Dave
Stanley has set the date for the FG Golf Tournament at
Lucerne Lakes for November 8th. Dave will be
in charge of the event.
There
was a general discussion of the school bus stop at the
Civic Center. The school bus stop has been moved due to
ongoing problems with students. Sue Guthrie noted that
vandalism has already occurred to the new marquee, and
suggests that no trespassing signs be posted on the
building. Patti Burke will put a notice in the FG
newsletter that anyone caught vandalizing the Civic
Center will be prosecuted.
Matt
Lacharite led a general discussion regarding lawn
maintenance at the Civic Center.
It was
decided to keep the present arrangement at $110.00 per
month expense, if the maintenance can be done in a
timely and satisfactory manner.
There
was a lengthy and intense discussion regarding the new
marquee in front of the Civic Center. Sue Guthrie said
the marquee apparently was not done according to our
requirements and the specs we furnished the builder.
After much discussion and input from the residents
present, it was decided that Bill Applegate would be
authorized to contact the sign company and tell them
that we would accept the sign if the Association would
be credited $1000.00 to $1500.00 off the final cost.
The sign would be moved if necessary and placed in the
proper location in front of the Civic Center, set in the
ground and properly anchored, and pass all county
codes. Once all this is done to the complete
satisfaction of the Civic Association, and not before
then, final payment would be made.
Motion to
accept: David McConnell 1st, Sandy Mann 2nd,
and the motion carried by majority vote.
