New Business: President Beth Lonnquist spoke on several subjects to the assembled residents and entertained questions and comments from them.
She gave a report on the house on Spruce Road that has been called both Courage to Change and Soaring Hope Recovery Center, what the Board has accomplished, what she has witnessed at the home, governmental agencies that have been contacted.
Fire mitigation was discussed, as well as the chipping program during the annual spring cleanup.
Voluntary dues were discussed and there were no objections to the proposed increase to $50 per year and some thought it should even be higher.
There have been reports of shots being heard on the Ranch and paint balls being fired. At least one automobile had a shattered window. The president advised residents to notify the sheriff any time shots are heard.
A major point discussed was the importance of the covenants and by-laws being updated which will prevent future issues such as the house on Spruce Road and the updates will give the Board more discretion on decisions. With Board approval at the September Board meeting, the revised and updated covenants and by-laws will be printed and mailed to residents. It was noted that 51% of residents must approve for changes to take place.
Thanks to Treasurer David Weber for the use of his grill for cooking meats and for Michelle Miller acting as the head chef presiding over the grill.
