Reports:
President – no report
1st Vice President (Water System) – Dave Tyler
Wells are running fine. The Transfer switch come in and have a call into ACEO to handle the inspection on the installation. Dave is finding out when ACEO can come on site. We will have to hire an electrician to do the actual installation of the switches. One of the water lines broke on 140th near 137th, these are being repaired. At the Well House, we are digging around it to put in new line. Will be raising the wall at this Well House due to erosion that is slowly washing the ground under the current wall away. Putting gravel around this area to increase proper drainage.
We are finishing up Pump House #2. Wells 1 and 2 have been tested for water contamination and mineral content as part of regular inspection process.
VFDs are not working the way Dave Tyler wants them to run. Pump House 4 is running occasionally now due to the dry weather. Some blow offs need repaired
Tony Trotter will be continuing to handle LOTWs Backflow testing for now. His back is doing better but he is not sure how long he will be able to continue checking backflows. We need someone to learn about the backflows, take the class and get their licenses soon. The cost to hire an outside company is about $100 per backflow or box. We are not paying this much to Tony.
2nd Vice President (Maintenance) – Ed Nielsen
We have put up the new signage at McGowan Park and need a hole dug at Pete Rix Park for the second signpost.
Currently we are cutting down dead trees at Pete Rix Park and need volunteers to help clean up the limbs.
We have 40 Environmental Blocks (Large stackable blocks) being shipped to McGowan Park. These will be used to stop the bank erosion.
People are asked to please put fish back into the lake if the have eggs. This increases the population of our fish without the need for extra fish drops.
A community grill is being put up at Pete Rix with an aluminum trash can for ashes.
