Fencing Pricing

There were several fence replacement options discussed:

• If we replace each 10’ section in our current style: $65/10’ ($27K for materials) + 115% materials = $65K

• 2 hole is $45/10’ section = $48K

• (The values above are using the estimate of 4180 linear feet: 418 panels for exterior fence)

• To just do 60th in the current style it would be about $28K

Fixing the Fence in 2022

• We would like to replace the stretch of fence 60th in 2022

• Completing this portion would constitute 40% of the total replacement job

• It will cost ~$28K, or $277/household, which we can pay for out of reserves

• This maintenance has been deferred for quite awhile, and we want to fix it proactively in order to avoid getting a letter from the county mandating that we fix it

• unanimously approved

• Matt is going to get us official bids

• For the houses on the corner of 60th and Easley that share the fence but are not officially part of the HOA: Matt and Bob will let residents know that we are replacing the fence up until it reaches their house and let them know they are welcome to get on board if they pay for the repair for the segments in front of their house
