Prior to the official start of the meeting, Councilman David Marks requested to address the board for a few minutes. He spoke about rezoning issues in Perry Hall, a desire to redevelop Perry Hall Square Shopping Center, proposed development of property adjacent to Northgate Hall, and no plans for new schools or road improvement projects. He discussed dialogue with zoning to downsize from DR3.5 homes per acre to DR2 or DR1 per acre on property between Tremper Farms and Northgate Hall from Ebenezer to Silver Spring road and also informed the board of a 50 unit development going up near Perry Hall Library. A planning board meeting will be held in March 2012 at Perry Hall High School. All community members are encouraged to attend; specific date and time will be posted to the website once confirmed.
We appreciate Councilman Marks for his interest in keeping the community board members abreast of projects germane to Perry Hall and thank him for his time.
Secondly, our planned guest Eric Rockel, (our liaison with Baltimore County) addressed the board to update the progress on conveying the Storm Water Management Facility (pond) to Baltimore County. The county requires fee simple road to nearest public road; Kahl Avenue to Joppa Road already in place. Mr. Rockel has done the title search for the property and the preliminary deed is done. County will require form to convey the property; need recording reference. Our community attorney J. Carroll Holzer will provide the legal certification. In addition, 2/3 of the Northgate Hall homeowners must provide written consent to convey the pond to the county. Eric provided sample copies of two forms which could be used. Each homeowner whose name appears on the deed must print their name, address, and then sign. The signatures do not have to be notarized, only attested to by a witness. If the two thirds requirement is met, the President H.O.A. will sign over the “pond”.

OLD BUSINESS
- Letter sent to property owner on November 11, 2011 regarding encroachment on community open space. This matter was resolved to the satisfaction of all parties.
- Investor was finally determined and contacted for a property in the 9100 block Kilbride Road to collect past due assessments. Subsequent phone call received on December 15, 2011 indicated payment for full amount due was forthcoming.
- As a result of our walk through on October 1, 2011, areas were identified for phase 1 of the clean-up. An initial bid from the community landscaper was received and rejected by the board as excessive. The job was put up for bid and a second landscaper was contacted. Once again, board members walked with each bidder to identify work to be done. Both bids were received as requested by November 10, 2011 @ 7:00 PM. As a result of the competitive process, the price for the awarded bidder was reduced by $1100.00. Work has begun and continues as weather permits.
NEW BUSINESS
- A post office box has been rented for six months at the Nottingham Branch for use by the H.O.A. This PO Box will be used for the return of the annual assessment and any related issues. Speculatively, the box may be closed on the Monday after the assessment due date of March 1, 2012. Assessments received late will be returned to sender and applicable fees applied.
- Seven properties have been sold in the last six months. Complete homeowner list provided to the treasurer.
