$3,621. Jim motioned to accept the

Water Report: Water losses
were 27 percent. Six outside meter
displays need replacement and the board decided to wait on the replacement
pending the water project.
Old Business: The board
elected officers. Randy will remain
president. Dick as vice-president. Jim as recording secretary. Carol as treasurer and Evan as corresponding
secretary.
New Business: Resident Sue
Jones asked the board to rescind $50 in late fees that had been assessed. Because of anticipated travel Sue had
prepaid her account . Since she had not
turned in a meter reading a late fee was assessed. The board agreed to discuss the issue after the regular
meeting. The secretary is not quite
sure what the board decided. He is of
the opinion that the board agreed to cut the late fee in half but subsequent
emails after the meeting indicated the board members were not in favor of
reducing the late fee. The secretary
hopes to find out in the next meeting what the board wishes to do about this.
Ted Schultz from CETEC discussed a revamped
water project. There was much
discussion and the board decided on the following project items:
The high end estimated would be
$769,000. The board voted 4-0 to
proceed with this project and submit it to the state water plan. Again, public hearings with all the details
and cost breakdown will be held with the residents of Woodland Hills before the
project receives a go-ahead and any dirt is turned.
Randy Alexander asked if the board would buy
back one of his water rights. Randy had
originally purchased two rights for $14,000 and had another that came with the
lot he bought. The board voted 3-0,
with Randy abstaining, to refund $7,000.
The next regular
board meeting will be held October 10 at 6:30pm.
This meeting was
adjourned at 8:10pm.

Stewart, Recording Secretary.
