Executive Board Met January 6th

The Executive Board of Shorehill Estates met on Sunday, January 6 to take up three items of business...

1. Flood Damage -
2. Delinquent Accounts -
3. The Franchise Agreement -

The following is a synopsis of the discussion and decisions that were made. If you have any questions or comments, please contact Gayle Robbins or another member of the board.

FLOOD DAMAGE -
This month two dangerous trees have been cut to alleviate the potential of further damage. There are other trees in the watershed currently being assessed to determine if they should be removed or trimmed to avoid potential damage risk, while also avoiding any additional erosion possibilities.
It was recommended that we wait until the ground settles, stabilizes and dries out more before moving forward and doing more work on Brooke Drive, the catch basin and culvert.
In regard to repairing the damage at the beach, it was also decided to wait for drier weather to clear off the rocks, dirt and debris which covers the lawn and sprinkler system. We will investigate how best to redo the grass (sod or seed) and if changes can be made to the boat ramp area to make it more accessible. The current plan is that the docks will be put in early and extra work parties will be called to accomplish the extra work that needs to be done. The Board encourages all community members to become involved in the clean-up projects and these extra clean up dates. Many of the same people are showing up to help with the clean up. We need everyone's help that is able to do so. Dates will be posted on the Blog once they are scheduled and sent out via mail to those without internet access.

DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS
There are three severely delinquent accounts. An attorney will write
a letter to the property owners giving them a deadline to get their delinquencies paid. If they are not, aggressive collection efforts will be initiated either through assignment of the debts or further legal proceedings.

FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
The community has been offered a new option other than the Franchise Agreement explained at out last community meeting. We will be signing a Private Line Utility Occupancy Permit to satisfy requirements of the county. It will cost us $200 (rather than $400).

The Board plans to meet again on April 5.
The next planned work party is scheduled for May 3. Watch for notice of any additional work parties.
