LAKE BEULAH MANAGEMENT DISTRICT http://www.LBMD.org Regular Meeting Minutes Wednesday, November 17, 2009 7:00 pm East Troy Town Hall Following publication, the Lake Beulah Management District held its regular meeting at the East Troy Town Hall on Wednesday, November 17, 2009 at 7:00 pm. Commissioners Present: Chairman David Bitter, Commissioners: Dave Skotarzak, Stan Alger, Richard Dow, Val Johnson, Doug Dorn and Rick Stacey Absent: None Also in Attendance: 8 Riparian Owners Lisa Sweet, Administrative Services Chairman Bitter called the meeting to order at 7:03 pm. Item #1: Approved the Meeting Minutes October 28, 2009 Regular Meeting There are two corrections to be made: Change RSV Engineering to RJN Environmental Services, LLC Commissioner Alger: Asked to change page 3 paragraph 6 from “suggested” to “was told” Supervisor Skotarzak made a motion to accept the minutes from October 28, 2009 with the two changes presented, Commissioner Alger seconded, and the motion passed unanimously. Item #2: Treasurer’s Report- Presented by Treasurer Dick Dow Treasurer Dow reported on the reports submitted on the Profit & Loss Budget vs. Actual for January through October 2009 and the Balance Sheet as of October 31, 2009. Treasurer Dow made a few comments regarding the budget. Regarding Water Quality Monitoring: Almost$10,000 DNR Grant money was paid to WI State Lab. Treasurer Dow thought this money was supposed to be paid to Lake Beulah. Treasurer Dow will hold the remaining money due until there is an explanation regarding the DNR grant money. Plant harvesting budget is down because the workers had a late start and wages are lower than expected. Treasurer Dow reminded the group of the upcoming annual $1600 contribution to Divine Word Seminary for storing the weed harvesting equipment at the seminary. Treasurer Dow reported that he has asked Citizens Bank of Mukwonago to transfer $50,000 from our Line of Credit to our money market account to cover expenses through February 2010. Treasurer Dow reported that a Certificate of Deposit of $36,000 came due on November 16, 2009. This money will be rolled over for 12 months and will come due again in fall of 2010. Commissioner Skotarzak made the motion to accept the Treasurer’s Report as reported by Treasurer Dick Dow. Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously. Item #3: Weed Harvest/Equipment Status Report and possibly take action on this matter: Commissioner Alger reported that the DNR responded to a few issues regarding weed controll. The DNR stated that a resident or weed cutter may cut a “pass through” path to access the lake. The weed harvester can cut weeds by Stringers Bridge and Goat Island. The weeds would have to be manually picked up since there is not a way for the harvester to pass under the bridges. Commissioner Alger made the following recommendations: Maintain the current cutter. The cost to maintain the current cutter would range from $1000 to $3000 depending on the condition of the hydraulic pump. The cutter bar on the current machine needs some work. Purchase a new cutter with the same size bar as the current cutter and apply for the DNR grant. The grant process starts with submitting a letter of intent which states the ability to purchase in January of 2010. LBMD would order the new machine in Spring of 2010 and the machine would be delivered in 2011. If the DNR approves the purchase, the grant would pay for 50% of the cost. There was discussion of possibly purchasing a cutter that can be attached to a boat to cut weeds in areas the big cutters could not fit (under the bridges). Commissioner Dow has a DVD which explains the process and will share it with the group. The approximate cost of the weed cutter attachment is $3000. The cost of purchasing a new 7 foot bar machine is approximately $100,000. Treasurer Dow reported that there is $132,883 in restricted CDs for the purchase of new equipment. Commissioner Alger made the motion to order the 7 foot weed harvester and apply for the DNR grant in January of 2010. Commissioner Dow seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously. After the motion was approved there was discussion. It is understood by the board that Commissioner Alger will oversee the maintenance of the cutters and take over as supervisor if need be. Commissioner Alger stated that Stan Alger will work part time in 2010 and will train Commissioner Alger and the new staff on equipment maintenance. Item #4 Septic Status Report/Boundary Issue Discussion and possibly take action on this matter. Chairman Bitter reported that out of 132 homes, 13 have not yet had their septic tanks pumped by the contracted Otto Jacobs. Chairman Bitter will follow up with those residents. The average cost is $129 per house every three years. *Action Item: Chairman Bitter will follow up with the houses that need their septic tanks pumped and will get the attorney involved if there is no response.* There was discussion regarding the properties in the district that do not have direct access to the lake. There was discussion regarding properties not within the management district which do have access to the lake. LBMD will review titles to determine if there is legal access. There were several comments made by riparian owners. The main concerns were higher taxes and weed cutting. Action Item: Chairman Bitter suggested the group research the ability to adjust the mill rate. The attorney will determine whether or not residents can be taxed differently depending on the services received. Commissioner Skotarzak made the motion for the group determine which properties have actual access and easements with the exception of residents on New Deal Drive, Goat Island and Beulah Park. Commissioner Alger seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously. Refer to the hand outs from October 28, 2009 which list properties not in the district. Commissioner Johnson suggested that the group determine if a sub-committee is needed for this process. The sub-committee would include both LBMD and non board members. The group agreed that this issue should be the next step. Commissioner Dow suggested to the group that the residents of New Deal Avenue should meet as a group and come to the LBMD board with one voice. Item #6 Commissioner/Public Comments: Chairman Bitter reported that there is nothing to report on the Status of Well #7 and therefore did not feel it necessary to invite the attorney to the meeting. There were several comments made by residents regarding boundary issues and weed harvesting. Resident, John Stoss (owner of Fred’s Tap) offered his land for pick up of harvested weeds in front of New Deal Drive. Commissioner Skotarzak made comments regarding the status of Well #7 and the Village of East Troy. Commissioner Skotarzak suggested a meeting between the Village of East Troy and the LBMD to discuss the reports and data. *Action Item: Chairman Bitter will follow up with Bob Nauta regarding this matter.* Commissioner Dow commented about the water quality of Lake Beulah and stated the concern of a hard water lake turning into soft water thus promoting algae and weed growth. Water quality will change over time as high capacity well pumping reduces the flow of groundwater through the aquifer. Our water quality monitoring program will detect this water hardness change. Chairman Bitter reported that he sent a letter to DeWitt and Ross for settlement payment. He included an incorrect amount. The group agreed that another letter should be sent with the correct amount. Item #7: Determine Date of Next Regular Meeting The group confirmed the next regular meeting will be on February 25, 2010 at 7:00 pm at the East Troy Town Hall. Adjourn Open Session to convene in Closed Session, pursuant to Wis. Stats 19.85 (1) (e) & (g) to confer with legal counsel. Chairperson Bitter moved to adjourn the regular meeting. Adjourn Open Session to convene in Closed Session, pursuant to Wis. Stats. 19.85(1) & (g) to allow District Commissioners to confer with legal counsel and deliberate regarding water well litigation strategy. Since there was no legal counsel representation at the meeting, there was no Closed Session. Commissioner Stacey made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner Skotarzak seconded and the meeting adjourned at 8:30 p.m Respectfully submitted, Lisa Sweet, Administrative Services

Item #1: Approved the Meeting Minutes September 1, 2009

Supervisor Alger made a motion to accept the minutes from September 1, 2009 as presented, Commissioner Dow seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

Item #2: Treasurer’s Report- Presented by Treasurer Dick Dow

Treasurer Dow reported on the reports submitted on the Profit & Loss Budget vs. Actual for January through September 2009 and the Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2009.

Treasurer Dow made a few comments regarding the budget.

The Professional Services account shows a higher amount because of the boundary agreement issues. The operating budget is down because of the late start of weed harvesting so the wages are less than what was budgeted. Treasurer Dow discussed the CD accounts which hold LBMD monies. The CDs are one year terms and are gaining 1.95% interest. The second principal payment on the current loan is due by the end of the year and is reflected in the Debt Services portion of the Balance Sheet. The Weed and Water Control budget is higher than anticipated due to the lack of grant money from the DNR.

Treasurer Dow requested the following two Resolutions

Resolution #1:

Lake Beulah Management District will borrow the funds necessary until the next Annual Meeting date in August 2010. On September 1, 2009, LBMD agreed to borrow $150,000 to be repaid over 10 years at 5% interest as approved by the electors at the 2009 LBMD Annual Meeting.

Commissioner Skotarzak made the motion to approve Resolution #1, Treasurer Dow seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.

Resolution #2

During the 2009 Annual Meeting, it was decided that $249,350 would be budgeted for the 2010 fiscal year. The tax levy for that time period is $243,378.

Commissioner Skotarzak made the motion to approve Resolution #2, Treasurer Dow seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.

Commissioner Stacey made the motion to accept the Treasurer’s Report as reported by Treasurer Dick Dow. Commissioner Alger seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.

Item #3: Discussion and Clarification of money to Kettle Moraine Land Trust for 2 years ($2500 each year) and possibly take action on the matter.

The board discussed what was approved during the Annual Meeting in August 2009. The board agreed that one payment of $2500 will be paid to KMLT in both 2009 and 2010.

Item #4 Discussions on Hiring Hydrologist vs. RSV Engineering and possibly take action on the matter.

Chairman Bitter announced that Robert Nauta is no longer employed by RSV Engineering. However, Mr. Nauta would like to continue working with LBMD on a consulting basis. Mr. Nauta is able to provide the same services working independently and carries liability insurance for his independent practice. Mr. Nauta charges $75 per hour which is less expensive than RSV Engineering. Mr. Nauta predicts he will work 12 to 16 hours per month analyzing data.

Action Item: Chairman Bitter will send a formal request to RSV Engineering for release of all records pertaining to Lake Beulah.

Commissioner Skotarzak made the motion to hire Robert Nauta of RJN Environmental Services, LLC in lieu of RSV Engineering. Commissioner Alger seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously.

Mr. Nauta presented LBMD with information regarding the Ground Water Management Committee in Madison which is provides assistance to lakes. The committee would like input from local lakes. Mr. Nauta feels State Representative, Scott Gunderson, would be very interested in Lake Beulah and suggested someone from the LBMD to be present at the next committee meeting on November 4, 2009 at 10:00am in room 201. Chairman Bitter made the commitment to attend the meeting. There is a copy of Mr. Nauta’s “Wisconsin Ground Water” update on file with the LBMD.

Action Item: Chairman Bitter made a request for Mr. Nauta to compose a formal proposal/response including details and graphs illustrating the current status of Lake Beulah. Mr. Nauta agreed to draft the response.

Item #5 Weed Harvest/Equipement Status Report and possibly take action on the matter:

Commissioner Alger recently had a meeting with a group from Lauderdale Lake. The following suggestions were made:

The Lauderdale Lakes group suggested repairing the current harvester and using it for a few more years. They also suggested hiring retired people to run the harvesting equipment.

Commissioner Alger presented several options for the group to consider and discuss:

Option #1: Use budgeted money to buy a smaller weed cutter to fit on the front of a boat and continue to maintain the current weed cutter.

Option #2: In addition to the current cutter, purchase another machine with a 7 or 8 foot cutter.

Option #3: Purchase a new larger machine- 10 foot bar.

Commissioner Alger was told the group should keep the following items in mind while considering the options: The large bar (10 foot) machines may be hard to maneuver. The smaller blades (7 to 8 feet) are easier to control in the wind and waves. There are always homeowner complaints regarding the weed harvesting or lack of. One transporter would be sufficient when running two weed harvesters.

Action Item: Commissioner Alger with talk with Brooke from the DNR regarding the Harvesting Permit and where weeds can be harvested on the lake- specifically New Deal Avenue, the channel by the Yacht Club, and Goat Island.

The grant for purchasing a new harvester needs to be applied for by May of 2010. The grant needs to be very specific and a statement of financial stability needs to be included.

Commissioner Alger would like group input on when the weed cutting should stop. He stated it is always a gray area.

Commissioner Dow stated that the harvester storage shed electricity and phone is normally placed on “vacation” status by mid October to reduce these costs during the winter months. However, the Supervisor has the option to continue working as he determines necessary.

Item #6 Septic Status Report/Boundary Issue Discussions and possibly take action on the matter:

Chairman Bitter reported the septic pumping is almost finished. Chairman Bitter asked Commissioner Stacey to present a report at the next meeting regarding the county’s position on septic pumping. There was discussion regarding Fred’s Tap and whether it has a holding tank or a septic tank. Commissioner Stacey will talk to Walworth County regarding this matter.

Chairman Bitter provided handouts with addresses of potential LBMD members. Chairman Bitter would like to adopt a clear definition on what it means to be part of the LBMD.

Joe Klarkowski, Town of East Troy Board Member, asked several questions about the definition of the district and reported on a few discussions he has had with residents regarding this matter. Mr. Klarkowski also asked for a definition of the LBMD and questioned the value or benefit.

Item #7 Status Report of Well #7 and possible take action on this matter:

Mr. Nauta reported that John Janson, Village of East Troy Consultant, moved to Florida and there is a new person reviewing the data downloads. Mr. Nauta met with Mr. Janson’s replacement. Chairman Bitter will follow up with Attorney Laing regarding the legal proceedings.

Item #8 Commissioner/Public Comments:

Commissioner Dow stated that he is concerned about the high fees and over-billing from the WI. State Laboratory of Hygiene. This lab must be used for the analyses of quarterly lake water samples collected by USGS as required under the DNR Water Quality Monitoring Grant LPL1231-08. The lab has billed LBMD $347 for services through September despite having received $9,628 from the DNR Grant for services from April 2008 through December 2009. The Board agreed that Commissioner Dow should withhold payment of the invoice and write a letter to the lab requesting an explanation for this over billing. He has also requested that Mr. Nauta and USGS recommend another lab for all future water sample analysis.
