REVIEW OF MEETING MINUTES DATED JANURARY 17th, 2001

Jerry Eubanks moved to accept the minutes as written, Ralph Goble second.  UNANIMOUS.

 

TREASURES REPORT

        Alinea Coy reported bank accounts balanced thru November, 2000, $10.99 in arrears.  She stated the reconciliation of Water and Sewer financials from October, 2000, to present have been delegated to the bookkeeper, Deanna Snell.  Full reconciliation is expected within 30 days.

        The issue was raised to reallocate funds from operating to capital but was tabled until account reconciliation is current.

        Ralph Goble moved to purchase a new septic truck with plates, taxes, registration, and all options (Jake Brake) included, cost not to exceed $35,000.00.  Jerry Eubanks second.  UNANIMUOS.

 

MANAGERS REPORT

        Donald Wexleman presented the Board with a preliminary proposal for a new 12th Filing Community Water System.  Discussion ensued as to testing and estimate parameters required by the Board before serious consideration would be given to the project.

        The issue was tabled to next months agenda for further information and tentative county cooperation.  The lots are currently deeded private well, legal consideration must be researched, I.E., does G.V.M. have the authority to implement change to a Community System.

        The 12th Filing Sewer System is on hold due to State mandated distance parameters.  Research is underway to meet statute and still economically install and  maintain the system.  A meeting is scheduled with the S.I.A. to establish directives toward completion of the project.

        The manager petitioned the Board to reallocate Capital Improvement Funds 2000-2001 from the Maroon Bells Deep Bury toward completion of Green Mtn. Dr. and the subsequent installation of the 7th Filing Leach Field.  The two projects correlate and would be economically advantageous to complete simultaneously.

        Ralph Goble moved to allocate Capital Improvement Funds from the proposed 2000-2001 Maroon Bells Deep Bury to Green Mtn. Dr. and the 7th Filing Leach Field, with completion of upper Wetterhorn if funds remain.  Jerry Eubanks second.  UNANIMOUS.

 

NEW BUSINESS

        A private developer submitted a proposal to install to G.V.M. specs, with individual cisterns per lot, the completion of E. Quandry Ct. water and sewer system, contingent upon the waiver of all plant improvement fees applicable.  Concern was expressed by several Directors that upon completion the system would be deeded to G.V.M., the current system was of limited capacity, and new development would severely strain production.  Manager directed to research supplemental storage or supply sources, as well as usage restriction.

        Discussion held on potential replats of Community System lots.  Future improvement and maintenance revenue would be lost, item tabled pending research.

        Water and Sewer assumed half the cost of office cleaning with Road and Recreation, effective immediately.

 

OLD BUSINESS

        The Board authorized the mailing for the recall of both the Water and Sewer and Road and Recreation Board of Directors to be held on April 28th, 2001.  Minor word changes suggested, as well as the following: ballots to include equal number of blanks for Directors positions open; boxes adjacent to all candidates names and write in nominees blanks, candidates listed in random order, with full instructions (to also be given verbally) on voting policies and procedures.

 

Ralph Goble moved to adjourn, Jerry Eubanks second.  UNANIMOUS.
