IV. Old Business

A. Power Infrastructure

Dick reported that the final bill was paid to Wyrulec for the buried power infrastructure. The job is now completed in its entirety.

B. Roads - discussion with the attorney

Per her letter dated May 24, 2006, Ann Schnelzer, PRRPOA attorney, recommends posting a sign at the entrance of the Ranch that states: Private primitive roads – travel at your own risk. She said that posting signs will help to put people on notice and minimize our liability. Don Beamon will procure such a sign.

C. Weed Spraying

The question was raised regarding what the PRRPOA owes to Arnold Tollefson for the spraying of weeds along roadways he did in June. Dick will contact Arnold and report back at the next meeting.

D. Annual Meeting Treasurer’s Report

Callie provided an accounting of the income and expenses in putting on the Annual General Meeting for 2006. The PRRPOA paid for the community center rental and the courtesy beverages available during registration and the meeting. All other costs for food and entertainment were covered by fees collected from those attending. The Board extended their gratitude to Deborah Raudins for the great job of catering.

E. Recording of CC&Rs and Bylaws

Dick related that he has had several members question the mobile home issue. This item needs to be rewritten for clarity. The Board agreed that the intent of the clause is to not allow any trailer-type mobile homes. Modular and manufactured homes must be double-wides or more and must be placed on a permanent foundation. Joseph agreed to prepare a flyer with pictures to help describe what is allowed and what is not allowed. When this item is rewritten and approved by the Board, the CC&Rs and Bylaws will be posted on the website and recorded with Goshen County.

F. Road maintenance

The Road Committee consisting of Matt Allred, Don Beamon, and Dick have received bids from three contractors willing to do the work. Brett Hennigh is one of the contractors and was present to give a summary of what he thought should be done with the roads. Brett would like to propose a year-round maintenance program. Joseph indicated a desire to do so within the existing maintenance budget with no additional assessments to the members. Brett will send his proposal to the Board which will include fees for doing the 2006 maintenance and a separate proposal for 2007 maintenance program. Arnold resigned from the Road Committee shortly after its formation for personal reasons. A consultant was not retained.

V. New Business

A. Weed control for 2007

Dick explained that a licensed contractor must do spraying of insecticides and herbicides for weed control according to the State of Wyoming Environmental Protection Agency. Dick will seek bids from such contractors and report at the next meeting. A future letter should be sent to the members with information about controlling noxious weeds along with a website link to the Wyoming government sites on the subject.

B. Ratification on new board members

The Board discussed the difficulty in getting a quorum present at the General Meeting so that issues can be voted on. With so many members living far away from the ranch, it is unlikely that enough members will go to the expense of traveling to the meeting. With this is mind, the Board agreed that the bylaws should be changed to say that the members at the general meeting constitute a quorum for purposes of voting on issues that do not change the CC&Rs and Bylaws. This proposal should go out to the membership for their approval. When the mobile home rewrite is issued, this item will be added to the same mailing.

A vote on the floor of the General Meeting on 6-3-06 unanimously approved Bill Rader and Don Beamon to serve as Board Members for two-year terms. Although a quorum was not present, the Board has approved these two members since there were no opposing candidates. Welcome to Board, Don and Bill.

C. New Officers

The Board Members held an election resulting in the following Officers:

Dick Gosselin – Retained as President

Matt Allred – Vice President

Linda was retained as Secretary and Callie Allred was retained as Treasurer. The three Board Members at large are Don Beamon, Bill Rader, and Joseph Ginther.

The Board Meeting was adjourned 1:35 p.m. Lunch was served by Matt and Callie Allred and Linda Gosselin. Thank you for the delicious food!

The next meeting will be held on October 14th, 2:00 p.m., at the home of Dick and Linda Gosselin.
