needed.

14. Gerry
Stephenson announced that the insurance purchased by IDC Development
for Keaton Beach Landings would expire on May 14. Insurance can
be purchased for common areas only. The Homeowners Association
has responsibility for purchase of liability and hazard insurance.
Most homeowners already have required flood insurance and in the
event that a flood did occur, only one company would pay and have
dual coverage would not be feasible. Motion was made by Joe Kunes
and seconded by Phil Hartley that the Association would purchase
liability insurance only for the common areas and that it would
be up to each homeowner to purchase their own flood/hazard insurance.

can be assumed by HOA.
