Meeting Report – September 13, 2022

The Cedar Landing 2 – Creek Estates Road Maintenance Organization (RMO) Board of Directors convened at 507 Bishop Drive on Tuesday, September 13, 2022 at 6:30 pm.

President Cynthia Kunz convened the meeting.

The report of the August 2, 2022 meeting was accepted.

Road Maintenance
BLI Work

Washout at 709 Cedar Court was repaired
Members discussed the perception that smaller, lighter equipment, with less expert workers, was being used to grade gravel roads and that the grading was not lasting as long. [Note: Kunz subsequently discussed this perception with Mr. Hanchey who noted that the smaller equipment permitted the operator to apply greater pressure than the motor grader can and that use of this equipment costs half of the charge for the motor grader, enabling the roads to be graded twice per quarter.]

Other Road Work

Traffic Counter
- Jeff Conerly concluded that the problem with the counter was the pressure hose, which was replaced; hose lifespan ~18 months

III. Member/RMO Issues

401 Creek Drive – Blockage of drainage pipe – BLI quoted a cost of ~$400 to remove blockage; Rob Schneider suggested that he talk to the tenant, Mr. Feathers, and offer to help him remove the blockage. [Note: Schneider reported that Mr. Feathers agreed to remove the blockage but has not done so.]
Community Grill – Members discussed plans for the quarterly membership meeting and community grill on October 1, 2022. [Note: Grill was subsequently re-scheduled for October 8, 2022 due to Tropical Storm Ian.]
