Old Business:

A.    Water Tower – The Board feels that this would be a large undertaking.  Concerns include that Willmar may let Eagle Lake join eventually and the City seems to be expanding north.  The topic will not be discussed at the annual meeting.  Glen made a motion to table the water tower discussion indefinitely.  Dave 2nd.  Motion carried. 

B.     Weed Roller Letter – Kim and Dave will craft a letter and email to all board members.  Give feedback and letter can be sent.

C.     Fenstra Light – The light is not always on.  Board agreed to pay for 1 year.  The intersection was not deemed dangerous by the County, so Harry asked for the light, so it is in his name and can’t be taken off.  Dan will make a check for $106.92 for 2008 year.  Others on the lake currently pay for their own light.  Dave made a motion that the Board no longer reimburses Eagle Lake residents for their yard/street lights (installation or electric bills) from here on forward.  Beth 2nd.  Motion carried.

 

 New Business:

A.     Website – Glen will do a presentation at the annual meeting to promote it.

Respectfully submitted,

Tammy Knapper, Secretary
