III REPORTS

General Manager's Report - Mr. Warren Wegesend provided a verbal, as well as a written report which will become a part of the meeting file. Following are highlights of his report:

Aeloa Park -- The problem if still with the type of deed they want to issue. It provides that the Association accept the park in an as is condition with no warranties. All we are asking for is a quit claim deed with a warranty to title. President Riggins and Mr. Wegesend just met with the developer, Chuck Heitzman and Dave Clymer, and their attorney Terry Yamamoto, to make them aware of the Association's position. Hopefully, the matter will be solved soon.

Bisecting Park -- The form of deed and dedication requirements have still not yet been resolved. There are still concerns about the language which holds the City & County harmless for all liability, while the association will defend and pay the legal fees.

Accounts Receivable - Approximately 600 statements were sent out this month to accounts with balances. It was discovered that Chaney Brooks charged many accounts late fees in 1998, even though the accounts were current. We have receive many calls from homeowner, and we have reversed those late fees that were charged in error.

Kapolei Knolls -- President Riggins and Mr. Wegesend will be meeting with Donald Lau of HCDCH to discuss the matter further.

ACT 15 -- Mr. Wegesend spoke to Mayor Jeremy Harris, who referred him to the Department of Planning, who then referred him back to the HCDCH. The question is, can the State re-zone land that it does not own. The Neighborhood Board is also looking into this matter further.
