Old Business: Debbie
will check with Diana again about the standing water on Pipeline
Road. She had previously told us it would be fixed but has not been done yet. We are still waiting for clarification from the attorney on updating the covenants. Ann Brezinski the attorney had been out of town and states she will get back to us by 8-23 at the latest. The Army Corp of Engineers told Debbie that no permit is needed to build a ramped area to the river as long as nothing is put into the water. She talked with Jackie and Wayne at the Rock Island district on July 18. (309-794-5057) Debbie will again get in touch with Rod about the retention pond. The septic is done but there is no gravel at the discharge point so Steve will ask the health department if that is correct as we were told there would be gravel which would make the area much dryer. Steve did go down and states it is fairly dry and could be mowed. He was able to cut down most of the tall weeds and cattails. Debbie will ask Rod and Jim Horchem to call Steve when they go down to work. Steve asked if we could use the vacant lot on Valley View to enter the retention pond. Debbie will get in touch with the owner after she talks with Rod to see if that would help him.

New Business: Since
the last meeting the letter went out with the ballot to vote on the use of the
Shell money. The letter was approved by
the attorney and then Bob, Erin, Debbie, Andrea, Dave and Steve approved it. We
have 30 votes back so far – 110 were sent out.
That is a quorum. They are due
back by August 15. Debbie asked to be reimbursed $92.19 for light bulbs, paper,
envelopes, bush and labels. Steve made a
motion and Leroy seconded. All others
agreed. The house on the corner of River
Bend and Valley View has sold(it was in foreclosure). The other house thought to be in foreclosure
is not. The River Bend Block party is
August 10 at 4pm on Valley View in the second phase. Debbie will send out a letter to a homeowner
with a trailer in the driveway.
Meeting was adjourned at 7:10pm with a motion by Bob and
seconded by Debbie and all others agreed.
