Minutes for Meeting to Vote on Pier Committee Hiring and Attorney to move forward on pier project.
6/8/2010 at 7:00pm at Rita and Don’s
Meeting Agenda: There will be a vote on whether or not to allow the pier committee to hire an attorney to assist in the pier permit process.
Don- Purpose of the meeting is to get a consensus on what direction we’re heading with the pier and with the attorney guys.
Don – Out of 5 proxy votes, we have 4 in Favor and 1 negative. I also got one more investor. Do you guys want to discuss anything, or do you guys just want to move forward?
The money that is put fourth, will eventually go toward the lease of a slip. There is no guarantee we will get anything. If people don’t have money, it doesn’t mean that they will never get a slip. People who put up money, will be given priority on a lease for an available slip.
Anita- I agree with that. That’s fair.
Rita – Some people who put up money may loose it all.
Don – That’s right.
Don: We’ve been working on this thing for a year. We need to move forward on this. We’re in the same place we were a year ago.
Don: One more note before we go on….Bylaw, we will be working on during the next meeting and no one has sent in any comments. We need to send out another email reminding people of the meeting on the 22 and that they need to send in their comments.
Don: Discussion on setting up a separate account to manage pier funds at request of treasurer.
Greg: Motion on the floor to “Vote to open separate pier account”
Bob: Second
Voice Vote:
Unanimously approved.
(An account to be set up for the purpose of the pier fund…..but should not affect the timely writing of the check needed to retain the services of the attorney. Cannot wait another 2 weeks for it to be set up)

Meeting Minutes: recorded by Greg Whitesell-acting secretary
(Note: These meeting minutes are an attempt to record as much as possible that took place during the meeting, but not nearly everything said was recorded. As they are not transcribed from a tape, nor are they all inclusive, they are not meant to be direct quotes from anyone or to be used as legal documentation. Rather this is an attempt to provide a degree of transparency of the proceedings and to serve as a casual record for both those in attendance and for those who were unable to attend. There is quite a bit that was said that could not be recorded, therefore, consider the minutes as a bit of short hand with some exclusions. Thanks, Greg.)
