Gate

The Sentry Security contract ends October 17.
Maintenance
Maintenance yard fence will be installed by Easter Fence Co. It will replace the old fence along the road, 78 feet, $5500. John Dauernheim received two bids for the electrical installation on the maintenance building: $4788, Wentzel; $3522, Friedmeyer. The lowest bid for the asphalt work was $3250 from Basic Asphalt. 
Safety Fence
There is a new safety fence along the path that connects S Lakeshore Dr to the spillway at the dam. The LTPOA board felt that this fence was necessary. Many people like to walk around the lake and down to the dam and we didn’t want any accidents to occur. Many thanks go to Matt Holloran for his assistance with this project.
Sales Office and Guard Shack
The sales office has a new roof. The guard shack roof will be done soon. Fran Hovis presented the plan for remodeling the interior of the guard shack. The money has already been approved. The work will be done by Lakeside Gardeners volunteers.
Mulch Pile
The mulch pile will be moved from near the school bus stop to the grassy area adjacent to the south end of the Community House parking lot. Janet Hirsch will advise Matt Holloran of the new site.
Sewer Project
TGB Contracting began creating the staging area on the lakefront recreation area. They have reinforced the top of the dam with gravel for light truck traffic. The main construction access road is practically complete -- it comes into the area behind the dam from Regina Rd. The area behind the dam is being cleared and graded for the wastewater treatment plant construction. The resident engineer inspector is here every weekday and using the sales office.
Lowering the Lake
The plan is to begin lowering the lake Nov 1 to about 4 ft from full pool. Last time the siphon was used, the rate of drop was about 1 ft/week. We’re currently down about 12 inches, so it should take about 3 weeks.
LTIA
Barb Rohm reported that the LTIA membership dues for 2011 will be $40. The LTIA needs financial and physical help maintaining the Community House. There will be a volunteer day Oct 30. Everyone is encouraged to pitch in.
Closing
The board thanked Chris Townsend for his 1-1/2 year of service to the LTPOA.
