Security 
Phil Overy was security guard on duty for 36 hours during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. He gave detailed shift reports and reported that overall everything went very smoothly. 

Rich Hirsch reported that someone in a large dump truck tailgated in behind another truck and broke the gate arm at about 9:15 am on June 10. The first truck used the callbox and the gate opened. The trucks seemed to be traveling together.
 
Rich Hirsch installed a new gate arm and Russ Wilner put reflective tape on it. The old gate arm was nowhere to be found, but based on the video, it was probably smashed.
 
We will have to get new gate arms, that was our last spare.

Buildings
John Dauernheim presented a building request from Timmerson, I38-I41 for new addition and attached garage. Motion made by Marilyn Meyer to approve the permit, seconded by Phil Overy. Motion passed.

Maintenance
John Dauernheim reported that the truck is still leaking gas from the fuel pump. He contacted Joey Hejnal to repair the leak and remove the salt spreader and plow from the truck.

Peerless Land Fill will remove the of old railroad ties from the maintenance yard. Cost is $53/ton, one ton minimum.

BobCat battery had to be charged. It has to be running to remove the salt spreader from the truck.

Dam
Clarue Holland had the grass on the dam cut in May and suggested that it be cut again June 23-24 before the scheduled MO DNR inspection of the dam June 28 and the July fireworks. Motion made by Phil Overy to schedule the grass cutting, seconded by Marilyn Meyer. Motion passed. Cutters that can cut grass horizontally are preferred to minimize rut formation.

Communications
Deadline for next newsletter is June 20.

Sewer Project
67 STEP tanks had been installed on the north side as of June 7, 48 of those have also had pump assemblies installed and the north side tanks all should be installed by the end of June. The contractor expects to have all tanks installed by Sept 1.
 
    Force main lines are being bored on the south side.
 
    At the treatment plant the three sand filters have had the concrete walls and floors poured. The contractor expects the treatment plant to be operational by early July. 
 
    If homeowners do not have the electrical circuit ready to connect they will incur a substantial expense to connect at a later date. So make sure you have your electrical circuit installed and certified.

Old Business
John Dauernheim reported that Easter Fence installed two turnbuckle kits on the maintenance yard fence to correct the sagging gate problem but it is not enough. Easter Fence is supposed to replace one of the gate support posts to correct the problem. 

Don Fendler, G37, promised to have the bridge removed from common ground.

Lots F9 and M15 still have tornado damage from April 2010. If the LTPOA has to clean those lots, the owners will be billed.

New Business
Vern Puryear inquired about purchase of lots K59, 60, & 64. The price for all three would be $5000. 

LTIA
For the Fourth of July fireworks display we have to put up signs and inform people that they cannot park along N Lakeshore Dr during the fireworks. The fire marshal will not allow the fireworks to take place if the Fire Department cannot get through the roads.
