The meeting was held on 9/20/2022 at the Deborah Rawson Memorial Library.

Attendees: Ann Lerner Kroll, Fred Lavenberg, Chris Laskowski, Jeff Earl, Brian Stevens, Charlie Windisch.

The meeting was called to order at 7:06pm

1. The minutes from the August meeting were approved.
2. Water bills payment status: One household has not paid the 3^rd quarter bill yet. The committee is working with another household towards paying the 3^rd quarter bill in stages. About half of the households have paid the 4^th quarter bill. (Note: 4^th quarter bills are due October 1^st !)
3. The excavation to fix the mid summer leak still needs to be filled in. A call will be made to Chris Wells (excavator) to do this.
4. Financials: Brian reported that income (water bill payments) and expenditures are tracking according to the norms.
5. We are tentatively approved for our loan from the state Drinking Water fund to cover the replacement of the greensand filter. One outstanding action item is a vote is needed by the neighborhood to authorize the borrowing of the money. More details to come as to how and when this “bond vote” will occur.
6. The circuit panel box in the pump house needs replacing. The committee will get two estimates and schedule the work.

Comments/questions invited.

Attendees: Drew Bulfur, Fred Lavenberg, Brian Stevens, Jeff Earl, Marilyn Marshall, Charlie Windisch.

Meeting was called to order at 7:05pm.

1. The minutes from the July 2022 meeting were approved.
2. Third quarter water bill payment status: One household has not paid as of the meeting date. Further action will now be taken in an effort to obtain payment.
3. Autopayment – The committee decided to put off for at least a quarter any additional steps of an autopay approach to paying the water bills.
4. Fourth quarter bills will be sent out early September. Bills will be due October 1st.
5. Communication between pump house and the reservoir: The communication takes place using a cell phone approach. The radios were upgraded in early August. This will improve the communication between the two buildings and lead to a constant water supply at the reservoir.
6. Greensand filter replacement cost: A partial payment ($15K) was made to Culligan Water from our reserves. The rest will be covered by the forthcoming loan from the State Drinking water fund.
7. Application to the state for the loan for the greensand filter is in the final stages. We have already been approved and the committee is working with the state towards completing the paperwork.
8. The electrical box in the pump house needs to be replaced as soon as possible. The committee will address and get estimates.

Meeting was adjourned at 8:07pm.

Attendees: Chris Laskowski, Drew Bulfer, Brian Stevens, Marilyn Marshall,

Fred Lavenberg, Charlie Windisch.

Meeting was held in the meeting room at the Deborah Rawson Memorial Library. Meeting was called to order at 7:08pm.

1. June meeting minutes were unanimously approved.
2. Water bill payment status: As of meeting time, six households had not paid their third quarter bills. A second notice will be sent out by the end of the month to those households that are delinquent. The email approach seemed to work reasonably well. There are a few accounts that requested a bill by mail (these requests were honored).
3. The committee is still looking to streamline the bill pay process further.  We are exploring an automated payment method through the Community Bank (local bank on the corner of Raceway Rd and route 15. This essentially would be a type of automatic payment directly to the bank. Marilyn Marshall agreed to write a draft letter explaining the process and send to the committee for input and comment.
4. The dehumidifier in the pump house is working very well. Previously, there was always a lot of moisture in that room, which combined with the chlorine led to significant corrosion of the greensand filter structure. The current lack of moisture should insure the new structure lasts a long time.
5. We are awaiting final sign-off from the Professional Engineer for the new greensand filter. A water sample needs to be taken and tested.
6. Payment from the State Drinking Water Fund is in the final stages. We have been approved; the money is there. We expect the money will be released in the next few weeks.
7. A payment is due to Culligan for installation of the new greensand filter. Brian to contact Culligan to discuss a partial payment, with the knowledge that money from the state is forthcoming.
8. The committee has a request for those that walk their dogs on the land by the pumphouse – please pick up after your pet!! There are plastic bags on the gate at the entrance. 
9. Meeting was adjourned at 7:45pm

(Note: The pipe breakage which led to the disruption of the water supply happened after this meeting. This issue will be discussed at the August meeting.)
