Some concerns and discussion this month: Do a lottery or first come/first serve – but will be interviewed prior to make sure the reason is valid for joining.
-The taxes went up a few pennies and there was no mention of it. But it is by the value. Over all valuation of property
-There will be a hearing and a vote
-Parking


-I live on Brimstone and I am not allowed to come to the lake. I would be happy to pay to join. Opening it up to people that are in local area.
-What about making it by school district? If those kids all play together it would be wise allow those people to join.
-Have you talked to the town attorney about liability? We can do what we want? Just need to have a public hearing
and then vote.
-Make the price fair. Possibly assess at the same price of .49 cent per $.
-Parking is an issue. How and where to park? The purpose of the lake is to use it.
-All things need to be worked out. We are a community and the tax map doesn’t show that. People just out of the area are not part of the community. We will explore all issues and brainstorm to make it work.
Neighborhood watch signs: Town highway department signs: stop signs, Ginny Nacerino will help find out if we can put them on County signs.
Glass case at the market gets updated monthly.
