WOODLAND HILLS SANITARY DISTRICT
MEETING
December 12, 2012
The meeting began at 6:34pm and was held at the Lark Lane meeting hall. Attending were Jim Stewart, Evan Hutchings, Carol Crozman, Randy Alexander, Lois Lund and Ed Striebel.
Secretary's
Report: Jim read the minutes from the November
meeting. A minor correction was made to
differentiate the various leaks.
Randy made a
motion to accept the minutes with a 2nd by Carol.
Income
Statement: Income was minus $4326 due to leak repair
expenses. Jim motioned to accept the
statement with a 2nd by Carol.
Water Report: The latest
Lark Lane leak was worked on by Ed and Brandon. A new valve was installed near 8605 Lark to help isolate the
location. Ed noted that the main line
was so brittle that a spade broke it while digging. The board debated how best to attack this new leak. Three alternatives are available.
Option 1 was ruled out because of the expense
and the low balance in the district's account. Option 2 was debated with Evan in favor but the other trustees
declined mostly because the sleeve could further restrict water flow on an already
small diameter (3 inch) main line. Option
3 was selected because of the relative low cost and the likelihood that just a
few holes would be required to find the leak.
Brandon should be able to resume work on the leak by December 19.
Water loss was running at 72 percent.
Jim
motioned to accept the water report with a 2nd by Carol.
Old Business: The district will consolidate its accounts at
Great Western back. Randy and Jim will
oversee that process.
Jim will ask legal counsel about transferring
WHCA assets to the WHSD.
New Business: A resident brought up a concern about brush
piles in the subdivision. The trustees
decided to take no action as there has not been enough snow cover this season
to permit safe burning of the piles.
The next trustees
meeting will be held January 9, 2013.
This meeting was adjourned at 7:42 pm.
