Association Meeting Highlights – May 2014

by Richard D. Gainar, CEBS – Secretary RRA

The RomeRock Association Board of Directors met on May 1, 2014 with all Directors present except John Martin and including new Directors Jim Swartz and Ron Morris. Approximately 15 residents were also in attendance. President Dell Rogers congratulated and welcomed the new Directors and announced the Board officers that were elected in the executive meeting after April 26th Annual Meeting. The officers are Dell Rogers – President, Jim Swartz – Vice President, John Martin – Treasurer, and Rick Gainar – Secretary.

Maintence Director, Dan Mullins, and the maintenance team spent some time opening up outdoor restrooms, installing culvert pipes, delivering driveway base material to our Crosby-Cook Building, rounding up residents boats/docks that floated off after ice out, road clean-up and moving the dredge work boat to our marina to have the new outboard installed. Dan also stated that he still has summer positions available in the Maintenance Department and hopes to hire qualified residents who may be interested.

In his Lake Management report, Rick Gainar reviewed the April 23-24 Ohio Lakes Management Association (OLCA) meeting he attended including discussions with 6 other private lakes managers who are planning to mechanically dredge this year. No lake managers were planning to hydraulically dredge. Rick also described the Harmful Algae Bloom (HAB) brochures available at the RRA Office to residents interested in learning the facts about HAB instead the inaccurate information in being sensationalized by some. Ed Baitt reviewed the current progress on our barges at the builder’s site and reports the project on time and within budget for dredging to begin this summer as planned.

Club Reports included Marge Morris’ reminder of the Friends & Neighbor’s potluck dinner at the Clubhouse at 6:00pm on May 16 and invites all to attend. The Fishing Club’s Don Williams Memorial fishing tournament will be on June 8. The Club is planning to place perch in Flame Lake this year.

In the business segment of the meeting, Directors discussed the Aqua-Doc sales brochure sent to residents and whether residents are aware of the $1,000 fine for unauthorized application of chemicals into our lake.

Member comments and questions included need to review chemical-use fines, rules and procedures, better control over lawn fertilizer companies working in the Shores, and drainage problems at Callendar Road.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:15pm. Association Board’s next meeting will be on June 5, so mark your calendars. Hope to see you there!
