President’s Comments – Oct 2012

The Board voted to replace our present weed harvester, which is approximately 20 years old, and in need of much repair. The new weed harvester will cost $60,000.

For those residents that wish to dredge around their docks during the lake drawdown, we have a solution for you. All that is needed is for you to fill out a simple form at the office indicating your name and address, the location of the dredging and where you intend to put the spoils from the dredging. The office will inspect the site and approve or reject the application based on where you want to put the spoils and whether or not a wetlands is involved.

The 2013 budgeting process is in process. No increases in dues or assessments will be necessary. The Administrative Committee is diligently working on cost savings plans for the Association.

For those of you that have a metal detector and enjoy searching for buried treasure, now’s your chance to help the association determine the locations of any buried gas pipelines on the Manzo Property.

We need to determine if there are any buried pipelines and plot their locations. Please call the office and get in touch with me.

The driveway on RL40 was completed recently using only our own maintenance staff. We saved over $4000 by doing it in-house as opposed to contracting it to an outside firm.
