AUGUST 5, 2016 THE FRIDAY FLYER A-3 Wide range of topics covered at Board Meeting
BY SHARON RICE
EDITOR, THE FRIDAY FLYER
Several interesting subjects came up at Tuesday’s Regular Session Board Meeting. When officials were invited to address the Board early in the meeting, Nancy Horton, Canyon Lake’s represen- tative on the EVMWD Board of Direc- tors, explained that the water district’s water treatment plant will soon begin taking water out of the lake for treat- ment. The plant has been down nine months for renovations. Historically, the plant has taken up to 5 million gallons or more per day for treatment.
Nancy also commented on the need for Lake Elsinore to close its lake to recreational use this week due to a blue-green algae bloom. Testing has been done in Canyon Lake and, so far, the water quality has remained good. Residents who notice algae forming are asked to contact the POA immediately.
• The first order of business in the meeting was to acknowledge receipt of the annual audit from the auditing firm of Lund & Guttry. Two representatives of the firm were on hand to announce that the audit showed the POA’s books are extremely clean and that the Ac- counting Department has done an ex- cellent job. It also was announced that POA Controller Bryan Knechtel has just recently left Canyon Lake for another accounting position.
• Moving into the Business Action Items portion of the agenda, Member Services Manager Susanne Webb an- nounced a 30-day reading for a new Artificial Turf Policy. (See adjacent ar- ticle.)
• The Board approved reinstating the Rules & Regulations Committee as a standing committee, appointing Thomas Nathan, Stacy Queen, Brenda Yanoschik and Kathy Mulcahy to that committee.
• Directors also approved the charter and several members for a new Secu- rity Advisory Committee. The primary responsibility of the Security Advisory Committee is to advise the Board of Di- rectors and recommend changes with regard to members concerns, security procedures, security processes, enforce- ment issue and comments regarding the Community Patrol and Marine Patrol operation.
Appointed to the Security Advisory Committee, out of 11 applicants, were Bryan Burchett, Leigh Clark, Damon Smith, Orlando Lopez and Steven Us- ary, with Tammy Stone serving as an alternative.
