Roads
As most of you are aware
CenturyLink upgraded their
connection speeds to the island in the
latter part of the summer. They
experienced a few delays which had us
pushing back some of our normal
summer roadwork such as striping.
The first approach by CenturyLink
was to dig up the existing utility
easements from the front entrance to
their junction boxes located across
from the clubhouse by the 9th green on
the golf course. The CenturyLink
project manager and their engineer
found problems with that approach.
We met again, and they suggested
digging down from the guardhouse
area toward the bulkhead and then
back up across the road near the boat
launch. Their third proposal was to
bring in equipment to drill under the
roads to minimize road and easement
disruptions. All options were
available to them under the same
conditions TIA initially imposed and
CenturyLink agreed to. CenturyLink
project managers assured us when they
left, we would not know they were
even here. We are going to hold them
to their word.
There are 15 patches on Island
Parkway where they dug holes to drill.
The patch works are unacceptable.
Some of them are uneven, sealing was
done over the paint restriping they had
done and, overall, the quality of the
work their subcontractor did is not
acceptable. Negotiations are currently
underway with them on what will be
done to put our roads back in good
condition. The project manager would
not budge on his position that they are
done. We have now gone to higher
levels of authority with CenturyLink
and will not stop until our roads are in
the condition they were when the job
started.
The new smaller speed bump at the
guardhouse should have been installed
already and the temporary removed.
The bump at 210th and Island Parkway
was also to have been installed. We
do not want to do any work on our
roads until we resolve this dispute
with CenturyLink. Any changes to
our roads or bumps may give them an
opportunity to dispute our claim and
would be unwise at this point.
All road paving operations have
ceased for the winter months. Because
of how this project dragged on, we
will have all winter to resolve the issue
with CenturyLink. We regret the
delays and hope you understand it is in
our best interest to delay the changes
in the short term to keep our roads in
excellent condition for the long term.

IMPORTANT COMMUNITY MEETING REGARDING YOUR PROPERTY RIGHTS
THURSDAY NOVEMBER 14. 7:00 PM Dieringer Elementary
STOP THE STATE FROM TAKING AWAY YOUR WATERFRONT PROPERTY
Every eight years the Shoreline
Management Act requires each local
jurisdiction to review their Shoreline
Management Plan. In this case it is
Pierce County. Because Tapps
Island is part of unincorporated
Pierce County the rules being
reviewed at this time will apply to
Tapps Island residents.
The Pierce County rules must be
approved by the Department of
Ecology. Local Council members
working through employees of
Pierce County must eventually
approve a plan acceptable to
Department of Ecology staff or the
Department of Ecology can impose
their own rules. If this seems like
being invited to a fight while
blindfolded you are starting to get
the picture.
The County has submitted a plan
which included no change in the 50
foot setbacks to waterfront
properties on Tapps Island and the
surrounding area. The Department
of Ecology wants to expand the
setbacks from the current 50 feet to
75 feet and in some cases depending
on vegetation as much as 150 feet.
Obviously an existing house can’t be
moved back another 25 feet from the
water but any vacant lots on the
island would become unbuildable
lots.
Residents must also understand
that there will be another review in
eight years. The Department of
Ecology has strengthened their
position every eight years and will
continue to do so every review.
There are restrictions on how much
a remodel can expand from the
existing foot print. It is anticipated
that in the future the restrictions on
remodels will make it more difficult
to remodel existing homes within
the 50 or 75 foot setbacks.
The Lake Tapps Community
Council has once again gathered as
they did to save the lake. The
community council has engaged
with our elected officials and
together they have reached out to
other communities including those
on Lake Washington who are
dealing with the same over
burdensome regulations which will
severely impact your right to use
your property.
The information gathered and
what needs to be done to move
forward will discussed by elected
officials and the Lake Tapps
Community Council on
November 14 at 7:00 PM at the
Dieringer Elementary School.
It is extremely important that
water front property owners be
present to understand what is at
stake and what you can do to help
stop this taking of your property
rights with little or no notification
to you as a waterfront land owner.
We are setting up e-mail lists and
other tools to keep the community
aware of changing issues as well
as when it is important to show up
and be heard. PLEASE attend
the meeting!

Thanks to All!
I want to take a moment to thank everyone involved in the Pasta Feed Fundraiser on
October 12th.
A special thanks to Jen, Cathy, Mary, and Jane who decorated and arranged everything to
make it happen. George at Al Lago’s and The Lakeside Grill for donating all the great food, and
all of the Island employees that helped. I feel like an academy winner that is forgetting so
many people. I have been on Tapps Island since 1988 and always loved the beauty out here,
but I am absolutely blown away with all the love I felt that night and I have not stopped smiling
since. It was so positive and uplifting and everyone who came out made me feel great. I am so
blessed to be a part of everyone's life. This is much more than a community, it is truly my
family and I love each and every one of you. Many, many thanks. Darren Painter

who were willing to invest their
time and expertise to make Tapps
Island a great place for all to live
and play.
There are a number of
committees and other events
which allow residents to get
involved in helping our
community. If you have an
interest in serving on any
committees please contact

Compliance Committee
Unauthorized Golf Course Use
What is unauthorized golf
course use? Rule VII states that
“only individuals authorized for
active play are allowed on the
Golf Course”. This means that it
may not be used for a quick
practice of your chipping and
putting shots. It is not a quick
short-cut to your neighbors on
the other side of the fairway. It is
not a place to play with your dog,
or a nice field to let your dog run
in. It is not a place to play catch
with your kids. In short, the only
use of the Golf Course is for an
authorized round of golf after
you have checked in at the pro
shop.
The Board from time to time
has reviewed its policy on the
Golf Course. One idea was to let
residents use the Golf Course for
practice when the course was not
in use. Another idea has been to
allow residents to use the Golf
Course path for evening or
morning walks or jogging. None
of these ideas have been
approved by the Board.
The Golf Course is a
business venture for the
Association. It also increases the
value of all homes on the island
and is another intrinsically
valuable feature of Tapps Island.
It is an asset that costs money to
maintain and requires revenue
from players to support. It also
must compete with all other golf
courses in the area for revenue.
So, for cost containment,
revenue production and safety of
our residents the Tapps Island
Golf Course has been restricted
to authorized active play only.
In addition “the waterway
areas within the Golf Course
fairways are off-limits to
swimming and boat moorage.
Diving or jumping from bridges
is prohibited.” This coupled
with the concept of not allowing
use of the Golf Course for any
other activity are additionally for
the sake of safety. Although a
PAGE 5
by the Pro Shop that there was a
pitbull barking at golfers.
Security chased it back to its
owner’s house. A fine was
issued.
10/25/2013, 211th Ave, 5:38pm,
A dog was reported acting
aggressive to a resident while
walking. Security responded.
Took the dog home and issued a
loose dog warning.
The above incidents reported
are just a representation of the
fun place to play, the golf course
area also has the potential to be a
very dangerous place when you
are not directly involved in the
game. When children and adults
are involved in other activities in
and around the Golf Course, they
are not situationally aware of golf
balls in play. Getting hit by a golf
ball would be a serious, and could
be a tragic, event. Please be
SAFE!
Send an email to compliance
committee@tappsisland.net if you
have any complaints or violations
that you want investigated. Your
identity will be held in confidence
by the committee members unless
your permission has otherwise
been obtained. We will follow up
on each complaint and give you a
response or request for more
information. If your issue is of an
immediate nature, call Security.
Rules should apply equally to
all members of the HOA and rules
that are not to be enforced should
be removed.

Tapps Island Association
BOARD MEETING MINUTES
October 31, 2013
The meeting was called to order by Sandy Shuman, President
at 2:00 P.M.
Roll Call/Attendance: Present: Sandy Shuman, Don Lisko, Shane
Pitman, Perri Nieman, Ralph Mason, Owen Gladfelder
Absent: Jon Bial, Rich Kumar
Also present-John Clark, General Manager
Approval of Minutes: Don Lisko moved that the minutes of the
Board meeting held on September 26, 2013 be approved. Owen
Gladfelder seconded. Approved.
Open Session: A few residents attended. One resident asked about
progress on the speed bump at the intersection of 210 th and
Island Park Way. All road work is on hold until Centurylink
gets the roads repaired to the satisfaction of TIA. Other
comments on the intersection included requesting the board to
review the height of plantings on the corner home to make sure
they were not obstructing the view.
One resident questioned the number of pets per household
discussion that had taken place at a prior board meeting and
tabled. A couple of board members explained that the issue was
discussed and voted on as a tabled issue. Because an item is
discussed at a meeting it should not be considered by the
community as an agenda of the board or any board member.
The board discusses issues that come from the community. In
this case there were complaints regarding some homes with a
large number of pets that are a nuisance to neighbors. The
covenants state pets may be kept in “reasonable” numbers.
Because of complaints the board had to have a discussion of
what is a reasonable number. Sandy Shuman thanked the
resident for addressing the issue so it can be shared with all of
the community to understand there are many issues brought to
the attention of the board from the community and the board
will address them in the most appropriate way possible. If there
is a vote it will also be recorded and included in the minutes.
Treasurer’s Report: Submitted by Shane Pitman
YTD ending September 30, 2013 we have a net loss of $15,268
compared to a net profit of $19,696 for the prior year. Our cash
position as of September 30, 2013 was $323,282. Total in the
Operating Account was $26,682 and $296,600 in the Reserve
Fund. The percentage of accounts receivable in the 90+ days is
24.4%, all of which are properties heading to foreclosure or
abandoned. Liens are in place and collection will occur when
the lenders take over the property. Legal action is underway for
collections on all accounts over 90 days delinquent.
Ralph Mason moved to approve the Treasurer’s Report for
August, subject to the annual audit. Owen Gladfelder seconded
the motion. Motion passed.
Proposed Changes to By-Laws or Rules and Regulations
All of the following proposed changes were circulated to the
membership with a recommendation for approval by the board
of trustees. The member of the home owners association voted
NOVEMBER 2013
to approve all of the following by an overwhelming
majority.
Proposed changes (in bold and underlined) to read:
The Tapps Island Association hereby adopts the
Washington State Motor Code, RCW Title 46, its
rules, regulations, and definitions. The RCW’s shall
be enforced by state, county, and designated Island
Security Officers. Violations of said requirements of
RCW Title 46 shall be punishable by State/County
citation or by a fine imposed by the Association to the
person or persons violating the provisions of RCW
Title 46. Moving violations do not require a first
warning under the Tapps Island Association fine
schedule. Due to safety concerns, a first offense may
result in a monetary fine. Second, third and
subsequent offenses will be consistent with the fine
schedule.
The Tapps Island Home Owners Association Board of Trustees
has reviewed our current By-Laws and has determined that in
its judgment there are areas of the By-Laws that need revision.
In order to approve these proposed changes a vote of the
members must take place. The Board recommends a vote of
“yes” on these proposed changes. All added words will be
bold and underlined. All words to be removed will be
crossed thru.
The proposed changes are as follows:
Article I, Section 3. ; Article VI, Section 7. ; and Article
IX all discuss in some fashion how the By-laws may
be changed. Article VI only says to refer to Article IX
and does not mention Article I. Since Article I
language and Article IX language do not match, the
Board would like to have the language in Article I
changed to match that of Article IX. The purpose is to
allow two-thirds vote of all members casting a vote, as
indicated in Article IX, and not just the members who
show up at the meeting. The proposed change to
Article I, Section 3. is as follows:
“The purposes for which this corporation was created may
be altered, modified, enlarged or diminished by the a
vote of two-thirds of the members. present at A
meeting will be duly called for such purpose, notice of
which such meeting shall be given in the manner
provided by the By-laws of giving of notice for the
election of trustees. Approval will require twothirds vote of the ballots cast by the members.”
Article II, Section 3. fails to include the “Protective
Covenants”. Whereas the Protective Covenants have
their own section on enforcement and are mentioned
in other areas of the By-Laws, it appears that mention
of them was inadvertently left out in this paragraph.
The proposed change to Article II Section 3. is as
follows:
“SECTION 3. In the event that any owner, his family or
guest shall violate the Articles of Incorporation, or By
-Laws or Protective Covenants of this corporation, or
the rules and regulations established by the Board of
NOVEMBER 2013
T H E I S L AN DE R
Trustees, or shall fail to pay the assessments levied by
the corporation, such owner may be prohibited from
using the facilities and enjoying the benefits of this
corporation for such period as the President of the
ASSOCIATION shall direct.”
Article IV, Section 1. States that there “shall be 5” trustees.
There are currently 8 trustees and at times in the past
there have been 9 trustees. This section must
accurately reflect the actual number of trustees. The
proposed change to Article IV, Section 1 is as follows:
PAGE 7
attendance. There is a “Fiduciary Duty for Board
Members and Oath” letter dated 1/9/2009 that the Board
feels trustees should sign once they are elected. There
is also a two page “Tapps Island Association Candidate
Information Sheet” dated 1/9/2009 that the Board feels
candidates should fill out and sign before they run for a
position on the Board of Trustees of Tapps Island
Association. Both of these documents are attached so
that you can read them. We thus recommend adding the
following new Section 7. to Article IV:
“SECTION 1. Corporate power of the corporation shall be
vested in a Board of Trustees. The number of trustees
who shall manage the affairs of the corporation shall be
five nine. At any meeting or special meeting called
therefore, the members may increase or decrease the
number of trustees to any number not more than nine or
less than three.”
“Section 7. All candidates running for a position on the
Board of Trustees of Tapps Island Association must
fill out and sign the ’Tapps Island Association
Candidate Information Sheet’ dated 1/9/2009, which
includes an agreement to sign the ‘Fiduciary Duty
for Board Members and Oath’ letter, prior to
putting their name on the ballot.
Article IV, Section 6. states that if a vacancy occurs on the
Board, then the Board elects a replacement trustee, but
the replacement trustee only serves until the next annual
meeting. The past practice of this Association has been
to let the replacement trustee serve out the remainder of
the associated term. The Washington state law states:
“A director elected or appointed, as the case may be, to
fill a vacancy shall be elected or appointed for the
unexpired term of his or her predecessor in office.”
Many associations take this approach and your trustees
are recommending that we take the same approach. The
Board also wishes to have the latitude to choose not to
replace the trustee if it sees fit, anytime up until the next
election.
The Board feels that any trustee who does not live up to their
oath as outlined in the “Fiduciary Duty for Board
Members and Oath” letter dated 1/9/2009 or fails to
attend meetings or actively serve on a committee as
outlined in the “Tapps Island Association Candidate
Information Sheet” dated 1/9/2009 should be removed
from office. This may be done by the members as
outlined in the bylaws. As the members are not always
aware of the daily workings of the Board, the Board
wishes to have the authority to remove a trustee who
does not fulfill his/her obligations as a Board member.
The Board wishes to be held to a high standard for this
recall vote to take place. We thus recommend adding
the following new Section 8. to Article IV:
“SECTION 6. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of
Trustees shall may be filled, by appointment, by a
majority of the remaining trustees. The person so
appointed shall hold office until the expiration of the
term for the trustee being replaced. next regular
meeting of the members of the corporation at which
annual or adjourned annual meeting the vacancies for
the remainder of the original terms, if any, shall be filled
by election by the members in the regular manner.”
“Section 8. Any trustee who fails to abide by the
requirements as outlined in the “Tapps Island
Association Candidate Information Sheet” or fails to
abide by the “Fiduciary Duty for Board Members
and Oath”, both dated 1/9/2009, may be recalled by
2/3 (6) vote of the Board of Trustees.
All of these changes will be incorporated into the governing
documents and updated on the web site.
General Manager’s Report: John Clark
Votes can be taken by the use of proxy, but there is no
formal process for giving a proxy. We thus recommend
adding the following new Section 7. To Article V:
Water system:
“Section 7. All proxies for any type of vote taken within
the Association shall be delivered to the President,
the Secretary, or the General Manager prior to the
start of any meeting or the deadline for a vote that
does not require a meeting. The proxy may be
delivered via electronic means or may be a writtensigned proxy.”
Ventilation work complete on treatment building.
The Board feels that any member wishing to run for a
position on the Board of Trustees of Tapps Island
Association must understand their fiduciary
responsibilities and make a commitment to participate
in the ongoing business of this association. This
includes committee responsibilities and meeting
CenturyLink Fiber Optic Project: We are disputing the repair
work on the roads caused by CenturyLink digging to install
fiber optic. Some of the final repair may not be able to be
complete until spring due to temperatures. The road repair is

Golf Committee:
Submitted by Shane Pitman
The committee met earlier in the month. Looking into replacing
what is left of the 150 yard marker trees. Many of those were
damaged in the last ice storm and have not recovered well.
We may use a unique bush or some other marking to replace
the trees. Looking into winter projects such as another bunker
or other improvement project for the golf course.
Landscape/Beautification Committee Report:
Submitted by Sandy Shuman
Our last meeting was held on October 21st with Karen Baker,
Sharon Piccolo, Lori Curnow, Jan Thomas, Sandy Shuman
and John Clark in attendance. The Yard of the Month winner
for September is Jim and Patti Lingnaw of 3414 204th Ave.
CT E.
A big thank-you goes to Karen Baker for planning and designing
a clematis vine addition to our past Earth Day project to help
screen and beautify the dumpster area. The implementation
of this plan is TBD and will take place soon. We have
received valuable input from the community about the
effectiveness of the compliance committee for improvement
of the beautification and landscape of the Island. The new
reader board plans were discussed. The committee also
discussed the hedge replacement between the lower club
house parking lot and Dr. Paul and Kris Sadleir's home. The
hedge being considered is the Italian Cypress. The
characteristics of this hedge tree was discussed in length. The
committee encourages the community to participate in the
Yard of the Month contest by casting your vote for the yard
that wow's you the most by the end of the month. E-mail
your vote/nomination to Sandy Shuman at

Safety and Security Committee Report:
Submitted by Perri Nieman
The safety light needs to be installed in the lower golf course
parking lot as soon as possible.
th
The hedge on the 210 corner is lower but still not within
compliance. Follow up with the homeowner.
Compliance Committee Report:
Submitted by Owen Gladfelder
Compliance committee heard an appeal for a repeat dog roaming
and on the golf course violation. Fine of $250.00 to remain in
place unless they get an electric fence or other containment
device. If they install the fence or other repair the fine can be
credited to that cost. Further violations on the same property
for the same offense will result in escalated fines from the
schedule.
Compliance Committee will continue to publish a monthly
article regarding our most often complained about topics in
NOVEMBER 2013
the newsletter monthly to heighten awareness of areas where
enforcement is in need of improvement.
Election Results: Submitted by Sandy Shuman
The board waited until after 3:00 PM for final tally of votes for
the board of trustees as required.
There were three candidates running for two available seats on
the board of trustees. Both terms are for four years. The
board thanked all three candidates for running and
appreciated their willingness to serve their community. The
two top vote counts went to Ralph Mason and John
Schneider. Ralph currently serves on the board. John
Schneider’s term will begin in January. Sandy encouraged
others to get involved with a committee or activities within
the community.
Old Business:
New Business: Update on the shoreline set back activities.
Article will be included in the Islander. There is a community
meeting to be held at Derringer Elementary on November 14
at 7:00 PM. It is very important to have a good turnout. It is
not just vacant lot owners who are going to be impacted by
this proposed change in shoreline set backs and buffers.
Adjournment: Owen Gladfelder moved to adjourn the meeting
at 3:45 PM. Perri Nieman seconded. Motion passed.
Meeting adjourned.
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday falling on the last Thursday
