Elk Forest Civic Association Meeting Minutes - 8/16/2009
Elk Forest Civic Association
Annual Meeting August 16, 2009
The following are notes from the annual meeting supplied by Mike Leshner:
1. The basic dues remain at $5 and the additional fee for mosquito spraying has been increased from $15 to $25, for a total of $30.
2. We have doubled-up on mosquito spraying for much of this season, and it seems to be effective. We will budget for similar frequency of spraying next year. We will set up a method for feedback from residents to report on whether (and when) the mosquito spraying truck has been to their home - to improve accountability.
3. The past 2 years interest on our CDs (about $2,000) has been used to cover the current budget shortfall, and the dues/fee increase should keep the treasury stable in the coming year. Our CDs remain at about $30,000.
4. Chris Brookmeyer has been elected Treasurer for the coming year. All other officers and Board members will serve another year. Many thanks to Pat Truitt for her 2 years of excellent service as Treasurer.
5. The holiday party has been set for December 5th at St. Rose Hall in N. Chesapeake City.
The annual picnic was fun and the food was yummy. We had Kilby Cream's "Moo-Mobile" to serve our dessert. Entertainment was especially good, thanks to the local band "Chain Reaction" who played old-timey folk, bluegrass and country tunes. See the attached photo and the band's business card. The band is available for private parties, and they are nice guys, too. Thanks to all whoparticipated. We really have a bunch of nice neighbors in Elk Forest.
