UNFINISHED BUSINESS:
501-A4 Unauthorized brick paver patio status: Association’s Attorney - Becker
Poliakoff – Litigation Committee Members: (Howard Nygard, Nick Scheskowsky
and Al DeCarlo) the Litigation Committee reported/discussed the status of the
Arbitration for 501-A4. It was brought to the Litigation Committee attention by
our Attorney that this issue could not be resolved/settled at Arbitration. The firm,
Becker Poliakoff stated that the Owners assert as a defense that they placed the
Brick Patio within the footprint of their limited common elements and, therefore,
the issue is one of “title.” The Arbitrator indicated he is inclined to rule, that in
light of this defense, this matter is not subject to his jurisdiction because
Arbitrators have no jurisdiction over matters involving “title” under the
Condominium Act and the case will need to be filed in Court. The Association
however is not without recourse to obtain a final decision on whether the disputed
area is common elements or limited common elements. That recourse however is
with the Court and not in Arbitration. And for that reason our Attorney
recommended that the Association consider dismissing Arbitration. On May 15,
2014 the President reconvened the Litigation Committee. A Motion was made to
table this issue until the June 18, 2014 Sea Oats POA Board Meeting by Jake
Jakuboski and 2nd by Ramona Horgan. Unanimously Approved Motion Passed.

Howard Nygard and 2nd by Nick Scheskowsky. Unanimously Approved Motion
Passed.
