interview designers and welcome recommendations from the residents of El Mirador.

to be remodeled vs. renovated.

Old Business:
Cooling Tower
Rafael Estrada reported that Kirk Miller Insurance requires contractors to carry $10 million in
Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance applicable to exterior and elevation related contracted work. ATC
only carries $8 million. We have asked Kirk Miller to make an exception request to the insurance
carrier. We are waiting for a response back from Kirk Miller to proceed with the work.
Boilers
Jackson and Blanc submitted their inspection report. They have found that the AJAX boiler is in bad
shape. The manufacturer no longer supports parts for this unit, and it is far beyond its usable life
expectancy. Jackson and Blanc recommends replacing the AJAX boiler as well as the 2 domestic
raypak boilers.
A motion was made by Liz Hammond, seconded by David McNelis that we procure 3 bids within the
next two weeks, on replacing these three boilers. Motion passed 5-0

bike prior to May 31, 2022, or it will be donated or disposed of.
Dish Network

streaming via APPLE, Hulu, Netflix, etc. This is to help determine the next step that should be taken
regarding our cable tv contract with DISH Network, which ends in November 2022. The Board
encourages all residents to participate in this survey.
