The lot at Potranco and Silver Maple has a sign advertising a strip center to be constructed.  Eldon contacted the realtor and they are aware of the deed restrictions and she is waiting on the plans so she can submit them to us for approval.

If anyone knows of a concrete contractor living in Coolcrest, please let Pastor Rob know.  He needs an estimate for a concrete pad.

It was recommended that the Flea Market sign be put out sooner and other advertising done as people need time to gather items.

The speed monitor sign has been received by Bexar County Public Works but was missing some parts.  When those are received, it will be installed.

Dumpster Availability – Eldon & Albert met with Bexar County Public Works rep to discuss this issue.  They found out that this would be open to everyone and not just Coolcrest residents.  Any damage on the property used would be our responsibility along with other areas of responsibility.  Albert checked and there are no other scheduled dump days in this area.  Issue tabled for now.

Bulletin board sign has been updated with new meeting place address and website info

Trash pickup was cancelled as Richard had already picked everything up.  Thanks Richard.

At a prior meeting, residents at Madrona and Yellow Birch had complained of flooding.  This is not a POA issue but recently  Eldon met with the residents and Bexar County Public Works.  It was learned that the developer’s submitted plan was not accurate and therefore, flooding was occurring.  Public Works will get with the developer.

New Business

No response from Frank regarding his contact with owner of property across from Tinka Taco and our proposal to place railroad ties across property line to keep vehicles from parking there.  Eldon will check with Frank and if no contact has been made, a letter will be sent to owner.

Open Forum

Eldon explained purpose of open forum – Issues must be pertinent to subdivision.  It must be something that the POA has the authority and means to act on.  It is not a bitch session. If appropriate, it will be listed on the next meeting’s agenda for consideration.

Presentations by various government entities were made first.

Tony Vasquez, Bexar County Public Works Division Chief, explained that a site analysis of our subdivision was done.  As a result of this study, there will be a four way stop installed at Silver Maple and Bois D’Arc.  Construction starts the end of the month.  A sign that flashes your car speed will be installed sometime after that on Silver Maple as you turn into the subdivision from Potranco Rd.  Also, American Lotus is being cut through to Grosenbacher which should relieve some of the traffic coming into the subdivision on Yellow Birch.  Any requests for a capital improvement project for sidewalks will need to be sent through the commissioner’s office but would be a lower priority due to other major issues in the county.  Enforcement of speed limits, stop signs, etc must be addressed with the Sheriff’s department.

State Representative Rick Galindo spoke next.  He is currently serving on the committees for Public Education, Mental Health, and  GTO (Government Transparency).  He lives in Amhurst and is aware of the problems out here and we are one of the fastest growing areas in the state.  If you have any concerns, contact his office at 210-922-1336.  He advised us of an upcoming Annexation Town Hall Meeting on Thursday, Jan 28. 2016, 7 PM at Hoffman Elementary Cafeteria.

TXDOT was represented by Christine Longoria and Marco Galindo.  They provided us with handouts on the major highway projects in our area -410/151 Interchange, 410/90 Interchange, and Loop 1604 expansions from Culebra to Hwy 90.

Bridell Miers spoke on Bexar County Capital Projects which includes expansion of Potranco Rd.  Waiting on TXDOT approval of contract, then it goes to Commisioner’s Court and construction to start in March, 2016.

Gabirel Lara, Coolcrest resident, is concerned about the length of time the county takes to get things done and is considering running as an independent for Commissioner Precinct 1.

Minutes from the Nov 10, 2015 meeting were read and approved.

Treasurer’s report was read and approved.  It was approved that the CDs coming up for renewal Feb 3, 2016 will be rolled into 13 month CDs.

Discussion held regarding the Fireworks stand at the old El Gato Tire Shop.  Owner of property will be contacted and told that no future fireworks stands will be allowed.  POA has previously voted that no fireworks will ever be allowed to be sold in the subdivision.

Open Forum

Sharon will get with the property owner of the lot across from Tink A Taco.  Kids are driving and spinning out in there and slinging mud onto Silver Maple.

House at corner of Silver Maple and Grapevine has been vacant a long time.  The yard was just recently mowed but parts of the roof have blown off.  Complaints have been made to the county.
