Concerns<\/p>\n
\n
Pier road condition\n
\n
Carrie has reached out to the county several times, but not gotten a response.<\/li>\n
Suggestion is that everyone calls to “encourage” them to fix the road<\/li>\n
Point of contact is Jessica Hare (Councilperson for our area)<\/li>\n
Bob has talked to the service workers and has a contact card. Will look for the info.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Neighborhood Sign\n
\n
Definitely needs some work – wood rot<\/li>\n
Carrie got some contact info for people that do that kind of work. If we decide to keep the sign, she can reach out for an estimate for replacement\/restoration.<\/li>\n
Question of whether we want to keep the sign\n
\n
Pro: It indicates to other people that the neighborhood and our pier are private property.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
If being kept, we need to organize a project to refresh the damaged wood.<\/li>\n
Likely will need 8-10 6x6s<\/li>\n
Greg volunteers to do a magician “table cloth trick” with the dirt in the enclosure<\/li>\n
X will scope it out, and determine how much wood is needed<\/li>\n
Greg will provide a trailer and recruit volunteers to pick up the materials<\/li>\n
We will set a work date once we have the materials – target by the end of May<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Drainage ditches are flooding\n
\n
Possible the county will be able to address<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Shoreline\n
\n
With the fragmites gone, there is a lot of washout happening<\/li>\n
Carrie will call the county river keeper and get a recommendation for something to plant to stabilize the shore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Gazebo\n
\n
Needs some stabilization, structure moves\n
\n
Likely needs some 4×4 cross bracing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Roof will also need to be replaced, but can’t be done until bracing is done<\/li>\n
Target date by end of June for the bracing, fall for the roof<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Shed\n
\n
Needs to be painted<\/li>\n
Eventually the floors need to be fixed, but not a priority<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Improvements\n
\n
Kayak rack\n
\n
Ideal setup would be for 6 kayaks<\/li>\n
Bob has a contact at a fabrication shop. Will check to see if he can build something sturdy and secure. <\/li>\n
Good location would be right behind the pump equipment.<\/li>\n
We will send around some ideas via email.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Bench\n
\n
Would be nice to have a bench down by the water<\/li>\n
Basic bench with a back somewhere between the gazebo and the water<\/li>\n
Mike will look online for something inexpensive and suitable and send it to the board<\/li>\n
Paid for with HOA funds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Dead trees in drainage ditch down by pier area\n
\n
Note: it’s not a creek, or a bed\u2026it’s a ditch!<\/li>\n
Need approval from the county due to proximity to the water<\/li>\n
This will be another item for the list when we make contact with the county<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Election of officers<\/p>\n
\n
Elections at meeting on June 8th – in person (likely outdoor) meeting to allow for voting\n
\n
Anyone that cannot attend can hand a sealed envelope or send an email to an officer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
Anyone interested in being an officer should submit their name via email to any officer (or all)<\/li>\n
Current officers to submit desire to remain or resign by May 11th<\/li>\n
List of candidates will be finalized on May 25th, no more submissions after that date<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=244"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":263,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244\/revisions\/263"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rhodeharbor.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
