The
December meeting of the Woodland Hills Sanitary District was called to order at

Crozman, Beth Haivala, Tyler Trupe and Ed Striebel. Lois Lund was absent.
Secretary’s
Report: Randy asked if everyone had received and
read the November minutes. There were
only a couple of typos to correct. Beth
made a motion to approve the minutes, seconded by Tyler and approved 5-0.
Income
Report: Total water income for November was
$7299.89. We had a net loss of (
$898.79 ). The first payment on Loan #1 to First National Bank was made in the
amount of $5004.71 out of our account.
Randy made a motion to approve the Income Report seconded by Beth and
approved 5-0.
Water
Report: There were repairs done to the chlorinator
last month in the amount of $241.91. Ed
suggested that we discuss the purchase of a digital chlorinator. This will help in the diagnosis of chlorine
intake and is also easier to repair.
The board voted 5-0 to purchase a digital chlorinator the next time ours
breaks down.
The
first billing on our new system was sent out on Nov. 15. There were several customers with very large
water bills. All of these lines have
been investigated and also checked the new tie-ins to any work that had taken
place in the last year. All of the
leaks were on service lines.
Addition
to Water Policy:
If
a customer has a water leak on their line, the water overage is waived for that
month and their average water useage will be charged (to be determined by
Lois). The leak must be repaired within
the month. If the repair is not made,
the customer will be responsible all water usage/loss going forward per month.
