BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT: Sharon Brooks, Janet Aniol, Steve Sprinz, Carole Penfield-Krowne, and Karin Krippene. A quorum was present.
OTHER RESIDENTS PRESENT: 9
I. MINUTES: The minutes from November were read and approved. Steve volunteered to create agendas for future meetings. A motion was passed by the board approving Steve to prepare agendas. Any member wishing to present an issue for discussion should contact Steve prior to the meeting so the matter can be placed on the agenda.
II. FINANCIAL REPORT. There was no financial report due to the absence of the treasurer. Sharon reported that the school did receive the check for $1,000 which had been previously approved by the board.. We are still waiting for a directive from Red Rock Development regarding the $12,000 sitting in the LMPOA account. John Friedman did inform Sharon not to expect any field work on the Indian Lakes project for one year due to the falling economy.
Carole and Sharon reported that they went to the bank, explained the situation, and received emergency checks and deposit slips in order to pay the unpaid bills and deposit dues checks which are arriving.
III. GUEST SPEAKER: None. A plaque of appreciation was presented to Janet for her tireless work on transportation issues, including the I-17 interchange which is now under construction. Certificates of appreciation for their assistance were given to Karin Krippene and Maggie Holt.
IV. COMMITTEE REPORTS
A. TRANSPORTATION. Janet presented a summary of her monthly report and answered questions. (See copy of report attached to these minutes). The BCCAT chaired by Jeannette Estes was responsible for improvements to the No Parking signs in front of the post office. Also for the marking of crosswalks in front of the Rimrock Fire Station.
Janet reported that all the recommendations from Lima & Associates, consultants in 1999, were completed except improvement of the well road and a secondary access/egress via Brocket Ranch Road. In the new plan, they are stated as "either-or" alternatives. Janet will draft a letter to Chip Davis expressing the Board's concern that both are important, especially as safety issues.
B. PLANNING and ZONING. Steve gave a brief presentation. He continues to attend the Planning and Zoning meetings and monitoring any proposed zoning amendments. A discussion was held on HA #H7178 (See attached report) It is coming to the Board of Supervisors on December 15th. Karin stated that there is a designated area across I-17 for parking commercial vehicles and that they should not be permitted to park in residential areas. There was general agreement.
C. PARKS. Sharon continues to have meetings with Chip Davis regarding a possible role for the County in maintaining Rollins Park.
The fountain is reported to be overflowing.
Beaver Creek Inn is allowing LMPOA to use their dumpster for grass clippings. In addition, there is a local resident who will pick them up for free. The gardener's request for an increase of $35 per month to take the clippings to the dump and pay a fee is therefore not necessary.
D. WATER/FLOODING. Karen will try to schedule a meeting with Dwayne Wiles before the January LMPOA meeting.
E. PUBLICITY/Concert Series. Karin publicized Holiday Fest in the papers and put up signs.
F. WEBSITE/Newsletter. Steve reported that the website is up to date.
G. BEAVER CREEK REGIONAL COUNCIL/ COMMUNITY PLAN. There was a 14% response to the community plan questionnaires which is considered a good return. The community meeting on November 15, 2008 at the Beaver Creek School was very well organized and attended. The committee hopes to have the plan drafted by summer 2009.
H. HOLIDAY FEST Holiday Fest will be held on December 6, 2008 at Rollins Park. Tree wrapping will be done in the morning from 9-11 and children's activities will begin at 1:30.
