Dam: Paul Scherrer said Josh Hogan is going to brush hog the dam for $1500 by the end of the month. After it is done David Mikusch will cut it each month. The left over dirt and rock from the sewer company will be put up against the dam. He will put fill dirt on top to make it smooth.
There are a couple hundred trees that they are removing. There are currently ten root balls by the burn pile. If they are small root balls they can go into the burn pile. The larger ones will be hauled away.
Paul is keeping a watch on the leak at the spillway. When Mark Easter comes in to do the channel, he will over figure a yard of concrete and put it on the corner to help stop the leak at the spillway.

Water Quality: Chuck Nitsch said the M5 manhole has been taken out and a new custom structure was put in at the dam. There is a cast iron pipe across the spillway and an abandoned concrete pipe over it. When they stopped using it they did not remove the concrete pipe. They put concrete over the end of the manhole. It is now destroyed. The other end is at the spillway. He said that when we drop the lake he will plug the end by the spillway.

Chairman Brad Riggs said to get an electrician from them also. John Ossenfort said that the line from the shed to the guard shack needs to be raised by the electrician also.

Publication/web: Bob Campbell said we need a new line and buoys. The money was allocated last year and Bob will get the job done.

Finance: John Ossenfort said he sent off a list to Mr. Norrick about the past due accounts. If we want to force a sale on a property we may or may not get our money because the first $15,000 the owner gets, the lender gets the mortgage still owed amount, and real estate taxes must be paid. If there is any money left we can get paid. Mr. Norrick is willing to this if we want to do so, but he does not recommend a garnishment.

It will cost anywhere from $500 to $1000 to research. Bob Campbell stated that we should find out if there is a precedent in regards to allowing renters.

For the 5 or 6 people living behind the dam, you must get the owners names, phone numbers, and a list of who all live in the home. This goes into a data base. If the dam has a failure you must call 911, the local police and county sheriff’s office, highway department, and the state department. It must be updated yearly.At the spillway there has been a chunk of concrete that fell off. It was put there in 1988. It goes from two to five inches in depth from the door to the dam.

OLD BUSINESS

Chairman Brad Riggs enquired if everyone had received their tri-party agreement. Paul Scherrer stated that the “no rent” is attached to our property deed and we do not need to approve the tri-party agreement. Chuck Nitsch enquired if the property owner is supposed to ask for permission to rent their property from the board. If there is a no vote then they are denied. Bob Campbell said the restriction runs with the land and the deed. Whether a person has been renting here for 20 years or not they have been breaking the restriction that no one is enforcing. Unless there is a state or federal case that applies specifically to this question we have every right to not allow renters. He recommends that we talk to Mr. Brandon Mooniery. Chairman Brad Riggs asked Bob Campbell to talk to Mr. Mooniery. Chairman Brad Riggs said that #8 says you can not rent unless you have board approval. The tri-party agreement was tabled until next meeting.

Chairman Brad Riggs had the secretary mail a letter to Mark Matousek regarding his sheds.

Chairman Brad Riggs had a letter for Harley & Constance Hargis about whether they had a permit. Connie replied that they were removing and replacing the room. Mark McKenna, the building chairman, made a decision that they did not need a permit.

President Mike Zavorka stated that we should see if the company will come out and pick up the bobcat. It needs the fuel gauge fixed, two lights are broken on it, it needs servicing, and fluid & oil change. Chairman Brad Riggs asked Paul Scherrer to call them and have them come out and pick up the bobcat. At that time he should enquire about the need for forks for the bobcat & whether or not we get credit for the backhoe attachment.

NEW BUSINESS

President Mike Zavorka asked if everyone received the e-mail about who is on what committee. He stated that we are required to have 5 committees and we have 13.

President Mike Zavorka stated that the sewer debt to the corporation is approximately $35,000. With the new rate increase that will go into effect next year, He believe we should be receiving $1,000 a month instead of the $100 we currently are receiving. In 18 months we will be out of money. Connie Hargis stated that as long as she has a letter by Wednesday it will be read at the meeting.

Nick Terry stated there is some griping about the remotes and cards getting to residents. Would the secretary take over sending out the remotes and cards. He would just need to know the activation numbers so they could be traced when there is a problem at the gate. President Mike Zavorka inquired about how many cards can be transferred from prior resident to current resident. Nick Terry stated everyone received two free cards which can be transferred to new owners. The form on the website needs to be changed to $50 for remotes and $20 for cards.

  • Docks-Chairman Brad Riggs recommends that we send a letter to Jake Taylor about not having proper documentation about the Furtaw’s dock and as such it will be turned back over to the Furtaw’s. The dock audit that was done does not show who is assigned to each dock. The next step is to send a letter asking the residents if they own the dock. If the dock needs repair then they will be asked to repair it. Then we will look into numbering the docks. He now has pictures of all the docks.
  • Security-Connie Hargis stated she received a letter from the prosecuting attorney declining to prosecute Billy Tebeau. He and 3 of his friends were caught on tape trespassing onto lake property. They confessed to pushed the gate arm up. The call box incident with Steve Garvagna, he hit the box on Sunday and called Nick Terry and left a message. Nick Terry let Connie know on Tuesday that he called about paying for the repair. The Garvagna bill will be somewhere between $1200 and $1500. The second one, Atlas restoration came in to do repairs at Alex’s house and they took out the call box completely. It will run between $5,000 and $6,000. If you have anyone coming in with a vehicle larger than a van have them use the center lane and get out, call, and punch in the code. Chuck Nitsch stated someone cut the lock off of the Vreeland Rd. gate and they put a new lock on it. He cut that lock off and replaced it.
  • Dam-Paul Scherrer said the concrete spillway will be repaired in the summer. September 7, 2010 will be when we pull the gate to drain the lake. It will take about 10 days to drop. If you need to do anything to repair your dock or seawall that now is the time. If you are putting in a new dock see Brad Riggs. Every 5 years we lower the lake 4 feet.He got 2 loads of gravel for $466.37. We have wood chips for mulch. They are available at the burn pile. President Mike Zavorka asked if we could burn other than Saturday or Sunday? Paul stated it had to be done then because of the weather.
  • Water Quality- Chuck Nitsch stated he drained pond 2 and will clean up around it. Also the logging is done and he will clean up where they were.The ditches hold leaves and if you don’t burn the leaves right away they will get wet and then they stop the water from running in the ditches. There are ditches around the lake undercutting the road. He put rock in the ditches on his property, which he paid for. The material to do the job is $2-$3 a ft. He said out here along the entry road the ditches are getting deep. We will need a load of concrete and rock to repair it. It will cost about $2,000. Another place he would like to repair is at South Lake Dr by Algonquin Dr. The guard rail needs repair and make a shoulder. One other place that needs repair is by John Douglas’s house.
  • Publication/Web-Bob Campbell inquired how often do we send out a newsletter? President Mike Zavorka stated 2 to 4 times a year. Anything that can be sent out electronically rather than by mail is terrific. He is working on how many can be sent out electronically rather than by mail. He inquired about a presidents report, the Rod & Gun Club information, when will snow plowing begin, fire wood from Bud Moore, speed limit, information about the back acres, culvert maintenance, EMA training, and future events. He asked about posting the last approved minutes. Chairman Brad Riggs said that would be fine. He asked about posting the treasurer’s report. Chairman Brad Riggs stated that we talked about that a last meeting and it is not necessary.
  • Bud Moore-Nothing.
  • Roads/grass-Nick Terry had nothing.
  • Beautification-Larry McKenna had nothing.
  • Finance-John Ossenfort said he will put a notice of lien on 7 people next week that the lawyer had contacted and they never paid their assessments. President Mike Zavorka wondered when we are going to start suing delinquent property owners.
