New business:

Newsletter: Hannah Walters will be creating this year’s newsletter and mailing to all members after the AGM to include a summation of the AGM, rules, Updated Executive board members, and updated board of directors.

 

Lights: David Rousseau is currently working with RJR engineering consulting firm who finds the most cost effective way to install the lighting. A surveyor came to assess the property and the LED lights that we are talking about installing will have a plastic lens to prevent damage. They surveyor quoted a need for 3-4 posts that will illuminate the pathway to the beach at night. It is possible that we will not need an engineer which will significantly lower the cost. This is not being voted in as of yet as we are still in the planning phase gathering all information. This is being approached with a Budget conscious mindset as we are not for profit.

 

Business cards: The board had voted in ordering business cards with all contact information to be included in the newsletter. The business card will be mailed to all members of The Pinehurst Beach Preservation Society.

Leona called regarding street light for the new telephone pole outside of the beach entrance to see if they ould install a street light. The town will not install another street light on Old Lake Shore and mailed a letter to Leona as follow up to her request.

 

Leo Pszeniczny offered to weld the chain and padlock to fence so it cannot be removed. This was voted in by all beach members and board members.

 

Deb Pound suggested that we use some of our funds to get a new Picnic table. David Rousseau offered to ask his friend who is making our sign, this was voted in by all beach members and board members.
