V. Business Items
 
A. Upland Claims – Matt Davis
 
Upland Claims – Last month the Board voted to approve a settlement with Rosser up to $25,000.  The Rosser estimates came in under $25,000, so we conveyed the settlement offer to him last week in the amount of $22,756.15.  There are no other pending upland claims or anything for the Bard to consider regarding upland claims at this time.  The Bauers (502 Islebay) have not provided the requested documentation, and the Board took no action with respect to the Cox claim (5701 Tybee) at last month’s meeting. – Follow-up with Matt on status 
 
1. Sports Surface Update
 
Sports Surfaces – Sports Surfaces avoided a default by having an attorney make an appearance in the lawsuit.  This means that we will not be able to get a default judgment as discussed last month.  Instead, we will have to pursue a resolution through litigation.  However, I spoke with Sport Surfaces’ attorney last week, and, given the relatively low amount in controversy, $24,172.50, neither of us wants to incur a lot of attorneys’ fees in what should be a straightforward issue.  Recall that the contract requires Sport Surfaces to return the deposit, except that it was entitled to be paid for costs incurred (i.e. if it purchased materials for the project).  Sport Surfaces previously claimed it incurred  costs (and was thus entitled to keep the deposit), but it provided no documentation to support the claim.  As I discussed with him last week, Sport Surfaces’ attorney is going provide evidence of the costs Sports Surfaces if such evidence exists.  I just followed up with him today.  I am hopeful that we’ll have the documents and information in time for the April Board meeting so I can make a settlement recommendation to the Board.
