Public Comment:

Jeff Green Golf Course Lessee.  Jeff is reporting on the golf course for the 4th quarter of 2010.  It was better than expected because he offered a discount special for the season pass purchases.  Overall he was only down about 3-4% for the year.  Jeff asks if the board would be willing to pay half on sprinkler heads again this year.  However, he would not be able to pay his portion until summer because of his cash flow.  Randy asks if he can wait till summer to get the heads.  Jeff replies yes because he still has about 20 left from last year that he can get in this spring.  Another suggestion would be to re-do 2 of the cart paths.  Randy states that whatever Jeff feels would be best, the board will match funds.  Jeff will go ahead and get some estimates on the cart paths and then make a decision.  Scott states that we will be roofing both the golf course pro-shop building and the clubhouse.  Jeff also comments that there have been reports of 4-wheelers driving on the golf course and he has asked anyone who sees them to please report it to the sheriff's office.

Kendall Thomas, Stockton, Utah.  Kendall is here to ask for the Service Agency's support in the efforts to save the Stockton sandbar.  He states that Tooele, Stockton and Grantsville have already adopted resolutions  Kendall has noticed the good things that the Service Agency is doing and would like to have Stansbury Park represented in this endeavor.  Lake Bonneville made the sandbar thousands of years ago.  It runs east and west and is the only one left in North America that is still intact.  Harper Construction bought about 40 acres of it and want to develop it.  Kendall's position is that we need to preserve it for our children and grandchildren.  It is also a wind break from Grantsville and it has significant geological value.  He feels that if we have enough citizens supported by their government, we can save it.  He leaves the resolutions for the boards review and offers a tour to anyone that would like to see the sandbar

Probable Vote Items:

a.         Clubhouse Renovations--Christy Achziger.   Christy states that most of the trustees had a chance to see the progress of the basement.  She turns the time over to Kimberly.  Kimberly shows the carpet sample that has been selected.  The other flooring is a commercial grade glue down which will be in the big room and bar room.  We received a great price on flooring for doing the entire clubhouse.  She states that she would love to see the board members schedule the clubhouse for a family event so everyone can enjoy it.    Scott suggests getting enough carpet to redo the stairs if need be.  Randy asks how we are doing on the budget.  Christy states that right now we are still ok but that we may need to increase it in the future.  We also had to hire a general contractor to do some electrical and plumbing for the permit.  Jeff Green comments that there is a portion of carpet near the doorway of the pro shop that needs to be replaced.  We may possibly have enough carpet to do that area although Jeff may consider putting in some other material.

b.         Board Elections--Scott Totman.
            Tabled until the next meeting when Rod Thompson and Glenn Oscarson can be in attendance.
c.         Committee Assignments--Scott Totman.

Work Session:

Possible Vote Items:

a.         Gordon Well--Scott Totman.  Randy states that Glenn, Scott and himself had a meeting with Brock Griffiths concerning the Gordon Well.  They came to an agreement that the Service Agency will waive $5,000.00 of the impact fees for a quit claim deed to the well.  Brock Griffith will take care of the legal and engineering work that will give us a 5' boundary around the well house and the easement across the property.  Scott states that we are also obligated to stucco and shingle the building to make it look more acceptable and we will apply the other $400.00 of the impact fees to this improvement.  We will also give them access across the greenbelt.  Brock will bring in the paperwork before the board votes.
           
Manager’s Report:

Chris states that he has had some compliments on the good job being done on snow removal.  There has been a truck parked in the parking lot of the clubhouse which gets in the way of snow removal. The board wants to have it removed and asks Chris to call the sheriff.  The board also compliments Chris for doing a great job on the snow removal.  Scott asks as a local business owner if there is a way to contract with the Service Agency to remove snow at his business.  The other members state that it is not something that can be done. 

Chris states that SPID had a water leak at the entrance and has done some damage to the greenbelt when they were doing the digging and repairs.  They assured Chris that they will take care of the restoration.

The clubhouse roofing was discussed.  Scott states that we need to make an adjustment in the budget to accommodate the price.  Randy states that the current budget should cover it and agreed that if we need to adjust it we can do that at a later date.  Scott asks if there was a leak in the roof of the golf course restroom.  Randy states that he didn't believe there was one but if so it would be Jeff Green's responsibility.  Chris states that contractor is offering a 5% discount if we can commit within the next 2 weeks.  Chris will bring color and style samples at the next meeting.
Christy motions to accept the bid for slate style concrete tile roofing at the clubhouse and the golf course building.   Randy seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.             

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Christy Achziger--Christy states that with the renovations in the clubhouse which should be complete by February or March, we will need to adjust the rental fees.  The basement will now be comparable to the upstairs.  Kimberly and Christy will work on the figures and would like this item put on the agenda for the next meeting. 

Christy comments that Gary Ziser passed away this last weekend and thanks him for his dedicated service on the Service Agency board.

Randy Jones--Randy states that the roof of the pavilion at the 28 Acre park is going on and looks really good.  He also met with Leucadia and Jim Lear concerning the Delgada fountain.  Leucadia has agreed not to put up a concrete wall and are willing to work with Jim Lear on the project.  We will have a fountain at no cost to the Service Agency.

Manager’s Report:

The board asks Chris to do something with the dumpster at the golf course so that it can be seen at night as it is a hazard.  They also ask Chris to have the high windows in the clubhouse checked and replaced as needed while doing the roof.

Stan requests to have some crew time to finish up installing the boiler.

Scott asks Chris to get the training for the gopher waster and training for pesticides if needed.

There was some discussion concerning the work by the soccer field on Aberdeen.

The board disagrees over the color choice for the roof tile.  I was decided that each trustee will come by the clubhouse Thursday morning to see the tiles in the daylight and have a decision made by 12:00 p.m.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Christy Achziger--Christy states that the building inspector from Tooele County will be here tomorrow to inspect the power, plumbing and wallboard in the basement.

Randy Jones-- Randy states that the pavilion is almost done at the 28 acre park and Rocky Mt. Power will need to come out to power up the park.

Glenn Oscarson--Glenn wants the trustees to bring back a "wish list" of how to spend the capital improvement money.  He also plan on applying for the Recreation grant and is looking for any requests.  It was suggested that the board should also apply for the Tourism grant.

He would also like the cemetery to get some focus this year and to possibly be able to start selling plots by Stansbury Days.  Stansbury Days was discussed.  It is our 40 year anniversary of Stansbury Park.  He would like to invite some of the original developers for a dinner and to see the fireworks.  He suggests having a little more on the fireworks display.

The spring bulbs have been planted and Glenn asks Chris to watch for the gophers so that they do not eat them.  He also suggests ordering annuals from the high school.

Glenn suggests looking into the tree grant so that we can get some more trees.

Rod Thompson--The pipe relining project is designed and will go out to bid within the coming month.  SPID will match last year's money and this year's money which will equal $140,000.00.  We will match with 140,000.00 bringing the total to $280,000.00 for re-lining/piping project.  A lengthy discussion about how many pipes can be done, prep time for pipes and labor expense.  The board needs to decide what can be done this year so Rod can proceed with the bid process.  The current proposed plan is to re-line the #9 and #10 ponds on the golf course and re-line 400' of pipe.  The pipe lining has a 50 year warranty.  Chris will figure out how much total piping needs to be lined.  Rod will get an actual price per lineal foot to line the pipes.  At the next meeting the board will decide if we will do all of the pipe lining or only a portion. 

Correspondence:

Mark Austin, 194 Country Club.  Mark asks if the board has looked into the phragmites concern in the golf course ponds.  Randy states that yes we have and are going to spray them in the spring.

Probable Vote Items:

a.         Clubhouse Rental Fee Increase--Christy Achziger.  Christy motions that we  approve the proposed written fee changes and the additional verbiage in the contract after striking "estimate in place" on the agreement.  Scott seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.

Recess: 

None.

Work Session:

Possible Vote Items:

Glenn states that he has received the documents from Brock Griffith however he cannot convey the property to us until he has closed on his home.  Brock will convey ownership and easements to the Service Agency and pay all legal costs in exchange for $5,000.00 of the $5,400.00 impact fee.

Glenn states that the first batch of roof tile is here.  He explains getting a lighter weight tile for the golf course pro shop because of the roof not being as strong as the clubhouse.  This will cost approximately $1,800.00 more, but still has the 75 year warranty.  There was a short discussion and the board agrees with the extra expense.

The Tourism Grant was discussed and it was decided that Scott will prepare the application and use the Utah TriSports Triathlon as the project.  The application is due in March.  The Recreation Grant was also discussed.  Randy suggests Boyer park, tennis courts or playgrounds.  Randy will get some prices together. 

Glenn has been approached by some scouts looking for Eagle scout projects.  He suggests putting in sand and volleyball posts at the Boyer park, a new sign for the clubhouse and re-doing the tables behind the clubhouse. 

Tooele County Trails Commission has contacted Glenn about putting in some trails.  Chris suggested putting in a trail on the north side of Clubhouse Drive along the Millpond.  Another suggestion was along the sound wall on the frontage road.  Glenn will check with the trail commission and find out what they will actually do.

Glenn would like to have the board go on a field trip to Westlake Village, California.  It is very similar to our community, with a golf course, cemetery and lake. It has a nice boat dock that accommodates the rest of the community.  Glenn has already asked them if they would speak with our board members and they agreed.  He feels that we could gain some good information and get some ideas from them.  The board members were all interested and had more discussion.  Christy will check the Utah code and legality and Glenn will do some follow-up.

Manager’s Report:

Chris is unable to attend the meeting tonight but Kasey Nobles fills in for him and reports that they have been looking at purchasing a used tractor.  This would help them tremendously with the head gates on the golf course ponds, unloading material and other projects.  It would also be needed when the cemetery is finally begun.  Kasey states that they have done some comparative shopping and this tractor that they are looking at is a repo with 400 hours on it with a price of $62,000.00.  After much discussion, Scott motions to approve the purchase of the tractor at $60,000.00 including forks and a warranty.  Christy seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.  Stan will meet with Chris and visit RMT to make the offer.
           
Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Randy Jones-- Randy will be turning over the coordination of getting the power into the 28 acre park to Tom Parker to work out with Rocky Mountain Power.  Glenn comments that the grass on the outside of the sidewalk areas is still a mess.  There is too much alkali in the soil and the grass is not taking hold.

Scott Totman--Scott has a couple of ideas for spending some of the extra money.  He passes out 2 maps.  One idea is for the boat dock and will be submitted with the Tourism Grant application.  The other is for a dog park area located south of the clubhouse tennis courts.  Scott also states that he was approached by a recycling center that will be putting out a questionnaire to residents concerning recycling options and preferences. 

Glenn Oscarson-- Glenn states that the drug policy has been retyped and the CDL requirements removed.  Scott motions to accept the drug policy, Christy seconds, all vote in favor and the motion passes.

Correspondence:

Cindy asks if the pool rates will be changed this year.  The board agreed that unless Donna felt strongly that they need to be raised, then we'll keep the rates the same this year.

Financials and Bills:

The checks were signed and the bills taken care of.  A copy of the budget overview was given to each board member.

Public Comment:

Ron Totman, 112 Lakeview and Kristen Ashton, Tooele County Water Polo Team.  Ron states that as a team the expenses add up and the they are asking leaderships for sponsorship to help with funds.  They have many expenses including referees, swim suits, balls, etc.   Their main fundraiser is to sell oranges.  They are also asking permission to host a water polo contest at Stansbury Days using the lake.  Randy states that the service agency has set a precedence against donating funds but we can give permission to use the lake.  Stan also states that his wife owns the daycare in Stansbury Park and Tooele and gives Ron the permission to post an ordering sign-up sheet in both of the centers for parents to order oranges.  Christy also suggests that small business may be a better avenue to look at for fund raising.  They can also apply for the Tooele County Recreation Grant.

Walt Holmes, 238 Country Club.  Walt suggests that we work with SPID on pond #5 possibly using another aerator.  It is in bad shape with a lot of algae growth.  He also states that we are still losing trees, especially the Russian Olives on the Frontage Road and suggests checking with  Sagers on what type of trees would be best suited for this area.
Probable Vote Items:

a.         Field Trip to Westlake Village, CA--Glenn Oscarson.  Glenn states that the board and Chris can gain some great information.  The community is very similar to ours, including the lake, golf course, parks and a cemetery.  Christy states that she has looked up the code and checked with LeGrand Bitter from Utah Association of Special Districts.  The findings are that it must be posted as a regular meeting where no business action will be taken, that this will be a fact-gathering tour and minutes will be taken. 
Scott motions that the board members and Chris Reiter take this fact-gathering tour to Westlake Village and adhere to the regulations that Christy has provided.  Christy seconds, all vote in favor and the motion passes.
The board decided that March 16th would be the best day and has the cheapest air fare.  Glenn will take care of the reservations and make arrangements with the city manager at Westlake Village.
Recess: 

None.

Work Session:

Possible Vote Items:

a.         Cemetery Update -- Glenn Oscarson.  Glenn states that the community must petition Tooele County for creation of the cemetery.  It must be a certain percentage of the people who voted in the last election.  There will also have to be a special election to the public at large allowing the Service Agency to take over the services of the cemetery.  There would be no tax increase, it would become part of our responsibilities.  Some concerns were expressed concerning demographics, funding and ground suitability.  Glenn will bring our concerns up at the next committee meeting.

Manager’s Report:

Chris states that the roof will be done in a couple of days and the clubhouse basement should be complete except for the flooring and the women's restroom by the end of the week.  The tree damage from the last wind storm has been cleaned up and the landscaping project on Village Blvd. and Aberdeen is still on schedule.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Randy Jones-- The pavilion at the 28 acre park is almost complete and Tom will be getting the power on.  Randy received notice from the county that they are having difficulty finding a way to deed over Hampton Circle to us.  The easiest way would be to have an interlocal agreement that we will maintain it and they will keep ownership.
Randy also states that he will be working with Jerry Caldwell at the Tooele County Weed Control Division to start spraying the phragmites weeds

Rod Thompson-- Rod states that the engineers on the pipe lining project will meet with Chris on Monday morning.  He also would like to put a grant request in for the trail along the sound wall and power to the golf course pavilion.  Randy comments that we don't own the property from the firehouse to the dentist office along the sound wall.  Rod will check with UDOT to see if a trail could be a possibility.  Other suggestions include:  tennis courts, playground and a pavilion at the top of the Millpond.

Stan Record--Stan states that when we do the tree project on the Parkway and along the Frontage Road, the old trees should be removed first before planting the new ones.

Scott Totman-- Scott states that the monolith by the Maverik does not look good and asks if we could have the contractor come and see if he can make some improvements to it.  Chris comments that it may be an additional cost because the board already approved it for payment.  Scott would also like to see the tree stumps taken care of.

Glenn Oscarson-- Glenn states that the negotiations on the tractor purchase are still ongoing.  Some discussion  was held concerning the purchase or leasing of a tractor.  Rod will work with Chris tomorrow on leasing options. 
Glenn comments that the high school has asked about putting some fish in to the lake.  They can put in whatever we would like.  There are some concerns about the eco-system.  Glenn will also pursue the Kennecott Grant and has prepared a thank you letter to the Tooele County Recreation Board for the grant that helped us put in the 28 Acre Park pavilion.

Clint Barnes, 5368 Horseshoe Drive.  Clint has started a group called Oquirrh Mountain Sports which is open to all ages.  They are trying to do some community events such as a 5k race and a triathlon and would like permission to hold some of these events here in Stansbury Park.  Clint states that Stansbury is a great place and would be a great venue for these kind of events.   The board was okay with this request as long as he scheduled his events so that they do not conflict with other events.  Rod also asks Clint to submit a route map and a plan outlining how they will be handling the traffic control. 

Probable Vote Items:

a.         Backhoe Lease--Glenn Oscarson.  Chris explains the options of the backhoe and the lease.  This will be for a Case Backhoe at $240.00 per month for 300 hours.  Forks are not included and will cost $1,500.00 to purchase.  In-house maintenance is standard.  We will need to carry the insurance but there is a manufacturer warranty.  Chris will do more research before purchasing the forks.

Manager’s Report:

The clubhouse basement and roof should be done by the end of the week, with carpeting and flooring completed by the end of next week. 

Chris has removed the trees that were blown down in the last storm and also ground down all of the stumps.

Chris reports that he researched the cost of aerators for the golf course ponds.  They range in price from $2,500.00 to $5,000.00.  There are also solar powered aerators which may be an option. 

Chris met with Clark McFarland, the engineer, on the pipe re-lining.  Clark suggested sending a camera through all the pipes before putting it out to bid.  Another suggestion that Clark had was to install new head gates with cement boxes.  Rod states that we will also need an engineer's estimate of cost and also 3 bids for sending a camera down all of the pipes and cleaning them.  This will be addressed again in 2 weeks. 

The Eagle scout bike rack project is almost complete.  There is another scout wanting to clean up garbage in Stansbury Park.  Stan suggests having them clean the tape off the signs.

Chris states that there has been a question of where on the boat the registration sticker should be located.  The board agrees that it can be anywhere on the boat as long as it is visible.  It should not be on the trailer.

Discussion ensues regarding several ideas for the recreation grant.  It was decided to put in four different requests in the priority listed below:

Paving the parking lot on Aberdeen   $20,000.00 (Glenn)

Stan Record-- Stan has asked Chris to check on the playground equipment.  Chris states that some of the playgrounds are getting too old to obtain replacement parts but overall they are all in pretty good shape.

Scott Totman-- Scott reports that there are doggie pots floating in the lake again.  Scott has had some residents ask why they are not allowed to play on the Boyer park.  Chris comments that it still does not belong to us and there are still groundwater problems.  Scott asks Chris to get the aqua shade into the lake as early as possible.

Glenn Oscarson-- Glenn asks for ideas for Arbor Day.  Some ideas were suggested.  Glenn asks if anyone objects to having sand and volleyball nets put in at Boyer park put on the list of eagle project ideas.  No one objects.

March 16, 2011 Westlake Village in California Visit

The Stansbury Service Agency of Tooele County conducted a site visit to the City of Westlake Village in the state of California on March 16, 2011.  The visit was organized by Chairman Glen Oscarson.  The purpose of the visit was for the Trustees of the Agency to gather information that could be used in the future planning of Stansbury Park as Westlake Village is the community upon which Stansbury Park is modeled.  The entire board participated in the visit including:  Glen Oscarson (Chairman), Scott Totman, Christy Achziger, Randy Jones, Stan Record, and Rod Thompson.  The Park Manager, Chris Reider, also attended. 

The group arrived in California at 7:40 a.m. at which time they proceeded to travel by car to the City of Westlake Village.  Upon arriving at the City Hall of Westlake Village, the Stansbury Park trustees met with Scott Wolf (Senior Planner), Bob Theobold (City Planner), John Knight (City Engineer), and Mark Rutherford (City Council Member and former Mayor). 

Chairman Oscarson began the meeting by introducing everyone.  Next, he described the county government structure that Stansbury Park is a part of.  A slide show of Stansbury Park was presented with discussion among those in the meeting about the similarities and differences between the two communities.  Trustee Jones asked about the budget for Westlake Village.  Westlake has about $7 million in its general fund and $5 to $6 million in its restricted funds. Their revenue comes from property tax, 1% of sales tax and transient tax (hotels).  Westlake has ten full time employees.  A lot of work for the community is subcontracted out.  The population is 9,000.  The city maintains the roads.  Currently, Westlake is rebuilding an overpass and is building a community park. 

The Westlake representatives encouraged the Stansbury Park representatives to aid in commercial development for Stansbury.  Westlake actively sought after commercial enterprise about a decade ago.  Costco was their first business “anchor”.  Bringing in commercial development really helped Westlake financially.  Bringing in hotels has also helped. 

The lake in Westlake is handled much differently than Stansbury Lake.  The Westlake lake has residential homes built around it and is private.  Residents on the lake pay higher HOA fees. There is also commercial development on the lake.  Maintenance of the lake is leased out and uses about a $2 million budget.  All California water regulations must be followed.  The water in the lake is retained by a dam.  The lake is stocked.  Non-residents of the lake have two points of access.  All the homes on the lake have docks.  Electric and sail boats are the only crafts allowed on the lake.  There is no swimming allowed in the lake.  The lake has been dredged a couple of times. 

As a note, there is a 200 year easement on the golf course.  The golf course is private and there are no residential homes built around it. 

Parting advice from the Westlake representatives was:  Stansbury Park should secure having zoning authority, get a specific plan of development and form a development agreement.  The plan should include residential as well as commercial.
In the afternoon, the Stansbury Park representatives met with Carl Koenig, Lake Operations Manager.  Carl described the operations there to include five workboats that operate seven days a week.  There are 9.8 miles of shoreline to maintain.   There is catch and release fishing allowed.  It is forty dollars a year for a fishing license.  Controlling non-residents from fishing on the lake is a constant problem.  The lake management enforces the HOA rules on the lake.  A person has to go before the Executive Board of the HOA after multiple in fractures.  The Board can asses fines. 

The entire shoreline of the lake is cemented.  This is to cut down on shore erosion.  The cement to do this was pumped in.  The lake itself is an excavated flood control area and is dammed.  The docks are maintained by the homeowners.  The docks are a standard 8 X 16.  The lake is patrolled until 11 p.m.  Feeding the ducks is not allowed and geese are water sprayed after triggering a motion detector.  The electric boats on the lake are doubled hulled which cuts down on shore erosion.  Dock fees run $2650 per year, kayaks are $500 per year.  Registration numbers are placed on the back of the boats.  There is a yacht club and a large number of boats on the lake.  Dock fees bring in substantial revenue.

The lake in Westlake has similar weed issues that the Stansbury Lake has.  The following products are used in Westlake to control aquatic weed growth:  Sonar, Captain, Copper Sulphate and Reward.  These products are ordered from the vendors Clean Lakes and Aqua Technics.  Oil booms are used are used in Westlake to gather algae and then the algae is vacuumed up.  The docks on the lake are L shaped which makes navigating the fingers of the lake easier. 

The Stansbury Park trustees toured the City of Westlake Village at length.  They were given a boat tour of the lake.  In addition, they traveled extensively throughout the neighborhoods.  Some ideas mentioned while touring:
*plant trees in the islands on Stansbury Parkway,
*public docks and commercial ventures on the lakeshore,
*”party boats” on the lake,
*benches for sitting on the causeway and greenbelts,
*dig out under the causeway to make a bridge boats could go under.
The Board traveled home and arrived in Utah at 10:30 p.m.

Glenn Oscarson-- The new bids for paving the parking lot on Village Boulevard and Aberdeen have been received.  Rod motions that we approve this project with Morgan Asphalt for $18,800.00.  Scott seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes. 

The additional aerator for the pond will cost $2,100.00 with an additional $1.50 a foot for cable.  This should make the cost under $2,700.00.  The agreement with Brett is that we will purchase the aerator and he will pay for installation and maintain it.  Glenn will follow-up with Brett.

We are waiting for bids on the tennis courts.  Some of the courts need to be re-surfaced.  The estimate for this is about $4,500.00.

Scott was wondering if anyone had heard from the Mosquito Abatement people about when they would be spraying. 

Scott asks if we are going to get the monolith repaired this year.  Chris states that we did sign off on the repairs that were already made so it would be an additional cost to have more work done.  Scott comments that the Community Association people are not happy that we are not going to put their marquee back up on the monolith.  The other marquee has been running business ads.  Christy states that this is against county code.  Scott comments that if they were using the marquee for community things he felt that he would be more willing to work with them.

Public Comment:

Ilene Solomon, 201 Lakeview.    Ilene relates an incident where a previous resident introduced 4 domestic geese in to the lake.  These geese have now become mean and vicious.  Ilene asked the Service Agency to take steps to remove them.  Glenn Oscarson talked with Ilene and tried to help but stated that the agency could not do anything and suggested calling the county animal control or a pest removal service.  Ilene contacted the county animal control who stated that they could not do anything unless the county attorney approved it.  Ilene persisted and looked into the county laws and found that the county is responsible and passes out a copy of the law to the board members. The county did come and remove the geese.  Ilene states that she appreciates Glenn's concern and his help.

April and Girl Scout Troop 46.  Each girl scout spoke about the litter they have found in the lake and surrounding it.  They present a poster with several pictures showing the trash.  They would like to have signs printed with "Please Do Not Litter---Donated by Girl Scout Troop 46".  These would be put up in 3 locations, the boat ramp, near the swimming pool and on the lake side of the bridge.  If approved they will put the signs up on July 12th and will also maintain them.  The board approves this request.  Christy commends the girls being willing to make positive changes and approaching the board with their presentation.

Neil Smart, 456 Country Club.  Neil comments that the service agency did a great job on the pond that was done recently, however the hydro seed is not growing in.  He asks if Chris could come and take another look at it and see what could be done to get the grass growing in.

Brad Bettinson, Woodbury Corporation.  Brad is here representing Woodbury on the Stansbury Crossing development which is where the new Soelberg's Grocery store is being built.  He states that there has been an issue come up where there is not enough land to build a 5' landscape berm and to make it look good.  The need for the berm is to mitigate the impact to the residents behind the store when the trucks make night deliveries.  Woodbury will need to encroach onto the greenbelt 13'.  Discussion follows regarding this issue and also any water runoff problems.  Brad states that they will maintain their side and the Service Agency will maintain our side.  The board members and Brad agreed to work together on a plan that both parties will be happy with.  Rod emphasizes the need to take care of the drainage issues.  Scott also asks Brad to visit with the homeowners

Manager’s Report:

The manager's report states that Chris is still not pumping because of the rain. 

Rod reports that the parking lot is still not asphalted yet.  It still needs more about 3' more excavation in a few more areas.  The board approved the extra excavation if needed. 

The golf course piping project started Monday and is about half complete.  They are past the critical portion, however they did hit a 2" water line which Chris got repaired.  Rod states that it became very evident that the golf course needs to get isolation valves as it took 3 hours to drain the lines before the break could be repaired.  Chris, Cory, Colton, Brett and the contractor are doing an excellent job and it should be completed in about 2 days.

Randy comments that the 28 Acre Park has lost about 110 trees.  They will need to do some testing to find the cause, however it could possibly be that they were planted with the burlap sack around the roots. 

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Rod Thompson-- Rod states that 3 of the ponds are ready to go to bid.  The engineers estimate came in at about $275,000.00.  We still need to make a decision on which pond or ponds will be done.  Brett has committed to pay 1/2 of the cost and Rod will talk to him and get a final number before we commit. 

Randy Jones--  Randy states that the park is not ready to be opened this year.  We'll get the playground in and possibly the tennis courts but it still needs the parking lot.  The trees and grass need more time to get established.  Randy also states that the mosquitoes are bad at the park and he will get in touch with the mosquito abatement.

Brent Rose is working with the county on the cemetery. 

Christy Achziger-- Christy suggests having a "pig roast" for the Stansbury Days dinner that Glenn is planning.

Public Comment:

Jeff Green, Golf Course Lessee. Jeff reports on the recent tragedy where Neil Magann lost his life after his lawn mower slid into one of the ponds and trapped him underwater.  It has been a very sad time.  OSHA has been working with Jeff however he does not know what their report will state.  Jeff also reports that the 2nd quarter was down about $10,000.00 from last spring because we had so much rain.  The piping project went well and appreciates Chris being able to get the sprinkler lines repaired the same day that they were broken by the contractor.  The next project will be the re-lining of 3 ponds.

Wayne Rogers, Absolute Scuba.  Wayne comments that he was told they could not use the pool this year because they did not keep up their end of the bargain.  He was unaware of anything that needed to be done and asked if he missed something.  Scott states that it must have been a misunderstanding.  That they only want to see that it was treated as a business, paying for the pool use and the service agency would pay for their services when needed.  Wayne will work out a fee and use schedule with Donna.

Bob Ross, Playspace Design, playground presentation.  Bob introduces himself and shows a video of children playing on their equipment.  This playground is very unique, different and is called a destination playground.  He states that it is made in Denmark and is good quality construction.  He presents 2 different options that he put together for Stansbury Park that are within the $100,000.00 budget.

Probable Vote Items:

a.         Woodbury Corporation landscape plan for Stansbury Crossing Development. 
Brad presents larger prints of the landscape plan showing more details that they have added. Randy questioned whether this would add to our maintenance. Brad replies no, that Woodbury will also move and adjust the sprinklers. They will be using 4" rock mulch which is nicer that the wood mulch. Their maintenance contract will include garbage pick-up, sprinkler maintenance and mowing. Their side will be a drip system and the berm will be 5" high. The planning commission was firm on the 5' berm. They will be planting 2 to 2-1/2" trees.  Brad will work up a contract and send the draft to the service agency for approval.  Randy states that he wants to have Chris sign this contract. There were a few questions from residents directed to Brad which were discussed. 
           
Recess: 

None.

Work Session:

Possible Vote Items:
                       
a. 28 Acre Park Maintenance--Randy Jones.
Randy states that the contractor has requested that the service agency take over the maintenance of the outside portion of the park. At this time the service agency maintains the inside of the sidewalk area which we took over before we really needed to showing our good faith. The outside area is still not growing grass and there are still trees that are dead. Chris states that he is planting grass seed in some test areas to get a feel for what it takes to get the grass growing. There was some discussion and the decision was made not to take over the maintenance until it is acceptable. Stan states that when the contractor gives us a bid and then wants to add something that he missed before bidding, it is not our responsibility to pay for their error. If  they did not assess soil conditions before bidding then it is their problem. Stan disagrees strongly with paying anything over the original bid unless a change order is approved by the board.
           
Manager’s Report:

Chris states that the lake measurement is still up.  Randy asks Chris to turn the pump on low and to add more aqua shade.  The lake water seems to be a little murky which could be due to several reasons.  Scott compliments Ted on the excellent job he is doing with the lake weeds. 

The parking lot on Aberdeen and Village is completed but has not been striped yet. 

The piping project on the golf course is complete and the contractor will be placing sod however they are concerned there will be some settling.

A 2"  water meter broke over by the new store so we will be receiving an invoice from SPID to replace it.   

The annual car show will be north of the T-ball fields on the grass.  Chris will see that the sprinklers are marked.

Chris and his crew have treated the front 9 pond's for weeds but states that they will need another application. 

Scott asks if any progress has been made on the lake fountain that needs a new timer.  Chris will follow-up with an electrician.

New drinking fountains were installed, one at the pool and one at the ball field.

Rod and the rest of the board thank Chris for all that he does.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Randy Jones--  Randy discusses the playground presentations that we have seen and states that he is impressed with tonight's equipment.  He suggests making a down payment this year and wait to install it in the spring.  That would cover the $30,000.00 that needs to be spent this year. 

Randy comments that he has talked with Ted about the lake mower.  Ted states that it is very difficult to get the boat parked at the ramp, especially if the wind is blowing, and difficult to get on and off of it.  Randy asks if anyone would have any objections to parking the boat in the inlet in front of his house where it was last year.  He suggests building a nice boardwalk with stairs and improve the greenbelt area.  The rest of the board is okay with this suggestion.  More discussion about the boat was held, and Chris will budget for painting and repairing the boat next year.

Rod Thompson-- There has been a change order made to the engineering on the pond re-lining project.  Rod appreciates Chris spraying the weeds in those pond's and states that it will also help the contractor.

Stan Record--  Stan states that the invoice for the boiler parts will come tomorrow and is a bit higher due to the price of copper.  Stan would also like a letter sent out to the residents reminding them to keep their lake trampolines tied up to their property when not in use.

Scott Totman-- Scott reports that some residents have reported seeing bubbles coming into the lake.  This is from the diversion and nothing to be concerned about.  He wants to make sure that these things are logged in the complaint log.

Correspondence:

Cindy states that she has had a few inquiries about whether carp can be kept on the new "Catch and Release Policy".  The board agreed that it will be ok to keep carp.

Probable Vote Items:

            a.  2010 Financial Audit Report--Scott Wadman.  Scott reports that there were not any significant findings in the report.  There are still the findings regarding segregation of duties which has been in the report every year.  Scott recommended a couple of ways to make some improvements, one of which is using a Positive Pay System with the credit union.  Another  finding was that the budget amount was different than the revenue.  Scott apologized for this and it has been corrected.  The last finding was concerning the purchasing policy in which the state requires specific wording.  We will just need to make a revision.  Randy moves to accept the 2010 audit.  Scott seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.

            b.  Pond Re-lining Project Approval--Glenn Oscarson.  The bid opening was held last week.  There were only 2 contractors who bid on the project.  The proposals provided bids for owner provided liner and HDPE liner.  S&L Landscaping and Excavation is the low bidder.  Rod motions to approve $229,215.00 (total cost $458,430.12) and accept for S&L Landscape as the contractor for relining 3 ponds using the HDPE liner.  Christy seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.  SPID will be paying for half of the project.

Possible Vote Items:

            a.  28 Acre Park Discussion--There is still a problem getting the grass to grow and a lot of dead tress.  Randy states that we don't want to open the park to the public until the grass is well established.  The contractor will be re-seeding next week.
1.  Parking Lot--Discussion was held regarding the need for 400 parking stalls. It was felt that 400 was excessive for this park.  Rod states the need to hire an engineering firm to oversee the paving project which was estimated at about $5,000.00.  Glenn will contact the county to see if we have to have that many stalls before proceeding.
2.  Tennis Courts--It was discussed to put the tennis courts in this coming spring.
3.  Contract-- Tabled.

Manager’s Report:

The lake water is up to the weir.

Chris has put 20 gallons of aqua shade into the lake.  The board asks him to put in more for Stansbury Days.

Kravers has requested to use the baseball concession stand for Stansbury Days.  The board agreed that they can use it for a donation to baseball for $200.00 that can be used on the concession stand. 

Chris met with Regan Company concerning the algae in the ponds.  They said that the algae is curable within a couple of months but would need to be treated a couple of times.  This treatment is NSF approved.

Chris states that the Gator has broken down and is beyond making any repairs.  A short discussion was held regarding the purchase of a new Polaris Ranger.  Chris has a quote of $8,000.00 to purchase a new one and states the need for it before Stansbury Days.  The board asks him to check on KSL for used ones and get some good quotes before purchasing.

A couple of greenbelts are not getting watered because of the homes supplying water to them are vacant at this time.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Christy Achziger--Christy states that she has moved, however still has her home here in Stansbury Park.  She is also still a registered voter in Tooele County and plans to vote here so she is technically is still a resident.  She is willing to stay on the board until November before resigning and then the new trustee can start a month early.  The board agreed with this plan. 

Christy also states that the pool looks like it will break even this here.  The clubhouse is already $6,000.00 ahead in event rentals which she believes is because of the renovations.  The cost of them could easily be made back.

Randy Jones-- Randy reports that Leucadia would like to divest themselves of everything here in Stansbury Park but understand that they are still responsible for the Delgada fountain . They are interested in trading the fountain work for their interests in the E.T. Canal Millpond Water Rights.  The board agreed this would be a good trade and ask Randy to move forward.

Stan Record-- Stan suggests digging up the flower beds at the entrance and putting down weed blocker.  Chris can do this and possibly put in some mesh to try and control the gophers.

Scott Totman-- Scott states that he has $31,000.00 left in lake improvements and has done some research on boat docks.  The one he proposes is 40" long and 40" wide, easily expandable and long lasting. Right now, it would be for day use only.  It is $22,000.00 installed.  The rest of the board members agreed to go with this dock and give Scott the go-ahead.

Manager’s Report:

Kasey reads Chris' manager's report.

Stansbury Days was a successful event.  The organization was better this year than in the past.  Chris would like to personally thank the scouting group that did clean up for the great job that they did.  The board agreed to allow Chris to set up a pizza and pool party for them.

SPID did another well test witch resulted in the ponds on the back 9 being unusually full, prompting some residents to be concerned.  The levels receded after a couple of days.  Brett stated to Chris that this will be the last test for awhile.

There was an area on the soccer field behind a residents home that had a leaking sprinkler valve.  Chris has got the problem resolved.

Chris dug out one of the trees in the 28 acre park to see if he could determine why they died.  He believes the problem is overwatering.  The board members that met at the park before the meeting also observed this to be the problem.

Backflow testing will be done this coming week.

There was also a wasp infestation in one of the trees that needed a pest control company to come and treat.  This was done and the residents were notified.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Rod Thompson-- Rod reports that there is an issue with the pond relining project in regards to the engineering firm's agreement that will end with the "notice to proceed".  Brett requested a proposal from 2 firms to do the management.   He is still waiting for one of the proposals so the final cost is unknown.  A short discussion followed regarding the need for a management firm.  Scott motions that we spend a reasonable amount to hire a third party manager for this project.  Christy seconds the motion, all vote in favor and the motion passes.

Christy Achziger--Season passes at the pool were down this year but everything else is up which is great considering the weather in June.  Scott requests that the handrails and deck just outside of the conference room be repaired. He also states that the clubhouse looks has never looked better.

Scott Totman-- Scott has the final drawings for the boat dock and the cost will be about $32,000.00.  Materials will need to be paid for before they can order them. The project should start about the 15th of September.  Scott is ordering signs with the new regulations to be placed around the lake.

Glenn Oscarson-- Glenn states that he was thrilled with Stansbury Days and how nice the park looked.  He suggests making a good traffic plan for next year.

The golf course pond relining is running smoothly. 

Chris will put in one more application of aqua shade in the lake.

Board Member’s Reports and Requests:

Randy Jones-- Randy has looked at the 28 acre park grass that Tom Parker Construction re-seeded.  Some of it is coming in but there are still some bare patches.  The contractor would like us to sign off and issue the final payment by the end of September.  Randy's feeling is that we should not sign off yet and asks the other board members how they feel.   Everyone agreed that it would be best to wait until spring. 
Cindy comments that there are still some complaints coming in regarding the standing water problem.  Randy states that they are working on solving this problem.  There are 80 trees that are going to be replaced.  The new ones are bigger in diameter and will cost $55.00 in labor to replace each one.  Chris and his crew will be helping out and they will bill us for the ones that they replace.  The trees are coming the first week of October.

Randy would like everyone to start working on their budget requests and wants them by the first meeting in October.  He would like to have the tentative budget hearing the second meeting in October.

Rod Thompson-- The pond relining project is coming along great and the contractor is doing a really good job.  Both Brett Palmer and Chris have been there each day.

Stan Record--Stan reports that he has a list of trees and are with a friend getting approved for this area. 

Christy Achziger--Christy states that the pool season passes were down with the bad spring, however daily admissions were up and Donna saved some money in the employee line.  There should be a good deal of savings in the gas heating line due to the new boiler.  Stan states it should be about a 40% savings.  The clubhouse is doing great on the rentals.  Christy is getting the trustee plaque updated and it should be done for the next meeting.

Glenn Oscarson-- Glenn reports that Walt Holmes passed away last Friday .  Glenn delivered some flowers to his family.  There is a memorial service planned for 1:00 pm, October 1st, 2011 at Tate Mortuary

Chris has reorganized the shop and is now able to get all the equipment into the shop garage.  There were 2 radiant heaters installed which has made a huge difference.  Chris notes that there is a good hole in the roof and the garage was insulated last year.  Stan requests that Chris call the gas company to verify that the heaters have enough ventilation.

There has been a sound system installed in the upstairs big room of the clubhouse.

Mike Zimmerman is expected to finish the Gordon Well this week at the cost of $11,500.00 which will come out of Golf Course Pond Maintenance and Lake Maintenance.

Chris has ordered the 430D Grasshopper mower ($13,500.00), which should be here by the end of the year.

Chris has received bids on the purchase of a compressor.  They range from $13,000.00 to $25,000.00.  Century Equipment does have some used ones come in at the end of the year.  Stan asks Chris to check on the rental prices before making the final decision.  Randy states that we still have enough in the budget to purchase both the mower and compressor. 

The lake mower is in the process of being painted at the cost of $4,500.00 which comes out of next year's budget.

Stan comments that Chris is doing a good job of plowing the snow.

SPID has been using their new well to fill the ponds.  The ponds were completed however the head gates are leaking.  The contractor has been notified and will be out to make repairs.  Their work is warranted for 1 year from completion.

Chris states that the swimming pool is leaking more than ever this year.  The board asks Chris to check with Jeff Wanlass in the spring to see if he can do some repairs. 

There was some graffiti at the pavilion at the 28 Acre Park.  Security cameras have been ordered.

At the first of the year, Chris will be installing new countertops in the downstairs bathrooms at the clubhouse.

Board Member's Reports and Requests:

Stan Record-- Stan states that a building permit to build the Delgada fountain was never acquired by the first contractor and now another contractor has come in to build the block wall and electrical and cannot get a permit.  The county has an issue with it because of the it being constructed wrong and without a permit.  Randy states that the fountain still belongs to Leucadia.  Stan will follow up on this.

Christy Achziger--Christy states that she has really enjoyed being over the clubhouse and swimming pool and gives the new trustee that will be over them some basic information.  She states that we have an excellent staff at the pool now.  Kimberly will also contact the new trustee with any expenditures and needs for the clubhouse.  Christy comments that she has learned so much being on the board and is sad to be leaving. She also states that she has enjoyed working with the other members of the board and that it has been a privilege to work with them, that their hearts are in the right place and they always try to do what is best for the community.  Randy states that when Christy first came onto the board, they were struggling to get things done and it has been a nice transition and things have been running smoothly.  The other board members thank her for her service and wish her well in her future political endeavors.
