The City is now getting into the budgeting process for next year. The property assessments have been changing. Market values are going down, lakeshore is going down the fastest. This is causing the offshore property taxes to rise. The city budget is $4M per year and has been for the past 2 years. Sewer was being looked at for our area. The city’s sewer service can handle 650 homes. Now they have 354 users. Putting sewer into OLLHA would cost ~ $2M. This is not on the table any more. Current systems need to be kept up. Washing machine filters are one thing that is important to keep lint out of the lines. To get permits to add structures to your property, your sewer systems need to be compliant. Question was asked about what to do about problem properties. Darrel stated we should contact the Planning and Zoning team. If we aren’t getting responses, Darrel says to contact him personally. Question was asked on the future of the Town Square. Nothing planned with existing economic situation. Question was asked on the future of the vacant buildings on Route 66. The Chamber of Commerce is the group that is monitoring the health of this situation. Some of the buildings are beyond use, others are being repurposed. This is an ongoing battle.</p><p>OLLHA In Confidence OLLHA Meeting Minutes, cont’d Page 2 of 2</p><p>(Old Business cont’d)</p><p>Architecture Committee: Norm Riska Norm is trying to get all architectural requests answered within 2 weeks. Norm reviewed the current Architecture Guidelines.</p><p>OLLHA changes in 2011 (One of Forced Transition): New dock and lift service. Better service, no hill damage and saved us $1,070 per year. New external maintenance structure – Now using North Country Lawn Care (NCLC). We are actually saving ~$1K per year. We also have a new general maintenance person, Mike McCormick is now doing that. Mike is a jack of all trades and will be a good addition to our support team. In 2008 the Workers Comp rules changed so we needed someone with Workers Comp. Mike now has Workers Comp. Move towards the outsourcing of Treasure duties. Sandy Brodin has been our treasure for many years. As of now we have nobody to sign checks so we need to appoint a new treasure and add that person and the president to be check signers.</p><p>New Business:</p><p>Patty Norgaard talking about an author in or association.
