VIII. MEMBERS TO BE HEARD:
David Gray: Requests the Board to provide a quarterly report, like a spreadsheet form, that
shows lots you are dealing with such as Lot, Section, Block, who those lots are given to like
an investor, when those lots are sold, how much money we are getting off those lots. I
would like those lots done at least quarterly.
Second thing, request that the Board look at starting a paving and maintenance fund. One
way to pay for that is to have a sticker for every car @ $100 and $50 ATV; that way we can
collect money and start paving roads.
Joe Bledsoe: Re the budget, how much has payroll increased since 2016?
Jack Miller: Cart fee-was not fair for two members of the board to start action. The fee was
initially started by MGA to help DD with golf course. Too many rumors are floating around.

playground equipment. Next event is February 15, our annual awards dinner.
John Faulk-Board has done a great job. We have not had an annual meeting of the members
since 2009.
Ken Kunz: Passed out information re telephones. Home phone replacement boxes are
$29.99 and use their services @ $20 per month for two (2) years plus tax. We could save
money.
