Due to a recent resignation, the Bear Valley Water District Board has a vacancy through December 2nd, 2011. BVRI sent an email blast regarding this open position on the Board.

BVWD GM Julio Guerra submitted the Report of Waste Discharge to the Regional Water Quality Control Board, providing new information regarding renewal of the NPDES permit.

The Bear Valley water district is looking for an additional 60-90 spray feet acres (for use in very wet winters) to support additional hook ups needed for development. No report on progress with this at this time.  It was suggested that Dave and several board members meet with Chuck Toenesketter to discuss the needed acres.

The Bear Valley water district is looking for an additional 60-90 spray field acres (for use in very wet winters) to support additional hook ups needed for the proposed development. No commitment on part of landowner at this time to use of land for additional sprayfields.

Sue's right that we thought a meeting with Chuck would be a good idea, but I propose we change the wording from:  "It was suggested that Dave and several board members meet with Chuck Toenesketter o discuss common BV interests.

Use of the beach is intended to be limited to BVRI members in good standing. Family, guests and renters of those members' homes are also welcome to use the beach.

Discussion of Beach Patrol. 6 hours/week x 5 days (with days off to be determined). Discussion-Continue with same rate of pay for beach patrol as previous years.

Budget is being determined for beach prep including sand, buoys, trash can covers to keep bears out, picnic table and raft repair.

Sue Garratt is drafting a proposal for a more formal beach policy to address: rental fee plus a credit card on file as a security measure against excessive damage; beach rental agreement that must be signed by member in good standing; comps that are generally provided to "first responders." Other complimentary uses of the beach including triathlon, recreation program (BV Parents' group), music festival; Fishing; and dogs.

Discussion of policies in place in other resort areas regarding home size restrictions. Discussion of aesthetic vs actual home size.

Sub-Committee formed: Ron Murphy, Dave Morley, Jack Wedgwood, Ann Porteus, Jeff Gouveia will review documents submitted regarding home size restriction in Bear Valley and determine a go-forward plan.

 

Discussion: Expecting application for new home on Flynn Road. Expecting a request for a new siding replacement.

We still need a new BVRI Board leader for this event. We currently lose about $1500 annually on this event. Discussion of simplifying the event and food to reduce cost. Further exploration and discussion is planned before final picnic program is established.

Next newsletter in final development now.
