herself and her husband to perform this task. Mr. Anderson volunteered to shop for the required materials.

would be emailed to board members for further review and comment.

Input for "Eyesore" Enforcement - There was discussion of the possiblilty of developing a "letter of courtesy" from the board to be sent to residents whose property appears to be unkempt.

There will be follow-up on this subject at the next meeting.

NEW BUSINESS:

Towing/Warning by A+ - Mrs. Zaremba reported on a complaint from a resident whose vehicle was tagged with a warning notice for parking at the boat ramp without displaying a parking permit. The resident believed he was being unfairly targeted. The board discussed ways to improve implementation of the permit policy. Mr. Anderson will draft a letter to the towing company to remind them of their agreement: for the first offense, a warning notice will be put on the vehicle and note made of the license number. Towing will result only after a second offense. Mr. Anderson also recommended that a sign be posted at the boat ramp that parking is by permit only and that the permit must be displayed. The board approved a motion to spend up to $50. for said sign.

Osprey Platform - Pat McKnett proposed the construction of an Osprey platform. She noted that this idea was originally suggested by Randy DaCamara. Mrs. McKnett researched the possible need for a permit. After checking with various government agencies, an employee of the Battlecreek Cyprus Swamp told her that a permit is not required. They suggested that the platform be put at the end of a jetty, in or near the water. Mr. DaCamara said there is a post out in the water near his house which may serve the purpose. All it needs is a platform. The board voted to approve purchasing the materials to build a platform. It was noted that the Eagle Scouts are eager to work on projects such as this. Mrs. McKnett will follow up.

Newsletter suggestions - Mr. Anderson suggested that the letter include a "thank you" to the landscaper of the area around the Calvert Beach/Long Beach sign and to Green Thumbs lawn care for mowing at the boat ramp.

OTHER BUSINESS: None.

NEXT MEETING; The next board meeting will be on November 16, 2009 at 7:00 PM at the Long Beach Community Center.
