OLD BUSINESS
Waste Management Damage to Bridge – The claim has filed been settled and the check issued.
Bridge abutment repair – Work has been finished. Large rocks from the subdivision will be used to finish the project. Old rotten timbers need to be hauled to dump.
Gomer Pond – The water level was high and overflowing into the adjoining lot. While Click was in the area, he created a new channel to the river dropping the level of the pond by 2 feet. The Culvert was also cleaned.
Spring Road Work – Desert Mountain will inspect the road and give the board its recommendation regarding strength of application whether more gravel is needed. Dust abatement and road work, culvert replacement on north end of Ludwig Drive and culvert cleaning will be in May. Material will be added to the road leading into the pond. Timing will be coordinated with CRG.
The Pond had developed a whirlpool which the beavers seem to have effectively sealed with muddy muck. The pond level has risen. Lyle Wilmar will assist with beaver mitigation.
Pick Bar Agreement – The original verbal agreement between the Board and the Pick Bar Ranch has been formalized. Both parties will sign the agreement.
NEW BUSINESS
Walker house plans – The information submitted was insufficient for the Board to approve the plans. Pat Le Roy will send a letter stating all of the information needed.

John Dustin moved that the document be approved, second by Shane French. Motion to approve was unanimous. This policy will be recorded and become part of the governing documents and posted on the website. The Policy will be posted at the mailboxes.
Unsightly lots, vehicles used as trash container – Many complaints have been made regarding unused or inoperative vehicles where some are used as trash and/or storage containers, and lots that have become unsightly due to trash or other materials stored on property which is a violation of CC&R #16 and #17. John Dustin moved that a letter be sent to the landowner and tenants, if applicable, stating that vehicles must be removed within a reasonable time frame or the Board will seek a Court Order to remove the vehicle. Shane French seconded the motion. Motion was approved unanimously. Guests present also expressed their concern about the appearance of the subdivision.
