COMMITTEE REPORTS:
W&S Rules & Regulations Committee: Keith Weeks gave an overview of proposals and recommendations proposed by the committee. The draft of all rules and regulations, including the policy for non-compliance, was given to the Board for formal action.
This Board action was tabled to New Business.
Gene Watt moved to accept the Water & Sewer Rules & Regulation Committee Charter as presented. (enclosed) Unanimous in favor of motion.
OLD BUSINESS:
Kent Christen reported that the Green Mountain deep bury project is complete. The final finances are still pending due to vendor billing. The project could be over budget slightly due to excessive blasting and sleeve expense. The 7th and 12th filing leach field applications are on Larimer County’s agenda for 9/26/02. The 12th filing sewer system is 50% complete, with dollar estimates within budget. 3,300 feet of pipe is excavated and bedded.
NEW BUSINESS:
The S.I.A. Management Group has authorized well #3 in the 12th
filing to supplement water reserves.
The site was selected to utilize the existing pump house facility and
minimize pipeline costs via a shallow drain back production line. Discussion was held on the current late fee
of $15 per month on accounts in arrears.
The Board upheld the late fee structure after determining property
owners were notified of the policy. The
Board viewed a request by Frank McCormick to extend water service to Filing: 12
Lot: 109 as incomplete, and no action was taken. Discussion was held on the default of the contractor for the
Quandry Court water and sewer extension.
The extension was not accepted by Glacier View Meadows due to leakage of
an estimated 1 g per minute. The Board
determined it is not the responsibility of the Association to fix the
infrastructure, and instructed the manager to continue demands on the excavator
involved. Gene Watt moved to mail
the edited version of Water & Sewer Rules and Regulations, with applicable
attachments to all improved properties within the mandated augmentation area by
certified mail, return receipt requested.
Gene Watt, Frank Winter, and Jerry Ryan voted in favor of motion and
Lynn Johnson abstained. Motion passed.
PUBLIC INPUT:
Members of the North Rim Association voiced concern on their being required to meter water usage due to the size of their properties, which average 35 acres. Their contention stated these properties were intended to be exempt from the augmentation plan, and should not be metered or restricted. The Board took points under advisement for further research.
Meeting Adjourned.
