DISCUSSION: on Campground Contingency Plan, the board wants to think about this issue, and this will be put on the agenda at a future meeting. Cancellation Fee was voted on, the board agreed that the cancellation fee will be 25% of fee or a minimum of $50 whichever is greater. The board wants Jim Hince contacted to rake the beach up and get rid of the debree that has washed up onto shore. The discussion turned to not having a skid steer and how much we don’t use the John Deere Tractor. The board said they would like to see what we could possibly get for the John Deere on a trade in for a skid steer. When Chris returns he can work on that and get back to the board with the information.

DISCUSSION: on the Sirens, I had sent the board members an email regarding the cost of the siren maintenance but no one could remember what the information stated. I will put the information on next month’s board meeting so they can review it next month, discussion tabled.
DISCUSSION: on the Well Site grant, the board was notified that we were awarded the grant for the well site drilling, the testing has started, and we will be continuing with the project. Davies will continue to look for other grants to complete the well drilling project.

DISCUSSION: with resident Brent Fenner, he was sent a letter informing him that he cannot be loitering in the campground, nor harassing the campground attendant. He wanted the record set straight about how everything went down when he was supposedly harassing the attendant. He stated that he was trying to leave the camp-ground when about seven people surrounded them and blocked their exit. It was noted but he was still warned that he had violated several of our ordinances and this would not be tolerated.
