===== Agenda Item 4  =====

**Prospectives should be asked if they have a job before signing a resident contract. (Jessi)**

Shane:
I think we should just ask ppl, “Do you hove income?”

Ruth: 
I like the idea of making the wording less specific, although I think we’ve been doing this already. I can understand why ppl are opposed to connotation of the word “business’” but, but not the actual meaning.
I think we should post this issue an the kitchen table for ppl to comment on instead of discussing it in a meeting

Matthias:
I think this is a very important issue that we should discuss in the proper manner



===== Agenda Item 5 =====

**Removal of house pecan and cedar elm trees. (Mae)**

Mae: 
There are pecan and cedar elm saplings growing in front of the house, which is problematic according to McAllen and ppl at Barton Springs Nursery, because they drop a lot of limbs and their roots can damage foundation when they get older.

Ruth: 
I think that this tree removal is up to your discretion. The first time we had a limb fall on a car at the house, it was a cedar elm tree. So please dispose of them.
Matthias: Concerning maintenance, our grease trap and water pipes are located where those trees are growing, and so yes—those trees should be removed

====== New business ======
Ruth:
I wanted to mention some things we’ve tried to help stop people from taking house dishes  
Everybody can have their own set of dishes. We could have a drying rack above the mop rack where ppl can store these dishes. I bought ceramic dish clay and glaze for this purpose. Another thing is that ppl have identified their favorite dishes in the past which has helped prevent them from going missing
