Prior to the meeting being called to order, Richard Diedrich presented an update on the bridge grant progress. Danielle Coronado, Upper Pine River Fire Dept., and Richard met November 1, 2017, with BP representatives Kiki Mosley and John Mummery. They presented the pictures and a short video of the recent high water and the debris jammed on the bridge pier. They gave a rundown on why we need a new bridge and our collaboration with the Fire Department. BP was interested in the short video of the high water two years ago and the deteriorating condition of the bridge. Mr. Mummery gave us a detailed review of the BP interests in the area and the history of their property acquisition adjacent to the bridge. They were more than happy after the presentation to grant easement for bridge crews and staging areas on their property. Any old well shafts in that area will be plugged in the summer of 2018, in advance of any potential construction. BP is willing to pay their fair share based on the properties they own. Mr. Mummery suggested that we look into Energy funding grants which fund 100 % of the cost. Richard will contact Gwen Lachelt, county commissioner.
Richard Diedrich also addressed a fire mitigation concern that O. D. Perry has with Lot 90 on Richards Drive. Richard has served as the Subdivision‘s Fire Wise Ambassador and contacted companies who do fire mitigation and the owner of the lot, Joel Brame, who was very cooperative. Joel Brame will qualify for a 50 % reduction in cost of fire mitigation. There will be no need to haul out debris with the machinery that will be used for the mitigation.
The Board thanked Richard for his continued work on the bridge grant project and his willingness to see the fire mitigation on Lot 90 to a workable conclusion.
