Location: Deborah Rawson Library meeting room.

Attendees: Fred Lavenberg, Drew Bulfer, Jeff Earl, Brian Stevens, Charlie Windisch, Kevin Trout, Tyler Billingsley (East Engineering).

Meeting was called to order at 7:05 pm.

  1. Tyler Billingsley of East Engineering presented his draft report for the Asset Management Plan (AMP). JFD #1 decided to pursue developing this plan as the cost incurred is 100% reimbursed by the State. Tyler has compiled a complete inventory of all assets and location of curb stops, lines, etc. One advantage of having this plan is we will receive higher priority in the event additional loans are needed in the future for infrastructure repairs or upgrades. 
  2. Recent leak at the well head – water was pooling at an area just below the building. Chris Wells (excavator) was called and a cracked pipe was discovered. A new section of pipe was put in.
  3. Financials – Brian presented the year end financials as well as a proposed budget for 2024. No quarterly increase is projected for next year. With the greensand filter loan dollars (from earlier this year) in our account we are in a good position financially.
  4. Heater needs to be replaced at well head building. The propane heater in the building reached the end of life and a new one needs to be installed. Fred to contact Patterson Fuels.
  5. Service line inventory – Per new State requirement, every house in our development needs to be checked to insure there are no lead pipes bringing water from the street into the house. MSK Engineering has been tasked with completing this work. Every Foothills house received a mailing from MSK regarding this. The options are to take a picture of the line coming into the house, or call MSK to arrange for one of their engineers to visit. As of the meeting time, 16 homes had not responded. MSK to follow up with these homeowners.
  6. Kevin Trout was voted in as a member of the Prudential Committee. Thanks you, Kevin for volunteering your time for this position!
  7. The January 2024 meeting will serve as the Annual Meeting. The date is Tuesday, January 16, 2024, 7pm (Deborah Rawson Library meeting room).

The meeting ended at 8:11 pm
