Attendees: Jeff Earl, Brian Stevens, Fred Lavenberg, Kevin Trout, Drew Bulfer, Rich Colbourne, Charlie Windisch.
Location: Deborah Rawson Memorial Library meeting room.
Meeting was called to order at 7:05pm
- April meeting minutes were approved.
- Power washing the reservoir tanks: Kevin trying (unsuccessfully so far) to coordinate with SOS to have the tanks cleaned to remove the built-up manganese. Will try to contact Kevin Knapp (another SOS manager) to arrange a date.
- Pressure tank repair/replacement: The Lindenwood leak resulted in severe damage to at least one of the six pressure tanks in the reservoir building. SOS is coordinating with Clearwater Filtration Systems to assess. We received an estimate of $14K to inspect/replace all six. The committee will see if we can repair/replace a couple of the tanks now and defer action on the rest to a later time. Brian will also ask our insurer if any of the costs associated with this can be covered by our policy.
- Valve replacement: We are on the excavator’s list (Chris Wells) to have this work done this year. Will need to coordinate with SOS once a date is determined.
- Bill payment status: Marilyn Marshall (via email) said that as of meeting time there were seven households who have not paid the 2qtr bill (was due 1 April). Late notices will be sent out. In addition, 10 households owe an additional $15 as the quarterly fee went up from $235 to $250. Those households will be contacted to arrange payment.
- The committee also discussed the possibility of buying additional signs which would be put up in case of a boil water notice or (God forbid) another high manganese alert. The concern is that a few households have opted out of being included in the Foothills email distribution list and/or there are tenants living in at least one house. No action was decided on at this time.
Meeting was adjourned at 8:10pm.
