Notes from the November 6, 2004 Board Meeting

These are my notes from the November 6 board meeting:

• Septic system update -- Don's Plumbing looked at the entire system and determined that the flanges were rusted. The exit piping was also rusted and filled with sand preventing the flow into the second tank. The pump motor appeared to be fine. Don's Plumbing replaced the flanges and cleaned the exit piping. After the flanges were replaced the pump was tested and appears now to push sand through. The problem seems to be fixed. Bill suggested adding yeast to the septic system on a monthly basis. Jerry agreed to pick up some and set up a schedule with a few of the permanent resident owners.
• The sprinkler system was closed down for the season.
• The snow contract was signed. Snow will be plowed whenever the snowfall is 2 inches or more. Permanent residents will have their walks shovelled. Northwoods reminded us that some additional owner cooperation would be helpful when plowing. He will plow one side of the lot, then the other. Owners could help out by moving their cars from the side being plowed.
• The siding replacement project hasn't been started yet.
• Officer assignments for the 2004/2005 period were decided: Jerry will continue as President, Mike will assume the Vice Presidency, Kirk will continue as Treasurer, and Bob will continue as Secretary.
