RE: Membership Meeting 7 p.m. Wednesday, August 31, 2016 at Moose, 7371 Marine Rd
Dear Dunlap Lake Property Owners,
Following the membership meeting on June 22, Board members met with city administration to report the results and get their advice. Results of that meeting were reported back to the full Board and a decision was made to do additional investigation and analysis in an effort to craft a plan that would build a greater consensus among the membership.
In that effort, we conducted a survey to try to better understand what members thought about the proposed dredging and financing plans. The opinions expressed in that survey led us to further examine the proposed plans and seek alternatives.
There will be an informational meeting of the membership on Wednesday, August 31 to present those results. We will be presenting alternative dredging plans, financing plans, and assessment structures and we will be seeking membership input on all three. Member input at that meeting will help shape the question that will be put to the full membership for a vote during the month of September.
As many people who responded to the survey advocated for a written ballot sent to the full membership, that’s what we will do. Those ballots will be mailed following the August 31 meeting.
You are urged to attend the meeting and give your input. The vast majority of survey respondents (86%) agreed with the need to dredge. We need to find a way that we can come together to save Dunlap Lake.
Sincerely,
Alan Ortbals
President
