The USFS Permit was filed in 8/17/12 by RH2, but our contact person at the USFS (Amelia) is out of the office until September 10th so we don’t know if much will be started on it before then. In addition, the Federal Government year-end is 9/30/12, so there is a chance it won’t be started until after 10/1/12.

 Mountain Park: Charlie presented his options for immediate improvements to the Mountain Park well house and source.  Insulating one main pipe should be dealt with before winter, and the pressure needs to be reduced as it’s currently exceeding the amount allowed on the pressure tanks.  Charlie and Lan will get together to put a bead of silicone/caulk around the cover to the well head to create a sanitary seal for the time being.

Commissioner Klasell motioned to have Charlie install a 2” meter from Whispering Pines storage at the well head, motion passed.

Discussion ensued as to how to proceed with regards to system improvements to Mountain Park. Based on the opinion of our attorney, Mark Peterson, we feel Mountain Park will remain a Class B system as there are only 13 parcels involved in the LID and we are going to do the improvements outlined in the comp plan – improve well house, well head and install mainline pipe/meters as part of Phase I, and they will be connected to the entire system in Phase II.  Commissioner Klasell will contact Karen K at RH2 about getting a scope of work for surveying and have Fitzpatrick submit an additional survey contract for approval.

Homestead Well: To try and avoid confusion, we are now calling the new well drilled on Karen Dickinson’s property the Homestead Well.  The 24 hour well test has been scheduled for Sept 11th & 12th.

Karen D. was presented the design for the 20×20 well house that Karen K. designed, and she is not willing to accept a building that large.  She will contact Karen K. directly to see what can be done to make the building smaller and meet her requirements in the MOU of a 12×12 building.

Insurance

 Dwight Burke emailed that he has received our renewal packet and Karen D had also received/forwarded to commissioners for review; Commissioner Harris was concerned that he didn’t see coverage for board members on acts prior to Aug 1, 2012 included.  In addition, we would like to see what payment plans are available to avoid using our limited funds. Commissioner Klasell will contact Dwight and hopefully will have answers to these questions at the next meeting.

Easements

The easement to allow access to the upper area through lots 3 and 4 has been given to lot 3.  They still are having some difficulties getting it notarized, but Commissioner Harris has told them to sign at their convenience as we won’t need until next spring.

Other Business

One customer has contacted the district; he requires a water availability certificate for his lot.  Commissioner Klasell was authorized to prepare, sign, and send him a form.  Another customer with two lots but with only one drawing water asked if the second lot has to pay the base fee; customer will be advised that base fee is per connection and he is responsible for both connections.  It is the LID cost that will be applied based on parcel number (lot).  Also, a forest service parcel has asked when the final assessments will be determined and when they’ll need to decide to pay in full or make monthly payments; customer will be advised that will be determined at the end of construction.

Commissioner Harris opened the meeting at 10 am and acknowledged a quorum existed.

Dan Bannier from Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC) presented  a Powerpoint presentation discussing how water rates are determined.  The meat of the presentation is that first a budget is proposed and accepted by the Commissioners then from that the rates are set such that the district will have enough funds to pay the bills plus have a reserve amount which is required by the State.  The $39.00 base rate is a little on the low side but the Commissioners felt that we should start there which will pay the bills and maintain the reserve.  The average base rate for most districts is around $50.00.

The floor was then opened to the public for any questions they may have.  There were a few questions that were answered by either the commissioners, Mark Peterson (our Lawyer) or Dan Bannier.

One of the questions asked was if the district had to have a public meeting before raising rates.  Mark and Dan both answered that there is no requirement to do so but the Commissioners said that would probably would have a public meeting as a courtesy.

Startup Process

The commissioners reviewed the final transfer resolution.  There was one change designating Jim Ratley as Treasurer of WPWUA instead of Secretary/Treasurer.

The commissioners reviewed the Association easements and water right transfer documents. At the time of the meeting there is some doubt whether Lester Additions has a water right.  They have a water certificate.  Mark Peterson will do more work on the issue before the next meeting.  He will be able to attend the July 26, 2012 meeting for the signing of transfer documents.

Commissioner noted that the insurance negotiations are done.  We are waiting for our renewal.

There was much discussion with Mark Peterson regarding what the individual associations should do with regards to shutting down their operation.  Mark felt that rather than completely shut down to moth ball operation by continuing to pay the $10.00 license fee to the State.  Because of the insurance issue, he felt no more decisions should be made and the board for each association should disband.

Quickwater software: Commissioner Klasell pointed out that it has not arrived.  Clerk Kinney will contact them and get it resolved.

Franchise Agreement

Mark Peterson felt that the commissioners should send the Franchise Agreement back to the county with the comments that our engineer has made regarding it.

Other Business

Jim Ratley pointed out that the $25.00 late fee that was stated in the letter to all district customers should be re-worded as a service charge for the notification and leg work that results in a non-payment or late payment rather than a penalty for non-payment.  There was much discussion be the commissioners agreed on Jim Ratley’s concerns.  Mark Peterson pointed out the county’s procedure when there is non-payment.  The county will foreclose on the property after there is a lien on the property for non-payment.

The letter from our engineer Karen Kornher increasing the engineering cost estimate.  Dan Bannier will review the proposal and talk to her to discuss it.  It was pointed out that our funding was based on the engineering proposal and to increase it at this stage is not good.  More work will be done on this issue.

Lake Wenatchee Water District

                                                           Commissioners Meeting

                                                                     July 5, 2012

                                                            at Station 9 Fire House

Commissioners Present: President-Bruce Harris, Bonnie Klasell, Secretary-Landis Bohn

Starr Present: Clerk-Karen Dickinson, Clerk Trainee-Elaine Kinney

Guests Present: Cleve Borth, Barbara Harris, Dwight Burke

Commissioner Harris opened the meeting at 10 am and acknowledged a quorum existed

Commissioners approved the minutes from 06/28/12 with one typo fix needed

Administrative and Vouchers

The commissioners discussed where to move the Whispering Pines Water Association mailbox after the transfer.  It was decided to move it to Clerk-Elaine’s mailbox area because that is kept clean of snow.  Commissioner Harris instructed Elaine to go ahead right now and acquire a new address for the district and when the time is right all mailings will be changed to that address.

Clerk Dickinson told the commissioners that they are entitled to one hundred and four dollars per meeting.

She then passed out I-9 forms which need to be filled out and had them sign their pay vouchers for last month.  From now on the commissioners will get this amount for every meeting attended.  There were no other vouchers to approve.

It was pointed out that as the bills come in they are faxed to the commissioners one at a time for their review then the voucher is filled out with all the approved invoices to be signed.

District Insurance

 Dwight Burke has been negotiating with Cities Insurance Association of Washington (CIAW) to obtain our District insurance.  He was able to negotiate the following:

  1. A premium of three thousand dollars per year.  They refused the twenty five hundred the district proposed.
  2. A ten million dollar general liability coverage compared to the one million CIAW first proposed.
  3. The insurance would go in affect as of Sept 1, 2012.  Dwight asked how they would cover the transfer date of Aug. 1, 2012.  They said that they would endorse the additional property value as of August 1, 2012 but not charge us for that month.
  4. The coverage is on the total property value of four hundred and fifty thousand dollars.  They said they would be with 10% of that figure.
  5. They also agreed to cover prior acts for those three associations that have insurance coverage. (LWWD, WPWUA, Brown Road Assoc.)
  6. Director and Officer Coverage (D&O) for the board would be on a claims made basis. After the transfers are done, the associations can cancel their D&O coverage.  It will now be covered by the Districts D&O coverage.

There was some discussion about covering the boards that will remain in effect for three years as recommended by Mark Peterson. This is in case the District should fail for some reason, the individual associations could start up again and not start from scratch. All three associations agreed to keep their current D&O coverage until the corporations are dissolved and the boards are no more or until we find out more options.

Commissioner Klasell moved, Commissioner Harris seconded, and it passed unanimously, to have Dwight continue talking to the insurance company and attorney, Mark Peterson about coverage issues and how to proceed with the individual boards that will remain active.

Commissioner Klasell moved that we accept the $3000 premium, Commissioner Bohn seconded, and it passed unanimously.

There was discussion about submitting a letter of intent to withdraw 12 months in advance.  Dwight pointed out that for a business aspect, it would be better to submit the letter but since they have worked with us and have a long memory, maybe it would be better not to.  Commissioner Harris felt that it would be better to wait a year and make that decision next Sept.

Dwight felt that on a go forward basis we have a commissioner as the contact person with CIAW.

It was agreed to have Commissioner Bohn be the contact commissioner.  Dwight proposed to write a letter making Commissioner Bohn the contact person.

Commissioner Harris moved that Commissioner Bohn be made the contact person for CIAW, Commissioner Klasell seconded, it passed unanimously.

 

Status of Wells

District Well: Commissioner Harris said they made an offer to Jeff Burgess for the District to take over their well as a replacement well for WPWUA. The offer was turned down.

It is the only pill which is manufactured according to soft nature of women. levitra wholesale This makes it very hard to cure discount cialis erectile dysfunction. It demotes cialis tablets india the inhibitory enzyme of type 5 dwelling in the male penis. There was a lot of discussion on where to place the well.  It was pointed out that we need over 40 gals/minute. There were several areas talked about.  Clerk, Dickinson wanted to throw her land in the mix as possibly giving up part of her land for compensation if water is found.  Cleve Borth said that it is possible to drill another well 200 feet from LWWD current well.  It is not known if this is a good location to drill another well. It was decided to have Charlie Cruikshank witch Karen’s property.

Mountain Park Well: It was decided to have two local dousers look for water in the areas discussed.  It was decided to have two dousers witch the areas discussed. (Joe Woods and Charlie Cruickshank).

 

Start up Process

LWWA: Cleve Borth wanted clarification that the signing of the documents would be July 26.  The players both verbally agreed with the transfer agreement. Both Bob West and Byron Dickinson gave verbal approval for the transfer agreement, however, Byron want the agreement amended to say that the free water usage will be transferred to his heirs for as long as one of them retains the property  That amendment was given to Byron today for his approval.  The agreement will be signed prior to the July 26, 2012 deadline.

Letter announcing District Start rates which will be sent to the members of the District.  Dan Bannier said the letter looked good but to add the Commissioners names and contact information to it. After a very lengthy discussion regarding how to handle late fees, turning off water, etc., it was decided to leave the letter and rates as written but add “base rate for residential service” after the thirty nine dollars and add “per billing cycle” after the late fee.  These rates can be changed at a later date if it found that the budget is not substantial.

Commissioner Bohn motioned to accept the letter as written, Commissioner Klasell seconded, all approved.

Commissioner Klaell submitted the proposed budget for 2012-2013.   Commissioner Klasell moved to accept the budget, Commissioner Harris seconded, all approved.

Planning for the July 19th meeting:  It was decided to devote most of the time to Dan Bannier and what he has to present.

 Resolutions

The commissioners signed the Contract Operator resolution.

Commissioner Klasell will bring the resolution to the July 12, 2012 meeting to accept the budget along with the other resolutions that need to be discussed and signed.

Easement Status

 Whispering Pines Lots 3, 4 & 5:  Commissioner Harris submitted a map from the engineers showing where the easement will go to access the upper reservoir. This will require cutting down some trees and flattening the ground. This is based on Forest Service (FD) approval to use their land.

Also we will need permission to use the paved driveways to access the upper road to the reservoir.

A discussion was held about obtaining permission to cross Hashim’s land with the pipes. Further work will be done on this.  Whether Hashim owns the small strip will be verified for further planning.

Tice/Schilling easement to put in the pipe:  Commissioner Harris has been trying to contact David Tice to obtain an easement or permission to use a thin strip of his property to place dirt and move equipment.  Whispering Pines already has a 10 foot strip on Shilling’s property but we will need additional space to place dirt and move equipment.   At the time of the meeting, he had not heard back regarding his latest email to him.

North Shore/Lester Addition:  The easement is up in the air at this point and is Karen Korhner’s design changes.

Franchise Agreement

Commissioner Harris said that we did get the Franchise agreement from Chelan County.

 

Survey Status

There was very little success in locating the metal pipes with a metal detector.  As a result of this, we will need a local person when we begin digging.  So when the survey is done we will proceed.

 

Task Assignment

Commissioner Klasell will mail out the startup letter.

Commissioner Bohn will coordinate the witching tasks.  Commissioner Harris will contact the Geologists to give up a better idea where the water may be found.

 

Meeting was adjourned at 1:00 pm.

Budget Process

 Clerk will communicate with RH2 to determine proper budget categories for expenses not originating with RH2 and therefore not already categorized by them.

Start Up Process

(Accounting Program)

Jim Ratley spoke with the folks at Quick Water about whether to upgrade or to get a new program. Options are:

  1. Don’t buy Quick Water at all, but stay with Quick Books instead.
  2. Use the “Rural” Quick Water program currently owned by WPWU, and pay $400 in training and $650 in upgrades, for a total of $1050.
  3. Use the “Q5” Quick Water program which would cost $3000.

There was much discussion of costs and benefits of each. Finally C. Bohn motioned to upgrade the existing “Rural” program. C. Harris 2nd. Passed unanimously.

(Rate Setting)

There was much discussion on how to meet the O&M budget. There is a proposal to go with a flat rate for those who do not have meters, and a lower flat rate, plus water usage fees, for those that do. The WPWU MOU says to use the meters for billing, but it would much cheaper and simpler for the District to use a flat rate for the interim period during construction. However, the Commissioners are concerned about the difficulty of amending the MOU. C. Harris says they will go to the WPWU board and see if they will accept a flat rate for the interim period. Dan Bannier points out the WPWU aren’t using their water at high enough rates to trigger water usage fees anyway.

Based on the budget established by the Board, C. Harris makes a motion to adopt a flat rate of $39./mo, effective  August 1st, for all LWWD customers. Bohn 2nd. Unanimously passed. Dan Bannier will draft a resolution to this effect  for Commissioners to sign at their next meeting.

(Operator Contract)

Commissioners signed the contract with Cruickshank Consulting LLC. Clerk will scan and email copies to all parties including Dan Bannier so he can draft a resolution accepting the contract.

(Operating Procedures)

C. Klasell and Jim Ratley have drafted some procedures for the new District. (If adopted, these procedures should go up on the web site with hard copy in the District office files.) C. Harris asks everyone to please review and comment. Copies have been email to all Commissioners and consultants.

Wells

(Burgess)

C. Bohn said he spoke with Jeff Burgess and was told Burgess wanted to wait for his partner Jill to return from vacation before re-opening talks about the Burges well. Jill is expected back in a few days.

(Mt. Park)

C. Harris walked the potential well sites with Jim George and came up with 3 possibilities. C. Harris passed out maps. There was much discussion of the pros and cons of various options. Sharon George says the Georges would donate site #3 as it is already a non-buildable lot.

C. Harris asked Dan Bannier what would happen if the District failed to find a water source for the Mt. Park area and was therefore unable to meet all the requirements of the Comp Plan. Dan said he would check with Tom at WA State Public works, the source of our DWSRF loan/grant package. Dan will ask Tom if it’s possible for us to defer Mt Park to Stage 2, when we might run a line down N Shore Dr.

If Tom says we must do something about Mt Park now, then C. Harris will review well drilling options with an RH2 engineer.

Easements

(BRWU)

Irene Miller, president of BRWU suggested BRWU be compensated for allowing LWWD to share an easement  at the same rate the LWWD is compensating other land owners for easements.  Commissioner Harris suggested LWWD could compenstate BRWU by putting new pipe in the ditch. Irene Miller said she would take that offer back to her board.

Also, C. Klasell reminded the group that LWWD and Irene Miller need to sign the addendum to the BRWU MOU taking out the Burgess lots and returning the irrigation reservoir, pipes and easements to BRWU. C. Harris and Irene Miller signed, C. Klasell abstained as she is on the BRWU board, and C. Bohn postponed signing until there was an answer back from BRWU as to whether or not they will share the easement in return for new pipe.

(WPWU)

Harris says the Shilling/Tice easement is waiting on the survey. C. Klasell spoke with John Hashim who wishes to see the actual survey tape before he signs off on anything, but is basically in agreement.

(Lester Addition)

Cleve Borth spoke with Schultze. C. Harris spoke with Bob West. Much discussion of working out easements followed. Cleve Borth will walk the line with Schultze this weekend and try to come up with a deal.

Clerk Replacement

C. Klasell proposed:   Change the official mailing address for LWWD to the WPWU mail box and leave it there no matter where the “office” might go. Then investigate having Gaye (clerk for Alpine Water) do payables and reporting, but break out meter reading, billing, and minutes to a local person, possibly Elaine who lives in WP. This local person would take physical possession of the computer, files and phone. Other details might be C. Kasell taking over web site and Bacon Davis wage interviews.

There was much discussion of how all these duties might be best handled.

 

President Harris motioned to extend the meeting to discuss clerk staffing, survey results and small works roster. There was some uncertainty as to the best time and place to reconvene, so C. Harris and C. Klasell will communicate, decide on time and place, and then let everyone know…. probably Sunday morning at the Harris’s.

There was discussion of holding official commissioners meetings weekly, at the Fire Station, until this critical busy period slows down.

President Harris suspended the meeting at 2:00pm, to be resumed 6/28/12 @ 10am
