2012 Meeting Minutes

Appletree Point Association Meeting    

Saturday, July 23, 2012 

Held at the home of Ty and Helene Danco.

In attendance:  Andy & Rich Kenney, Rolly Delfausse, Rolfe &Viraj Eastman, Brooke Gillman, Ian Bleakney & Shanta Eastman, Jeff Haig, Eric Miller, Ned & Jackie MacCarty, Anne Conlin, Helene & Ty Danco, and Christine Campbell.

Meeting called to order at 10:15 am. Ty Danco moved to accept the minutes of the 2011 Annual Meeting. Seconded by Eric Miller. Minutes were approved.

Treasurer’s report: Christine Campbell announced we have $12,932.58 in our account. Dues collected for 2011 were $375. 

Road report: Every year money for the road work is collected by those concerned, put into our account, then paid out to the contractor. The “road people” are currently waiting for estimates on gravel and will then proceed with the repairs. Christine asked if anyone knows of other surfacing agents that would work better than the limestone mix they have been using.

Beach committee: There are large pieces of debris on the beaches on the west side of the bay. Last year a 15 yard dumpster cost $200. for one week and included the two adjacent weekends. Money from the beach fund (from the sale of the tractor and roto-tiller) will pay for a dumpster this summer. Eric Miller and Rich Kenney will let members know when and where it will be located,(perhaps Eric’s driveway). Anyone living on the beach can take their beach debris to the dumpster.

If necessary, after the large debris is removed, we can contact Parks & Recreation to rake the beach to remove the little plants and trees taking root.

Dues: Jackie MacCarty moved to continue collecting $25 for dues this year. Anne Conlin seconded the motion. Discussion followed on the pros and cons. Brooke Gillman suggested we collect them this year but in future years when we don’t have any know expenses, we might consider skipping a year. A vote was taken and passed. We will collect dues this year. Please mail your $25 check to the Appletree Point Association, care of Christine Campbell at 406 Appletree Point Road, as soon as possible.

Election: Kit Ardell is resigning as Association secretary. Andy Kenney offered to take her place. A motion was made by Eric Miller to approve the slate and Ned MacCarty seconded it.
