New Business:
\n <\/strong>Jeff Norlin, Meeker Co. Sheriff spoke to the board about looking for ways to better communicate with lake associations and people living on the lakes in Meeker Co.  They are in a discussion stage of using emails to notify people of specific crime alerts out on the lakes.  He asked if we would consider sharing our email list with the Meeker Co. Sheriff\u2019s Dept. for them to use in getting out these notices. 
\n
\n Board discussion focused on getting feedback from members regarding email list being shared with Meeker Co. Sheriff.  Other concerns were could people unsubscribe, getting individuals permission to share this information, and would the notices be pertinent to Lake Washington. 
\n
\n Rick volunteered to talk with Sheriff about regarding limits on what kind of information would be sent, privacy of the members, and that the list would not be used in any way not specifically approved by the board.
\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n Noted a thank you card was sent to the Lake Association by the Dennis Westendorp family. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n The board approved giving the Steve Hanson Firm power of attorney for filing the Form 990 and 501c3 paperwork only.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n Tabled committee assignments for new members until they are present.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n Board had a discussion about Meeker County Lakes Association and decided to invite Orlin Ortloff to the next board meeting for conversation about his role, Lake Washington\u2019s part, and what MCLA means to our association.  \n \n <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

LAKE VEGETATION MANAGEMENT PLAN:
\n Steve is working on developing this, with much of the information provided by various state agencies.  We have the water quality information, need additional \u201cpoint intercept\u201d information from this year. 
\n
\n
\n EXOTIC SPECIES:
\n Milfoil treatment appears to be successful.  We are waiting for a report from PLM.  Bill C. was notified Patrick from PLM will do a tour of the treated areas on Thurs. Aug. 21.  Bill will respond to Patrick\u2019s email and ask about how many visitors can go with on his boat.  Discussed observations of treatment and believed for liability reasons could not be on the boat during treatments. 
\n
\n The board expressed a desire to get more information from PLM about treatment plans and ongoing status of the results.  Bill Craig currently writes grants to DNR and Meeker County Lakes Assn. He would like someone else to learn how to write these.  He has one year left on the board and wants to share the \u201chow to\u201d information with someone else.  He has records of all these, and the board discussed keeping this with someone on the Exotic Species Committee.
\n
\n
\n COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE:
\n Rick did a great job with the Newsletter.  He has made changes and updated email, phone, and members list from August Bar B Q. 
\n
\n SOCIAL COMMITTEE:
\n John reported Hojie\u2019s has not sent a bill for the meat and the many door prizes were very nice.
