Roger Giallorati presented the Treasurers Report. There is still some confusion with Porta-Potty bill ongoing. Tax information has been sent to preparers. The report was approved as written.

LEGAL ACTIVITY:

Karyle Horton has been in contact with the Attorney of HCDC. She has reported there will be a hearing scheduled to approve the level of the Lake to be increased. Question still remains why we need to have hearings to adjust level when it is written in original deeds. Karyle will inform us when the hearing is scheduled.

NEW MEMBER ACTIVITY:

Jim (via Treasurers report) reported that the membership drive has maintained status quo. To date there are 177 members. Roger has written an Annual Letter to help increase membership to be mailed with bills. Draft has been sent out to all for approval. Several modifications have been suggested – GOA goes away with ownership will be added to letter.

AQUATIC LIFE:

Clarke Aquatic had experienced a delay in treatment of the lily pads due to a change in state law. They missed treating the Lily Pads this year. We need to stay on top of Clarke Aquatic next year.

DREDGING:

Dredging is in progress. Moving very slow – now due to weather. He has a dump truck sitting on site to move dirt from area by the store. Still needs to dredge by Jim’s lots. To dredge more of the Lake in the future we will need to raise a lot more money. Needs to be on the Agenda for the Annual Meeting.

PARKS:

Terry Rupp has found stakes on park lot in Monte Carlo. Still need to discuss surveying the parks at the Annual Meeting to add money to the budget. We need to further discuss maintaining grass mowing on all Parks.
