Keeping expenditures down for the Association is an ongoing concern. Over the course of the Summer and Fall, the possibility of having a handyman here at Kenthill Townhomes was discussed at homeowners meetings. Nothing has been decided as of this point in time. In the course of investigating different ways of reducing costs for the Association, and this was one idea that has come up. Many Associations throughout the Puget Sound area employ a handyman to do small jobs at their condominium complexes (leaving the larger, and sometimes more difficult jobs for more experienced contractors). This will be discussed further at the upcoming Annual Meeting.
