On January 31, 2004, Mrs. Mareira was sent correspondence from the association’s Attorney regarding the placement of her shed. After such receipt, she spoke with us and advised us that her husband had left her and she had no way to get this done. This was discussed at a meeting and several members advised that they were going to set up a couple of volunteers to help her out. The Board advised us to take no further action. At this point, no volunteers were ever assembled and the issue is still a problem. The Board needs to decide whether to send her back for legal action or not.
