The fish plant will be May gtn_ Ed will put up “no fishing signs” advising that from May 9th to the day of the derby (May 20th) no one is allowed to fish so the fish can acclimate.
Old Business: Lot 60 has inquired as to the status of his compliance issue. A letter was sent to him outlining our recommendations.
New Business: There was a discussion on having HOACS draft letters and send them for us stating that (1) if $1,000 remains unpaid and no payment arrangements were made after a year of delinquency then a Notice of Intent to lien & Collect will be sent to the owners. A $35 charge will be charged to the owner. (2) If an owner had $120 or more in delinquent assessments or fees owing the owner would get a Notice of Intent to shut off their water and give them only 30 days to bring their accounts current. (My notes do not reflect that these two items were ever voted on.)
Steve Shobe, who is on the Architectural Committee, advised he has received calls, etc. inquiring if we allow shipping containers and/or short-term rentals (i.e. Air B&Bs) in Lake of the Woods. There was a general discussion and Steve provided us with Bulletin #82 on Residential Shipping Containers, a copy of which is attached. Increased insurance rates were of big concern, as well as vandalism rates, etc. There is a concern that people who don’t own the properties will not be worried about caring for our lake, our parks or our amenities. Steve advised us that on April 17th at 6:00 pm at the tractor shed the Architecture Committee will hold a meeting to discuss issues and make recommendations for the AC Declaration. All members are invited to attend.
Meeting was adjourned at 7:05 pm. Minutes submitted by:
