Notes from Residents:

Pat Watson wrote to notify us that Lot 38 is for sale.

Residents in subdivision 2 have voiced that the ditch and culvert on the north end of Ludwig needs attention.  We did not fix and replace that culvert due to lack of funds.  The HOA is out of money for the year.  We will put that in the budget and take care of it in the summer. Paul Mahaney will do some work on it.
