On Wednesday, February 18, 2015, the Dunlap Lake Property Owners Association held it’s annual meeting at the Moose Lodge. Alan Ortbals, president, welcomed everyone and introduced the board. Bart Solon, treasurer, went through the past year’s financials.
It was announced that on February 17, the night before the meeting, the Edwardsville City Council voted unanimously to sell 840 East Lake Drive to DLPOA for $346,500. An aerial photo of the property was displayed and the group discussed the property’s potential as a silt depository. Preliminary engineering studies show it may hold most of the silt from the south end. More information will be collected in the upcoming year so there can be an informed conversation about the options for dredging at next year’s annual meeting.
Bart and Alan went through the anticipated sources and uses of funds for FY 2015-16. A budget sheet for the FY 2015 was put together and mailed out to all residents following the meeting. The board will vote on the proposed budget on March 30, 2015 during their regular last Monday of the month board meeting at 7 pm at the Fogle House, 840 East Lake Drive.
Five board members were reelected to new, three-year terms. They are Larry Ahrens, Mark Hicks, Andy Leek, Craig Louer and Roy Wehling.
