The committee has sprayed and weed whacked Crellin Lake and the community leach field also weed whacked the trail around Batterson Lake.

OLD BUSINESS:

NEW BUSINESS:

1. Appointment of new ARC Chairman Volunteer: ARC committee member Jerry Blanz, volunteered to chair the committee. Mike Mckay moved to appoint Jerry Blanz the Architectural Review Committee, Chairman. Unanimous motion passed.
2. Review of GVM Employee Handbook: Steve Horsmon brought attention to the fact that the handbook does not reflect current policies. Steve asked about vacation time for employees who work 10 years plus. Also, there is not a written funeral leave policy. After much discussion the Board formed a committee to review and revise the handbook. Committee members are: Water & Sewer Board Members, Jerry Wood and Tom Willard. Road & Recreation Board Members, Linda Adams, Mike McKay and Jack Carroll.
3. Grading Policy: Linda Adams mentioned that the driveway into the Glacier View office is in poor condition and maybe it should be a priority for repair. The manager stated that the roads are being graded and will reach this area soon.

   It is difficult to keep a regular grading schedule. There are 68 miles of road, and conditions such as staff availability, equipment, and moisture determine road grading priorities.

PUBLIC INPUT:

Adjourn at 4:56 pm
