The March/April volunteer of the month is Joe Muscarnera.  Joe has held the presidents position on the board
going on his 4th year and handles major DPA projects and park improvements.  Joe also handles the always cantankerous complaints taken and solutions to handle those problems.  Joe always steps in and handles the projects/problems that no one else wants to.  A major cog in the DPA machine of a fine working community.

2.     There was a nomination of Officers.  The results were as follows: President: Joe Muscarnera, Vice President: Scott Thorsteinson, Secretary: David Thorsen, Treasurer: Ron Wilderman.

Open Discussion:

1.     Whiteboard: Leave it in the current position and dress it up or replace with a wider and shorter version

2.     Justin N. will now handle the Gate cards

3.     The trailer sticker distributions will be farmed out

4.     The Secretary will attempt to attach the map of security patrol “occurrences” with the minutes

5.     The fence at the park will be replaced with 6’ Tall Galvanized fencing.  There has been one bid so far with more coming to be voted on later.

6.     The finance committee will address summer projects and prioritize community needs.

7.     A explanation of the budget approval was explained as such: the budget is sent out with the required number of days ahead of the general meeting.  To reject this proposal, 50% +1 of the members would have to vote to reject it and thus cause a new budget proposal.  If the members do not show for the annual meeting the budget stands as proposed.

8.     Eye sore homes are a touchy issue to address, but direct DPA interaction could be enacted if there was a safety concern, otherwise letters and direct influence are the best possible solutions.

9.     There are middle of the day thefts of Jet Skis, Boards, boating equipment, etc occurring and members need to close their garage doors.

Meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
