Members present:   Glen Humes, Cliff Moon,  Ken Braithwaite, Tom Pandolfi, Karen Marshall and Rande Chmura.  Others present: Fred Chmura Absent: Eric Werstler, Margaret Houlihan, Ron Zavarella  

 

Clerks Report:

A motion was made by Ken Braithwaite and seconded by Tom Pandolfi to accept the minutes from the October 1st meeting.  The motion was approved unanimously.

 

Lake , Dam and Beach:

Glen Humes reported for Eric that the lake lowering was going well.  The current level will be maintained for 3 or 4 more weeks.  The level will then be raised to a foot below normal.  We need a good freeze to kill plant growth.

 

Roads:

Tom Pandolfi reported that Truax reported two clogged drains.  The Bungee Fire department will be contacted to try to blow them clear.  

Only one plowing bid was received.  Bob Perry will do the plowing for about the same charges as last year.  Bob will not be doing the Bungee plowing this year as a lower bed was accepted. 

Signs for Olde Stone Road will be erected.

John Albrecht’s bid on the remaining Crooked Trail drainage project was the only bid received.

A motion was made by Cliff Moon and seconded by Ken Braithwaite to accept J & A Excavation’s bid of $17,000 for installation of project ‘B’ section of drainage on Crooked Trail.  The motion was approved unanimously.

Runoff from the hill near Koviciny Beach is causing erosion.  To eliminate this problem, an additional catch basin is recommended.

A motion was made by Cliff Moon and seconded by Karen Marshall to install a catch basin and tie it in to existing drainage pipe uphill from the beach.  The motion was approved unanimously.

Sand barrels will be located at each lake entrance.

  

Zoning:

No report

 

Appeals:

Karen Marshall reported there were no appeals.

 

Health, fire and safety:

Karen Marshall contacted state police troop ‘D’  for more police presence.  They will provide this.

 

Treasurer’s Report:

Rande Chmura reviewed the monthly financial report. 

 

Next meeting – December 17th at 7PM

A motion to adjourn the meeting was made, seconded and carried unanimously.

Respectfully submitted,

Cliff Moon
