April 2007 Board Meeting
Present: Bill Cook, Dale Knowlton, Judie Sarf, Gene McNeil, Kevin Danby, Mike Gaul, Dave Mayer, Dom Effray, & Jon Clark.
Call to order at 9:18 AM by our chairman, Bill Cook.
Introduction of new members and review of our code of conduct and oath of confidentiality with Mike and Dave who were unable to attend the Feb. Mtg.
Committee Reports:
Planning: Dave reported one well drilled this year with another in
progress.
Discussion about the types of structures to allow to be built on RR. Concern
over quality and upkeep of buildings and also the potential for properties being
used as rentals. Our covenants cover the type of buildings as well as their use,
in addition Kevin will send out a copy of the existing planning committee
proposal for non onsite stick built homes.
ATV: Bill read us the letter sent to some members reinstating with conditions,
their ORV riding privileges. The board has adopted a zero tolerance policy
towards violators of the posted rules.
Dale: Riders meetings will start next Sat. and the
expectation is that we will have a better summer in terms of riding etiquette as
a result.
Communication & Conflict: Judie is happy to report that there are no issues.
Activities: Dale is open to input from the membership. Bill: can get those
interested in golfing up the road at Lakeview for $25.00.
Old Business: Adult pool hours are from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM daily. Decided to
eliminate the underused adult only late pool hour on Saturdays to accommodate
the kids who will certainly appreciate the extra time.
New Business: Kevin reviewed the budget to date. So far we are on target with
expenses and income slightly ahead of plan. Lots sold out early and people are
getting on the list for next year. People are being referred to Trisha Bass
"our" real estate person. The NRL is selling a few high priced lots. Most
people are buying for recreational purposes and a few are planning to build.
Motion by Gene second by Dave to drop the offer of a referral award due to
problems with accountability. Motion carried.
Future Capital Projects: Time to start moving on other projects now that the RV
hookups and septic system upgrade is complete.
Needs include: More space for laundry facilities, showers, game rooms, heated
storage for chemicals and supplies, expanded pool area and a pool building for a
start. Decided to tackle a pool expansion project to start, will begin to
gather necessary information and costs.
Manager's Report: Kevin reports that the winter was a bit longer than last year
and the time was spent on minor kitchen update. Installed changing tables in the
bathrooms, that being a State requirement now. The greenhouse is here and we
plan to use it to start our flowers from seed, should result in a better
variety. Minor fence repairs as usual.
Pool repairs include grout and tile replacement with a new type of rubber paint for the kiddy pool.
Now that we are considered a class 'A' facility we need to get an evaluation of our water system. This will include a meter to monitor use as well as check valves on all our cross connections.
Reminder of the 180 day stays on property per county code.
Good of Order: Covered previously.
Calendar of Events: Next meeting at the clubhouse on July 28th @
10:00AM followed by the open meeting at 1:00PM after which the potluck follows.
Plan on an impromptu Pot Luck on July 4th
Motion to adjourn by Dale, second by Judie. Motion carried, see you at
Rimrock.
Respectfully submitted
