Old Business:
1. James Riner presented new written proposal for roadwork.
New Business:
1. Bill Ramsey brought to the board’s attention that Earl Cogle does not own a house in Blue Ridge Acres. Nor does he live in Blue Ridge Acres. According to the by-laws, to be a member of the board, the board member must be a permanent full-time resident. Discussion on the board voting Mr. Cogle off the board or ask him to resign. Don Orser will ask for Mr. Cogle’s resignation.
2. Art Hanson discussed that the by-laws also state that if a member misses 3 consecutive meetings, that person can be voted off the board as well. Hillary Cooley was the board secretary during the 2005 year, and missed many meetings. She also never presented meeting minutes for numerous meetings in 2005. Don Orser will also discuss this with her.
3. Art Hanson asked how to have a lot reclassified from Class III to Class I. Per Don Orser, that would be at the board’s discretion. Art owns a Class III lot that has a house that is not livable and wants to reclassify the lot. Elliot Simon made the motion to reclassify the lot, Don Orser seconded. This will be made retroactive for the 2006 road dues.
4. Gloria Climes wanted to know if any board members know when a house or lot goes on the market to make sure outstanding road dues are collected. Art Hanson suggested we perform a MLS search periodically to find out. Gail suggested BRA form a letter asking property owners to give notice of property sale.
5. Discussion on POD trailer at the house at the entrance. Art Hanson suggests BRA send a letter regarding the POD.
6. Mr. Diehl paid for a BRA phone book and has not received it. Isabelle Simon told him that they will be sent out shortly. Mr. Diehl also questioned what could be done about stray dogs. Bill Ramsey suggested calling the police/animal control.
Don Orser made motion to end the meeting, seconded by Bill Ramsey. The meeting was adjourned at 8:25 PM.
