Manager’s Report

John Reiter reported that he had attended the homeowner’s weekend, and fielded several questions about the cost of owning property on the mountain. Overall, John felt that the owners had positive reactions to the way the district is operating, but owners do continue to share their concerns about costs of ownership, including district mill levies.

John Reiter updated the board on the Hermosa road paving, at this time the project is waiting on approvals from the forest service. No work is going to be done until those approvals are received. This work will not change the developer’s obligation.

John Reiter and Rick Johnson explained the situation with the fire hydrant located by John Reiter’s office. Currently when it is used it causes a severe water hammer issue in several homes. Rick explained the problem and some options for a solution. Rick and John feel that the best solution is to install a pop off valve to take the pressure off, and stop the water hammer. Nancy Furry made a motion to have John and Rick continue researching the best option, and get the situation resolved. Doug Simonson seconded the motion. Motion passed.

The meeting adjourned.
