  • Curt moved that the minutes be approved and Terry Rubin seconded this motion. The Board voted to approve the previous meeting minutes.

 

Water board report

  • Jess Morris approved to be a Water Utility Commissioner. He clarified that the Water Commissioners’ duties are to support Jose Escalera in his role as Water Utility Manager. Need replacement wellhead at pumphouse and heat pump info. They have cost estimates, but the Board asked for further bids. Jose Escalera strongly advised residents to install a PRV (pressure releasing valve). Pressure at the top of the hill is at ~40-45 pounds per minute and ~80 pounds per minute on the Spit.
  • Jess Morris reports that the Water Utility has $140,000 in their general budget for upgrades and a reserve for catastrophic events of $240,000. They are currently providing lighting and electricity to the new shed.
  • The Water Commission is creating written guidelines for easier access to facilities as needed in case of emergencies or the need for immediate access by non-water board members.
  • The Water Commissioners proposed, and the Board approved, $22,000 for maintenance of the PRV station for monitors and alarms, as well as to replace the wellhead in the pumphouse and the heat pump. Jess will seek more bids for cost comparison to complete light and electrical updates to the new storage/pump shed. The Board will review updated estimates once all cost estimates are received.
  • The Water Utility has been a separate entity for more than 20 years and finances cannot be commingled, though Marilyn Bryant reports that finances are reported to the federal government as one entity. They are two separate but interdependent entities.

 

Architecture committee report

  • Carl Scott reports that no new permits are being processed at this time, as no new requests have been submitted.

 

Marina report

  • David Janowski installed a new video camera system at the Marina, but it is not working as expected. He is now researching new options and will coordinate with the Board re: installation, ongoing monitoring and operating costs.

 

Treasury report

  • Dave Suveges reported that our current balance is $1,035,473 with $70,720 outstanding water and service dues.

 

Miscellaneous discussions

  • Radar Speed Limit Signs: Andy Lingle proposed the installation of solar powered radar speed signs such as the radarsign T-600 Solar Powered radar speed sign, which has an approximate cost of $4200 per sign as per the estimate shared by Andy. Andy recommended that a sign be placed on the south entrance to the Community on South Point past Thorndyke, and on either side of the hill where the houses start on Thorndyke for a total of 3 signs. He will also investigate other similar tools and cost estimates for those as a comparison for the Board. Board agreed this is a need for community safety.
  • Culvert: Carl Scott reported concerns re: the culvert efficacy at the south end of the Spit as it appears to be deteriorating and may need a sleeve to reinforce it. Carl will look into options and cost estimates.
  • Notifii Connect resident communication: Dave Suveges proposed that the community set up a robocall system, Notifii Connect or similar, for easier notification re: local/community emergencies and events. This can be linked to each resident’s phone number or email. Residents can opt in or out at any time. The cost to the community would be $99/month. Dave will explore information re: use of Community Directory as it is updated this year to set up a possible trial. Dave asks that we ensure that all contact information for our home owners is updated and as accurate as possible for this proposed trial.
  • Road safety along Thorndyke Road - Lynne Mackey-Moseley raised concerns about the lack of lighting at the bus stop on the corner of Eagleview and Thorndyke Roads. Lynne would like to approach Jefferson County about the possibility of the installation of a streetlight at this corner. Also, the 25 mph “Hidden Driveways”  sign is located after 3 hidden driveways on Thorndyke as you enter the Community from traveling north from Coyle. The Board agreed that Lynne could draft a letter to Jefferson County on behalf of the Community regarding these issues and forward to Curt for review.

 

Meeting adjourned at 6:15.
