5. Road & Building Commissioner’s Report presented by Mike Edwards.

9039 Kathleen’s web meeting was scheduled for Nov. 3 at 7 pm.  The property                        owner’s representative made no appeal on dispute and said they will make                              corrections in 30 days.  They have begun repair on the front of the property.  IF we                need access,  police would assist and escort a Trustee into the premises.  The                         property may request for more time to fix issues.

Received a call from a homeowner on Autumn.  There was some sort of pipe                           collapse which will be the owner’s responsibility.  There is a flag in the yard and                      Cones are marking the spot for safety. The occupancy permit passed.

Rosemary sewer later pothole issue has been addressed by one homeowner but the               other homeowner has not addressed.  A 30-day notice needs to be issued.

There is an approved contractor list for the Sewer Lateral program. 

The fence between Wilbur Park and Dominoes has fallen.  Dan will assist by                            contacting Problem Properties to get the fence repaired.

8.  Chairman’s Report presented by Neal Vohsen.

             Apparently, someone took the road sign at Philo and Weber.  It has been returned                 and we need to have Fast Signs check to see if it is properly secured.
