Minutes from 10-20-12 Board Meeting

Present:  Lorraine Conard, Linda Hughes, Frank Moskos, Terry Rose, and Linn Damon

A Motion was made and seconded accepting Linn Damon as the 5^th Board Member.

Linda Hughes reported that Ace Hardware will deliver salt at no charge. She also checked with Boyd Tree Farm on costs to clear sides of road. $65 per hour at an estimate of 10 hours = $650. For leaf removal on sides of road: $30 per hour. No estimate on how long it would take. Custom paving gave an estimate to do both for $4500.

It was decided to stay with Clear Blue Paving for snow removal and salting.

Lorraine will check with Bill Cannon about the request by the other attorney for Fishers to not go to court regarding the road issue at top of Apple Creek. They wanted to settle out of court but a new letter to Mr. Cannon from said Attorney states differently. Lorraine will call the people who own property in question at top of mountain to see if they are aware of problem. Motion was made by Linn Damon and seconded by Frank Moskos to have a survey completed on the area in question.

It was discussed on possibly getting another attorney to represent our Homeowners Association. Terry will send out and email to the Newcomers Club to see if anyone can recommend someone.
