• Old Business: We reviewed the old business items below and there were no comments.

Basketball Court: Donations from Secretary & Treasurer salaries began in Aug 2011. Since then, the
Secretary & Treasurer have donated their annual pay every year towards this project. That is 10 years for
Jim (2011 thru 2020) x $200/year = $2000. That is 1 year for Mike, and 9 years for Mark (2011 thru 2020) x
$200/year = $2000. Also, we have $100 from Yard Sale, $100 donation from Doris Cousineau, and $200
from Kandy Bruno (WFC 2015 & 2017). $2000 + $2000 + $100 + $100 + $200 = $4400 currently available
for B-ball court.
ADA requirement: We may someday be required to make our pool handicap accessible: This is ongoing
concern and potential expense if requirement is enforced. ADA requirements on pool permit application
show 4 means of compliance. County reply states pools located at this facility are required to meet the
2010 ADA Standards but compliance is “not readily achievable” at this time. Insp report showed
compliance due 9/15/12. Lorie has action to monitor requirements.
Deep Well replacement: in 2017 we replaced the well pump motor and realized that our aging well casing
is badly corroded and could fail. We have budgeted $8000 for new well if/when required.

• New Business/Open Discussion

1) Jones Wharf Cleanup: Pam briefed the group of meeting time and equipment needed to conduct the
cleanup project that she leads. Pam stated that she had been successful in getting a no littering sign
place on Jones Wharf
2) WFC: Lori briefed the group that there is a long list of work to be done under our Work for Credit
program and asked for participation. Mark pointed out that a WFC form, signed by a board member, is

required to get credit.
3) Drainage: Lori briefed group that the county intends to do excavation and remove trees adjacent to
pool parking lot to address drainage issues. No further details of schedule or scope of work were
provided.
4) WIFI: The board briefed the group that we intend to install WIFI at the pool. This is only being done to
support install of low-cost security cameras. A request was made to provide WIFI access to patrons on a
‘pay for access” basis. After some discussion we agreed this was logistically too difficult.
5) HS Road Condition & Mosquitoes: Lisa Kirkpatrick sated that our roads are falling apart and asked when

will county conduct repairs. The board agreed this is not a matter under their purview and
recommended she contact the County. Jim Dollarton made a motion that the HSCA write a letter to the
county requesting repair as this would carry more clout than one person. All were in favor and the
board agreed. Lisa also asked when mosquito spraying will occur. After brief discussion Pam Lefave
pointed out that she joins with neighbors to pay for this service from the county….but it is not free.
6) Mosquito Machine: Ron Redding made a motion that we investigate purchase of a new mosquito
prevention spray machine for the pool. All are in favor and the board agreed to investigate price for
purchase and sustainment.
