Minutes October 9th, 2021, 10 AM
Web Site Committee (John Wilson): John briefed the group that the “rebuild” of the website was a
challenge but he has it up and running. John requested any/all view/review website and provide
feedback/recommendations.
Security: Rollie stated that there have been strangers at the waterfront and they have been confronted and
asked to leave. Rollie asks community assist in assuring security at waterfront. He has made an effort to
lock/chain the parking lot more often and requests volunteers to assist with this.
Facebook: Jim briefed group on new/revised Facebook page. It is a community page that allows us to set up
groups to focus on services, activities or committees. We currently have a Waterfront Committee group and more
can be added. Jim asked to “follow” us at: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100070177253689
and contact him for assistance.

• 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 on this recurring effort and equipment needed to conduct
the cleanup project that she leads. Pam stated that volunteers should meet her at pool house on 10/16.

2) Jay Cousino stated that he felt our budgeted amount for Well Replacement was low and recommended
it be raised to $10,000. The board agreed to review this.
3) John Irons voiced concern over board practice of publishing names/amounts due, of those delinquent in
paying lot fees, in our newsletter. He felt it was unnecessarily disparaging and may be illegal. After some
discussion the board agreed to take action as appropriate.
