TREASURER’S REPORT – Don Peterson presented the treasures report for July.  The report was reviewed by the board members.   Motion by Baird, 2nd by Peplinski to approve the July report.  Motion passed unanimously.   The check sequence ending July 21 was check #3679 and beginning August 1 check #3680.       
OLD BUSINESS –
Cascade Project   Ted reported on attending the Pine Shadows HOA meeting.  He talked to the association about SBHW being extended down Cascade road and to the Pine Shadows area.  The association was very much in favor of having rural water in their area.  Further talks must be taken with Pine Shadows and other possible users along Cascade road to determine the number of users that would hook up to the SBHW line.  Also talks would have to be taken with Hot Springs to work out a route for SBHW to extend their water line to Cascade road.  Cost estimates and map were reviewed.
Mountain Meadows   Don reported on Mountain Meadows which is near Rushmore Ranch.  After discussion Baird made a motion that new users in the mountain Meadows housing subdivision would be charged $8k hookup fee plus all construction costs.  2nd by Seaboldt.  Motion passed unanimously.
Managers’ Report   Don Peterson reported on a water leak in the Lone Elk Peak subdivision and that it has been repaired.
Don Peterson reported back to the board on the electricity costs at the water treatment plant.  The electricity usage is due to the wiring of the building and will remain at its current usage rates.
Don Peterson reported that a water customer at Paramount Point was seeking a reduction in rates for a 2nd tap on his property.  The customer is the owner of two lots with two water taps.  The customer is currently combining the two lots into one on the Plat Map.  After discussion, it was determined that providing a reduction to $40 a month for the 2nd tap would be better than having the tap shut off.  A motion by Kraus, 2nd by DeFries to allow the reduction to $40 once the owner has obtained the plat paperwork.  Motion passed unanimously.
Don Peterson informed the board that the Paramount Point/ Spring Creek project is moving forward. There is continued discussion on the location of a tank site and the associated costs with a couple of options.
Don Peterson informed the Board of the new Gold Rush subdivision and discussed the options to bring water to the subdivision.  Don addressed the responsible party to pay for the line extension and do the construction and who would inspect the lines to insure proper installation.  A motion by Baird, 2nd by Seaboldt to have Don Peterson pursue bringing water to the subdivision.  Motion passed unanimously.
Don Peterson informed the Board that the Forest Service has asked for public comments on the Casey well.
