The June meeting of the JFD #1 was held June 21, 2022 at the Deborah Rawson Library. The minutes are as follows:

Attendees: Marilyn Marshall, Fred Lavenberg, Drew Bulfer, Jeff Earl, Brian Stevens, Chris Laskowski, Charlie Windisch.

Meeting was called to order at 7:08pm

1. Minutes from the May 2022 meeting were approved.
2. Bill payment status: All households are paid for the second quarter.  One household still owes for the first quarter of this year.
3. Due to continuing issues with late payments, the board has agreed to follow and enforce the statutes with regard to late payments and termination of service. The statutes, as applicable to JFD #1, can be found at jerichofoothills.org/foothills-water-system, Water System Rules + Regulations. (Note: These regulations mirror the state regulations.)
4. The new greensand filter is in place and is operational! Work was completed by Culligan Water and LaPlante Plumbing.
5. Financials: Brian Stevens reported our balance sheet is in good shape. We do have some dollars in reserve, but this is needed as a pipe breakage (unpredictable!) can easily cost many thousands of dollars.
6. Loan to pay the greensand filter bill: We do have an application on file with the state to tap into the State Drinking Water Fund. We are trying to get the approved amount bumped up to cover the entire cost of the project.
7. Culligan and SOS (Simon Operation Services) have both recommended we purchase a commercial grade dehumidifier for the pump house. This will remove excess condensation from the pump house and prevent corrosion of the greensand filter structure. The board unanimously agreed to authorize the purchase the dehumidifier.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:20pm

Attendees: Jeff Earl, Drew Bulfer, Anne Kroll Lerner, Charlie Windisch

Meeting was held at the Deborah Rawson Library; called to order at 7pm.

1. Second quarter bill status: 5 households are currently delinquent; one household is awaiting aid from the State. Second notices have gone out. (As a side note, residents are strongly encouraged to pay on time! Water bills should be treated as any other utility bill. Delinquency can result in your water being shut off.)
2. Third quarter bills: Notices will be sent out for most residents via email. Instructions will be included, but for the most part will be the same as for the US Mail notices. “Water BIlls Due” signs have been purchased and will be set up at the entrance to the neighborhood mid June. 
3. Greensand filter replacement: The work is scheduled for June 16th. There should be no impact on the neighborhood water supply.
4. State Drinking Water Funds: The committee continues to pursue tapping into the state funds, which would provide low interest loans and possible loan forgiveness, for the greensand filter project.
5. Curb stop replacement: Several valves were flagged as potentially problematic last summer. The committee is in the process of getting a quote refresh to have this work done (most likely in the Fall of this year).

Meeting was adjourned at 7:40pm. The next meeting will be Tuesday, June 21 at 7pm.
