Treasurer’s
Report:
Rob Webb reported that the current balance of the LID is $29,313. Approximately $24,000 from
the County assessments will be received shortly; Professional Lake Management has submitted a partial bill for herbicide treatment.
Non Native Weed Control:
Curly-Leaf Pondweed
PML treated 19.68
acres infested with curly leaf and 8 plus acres of combination of curly leaf and
milfoil on May 12th. Early reports indicate the herbicide treatment was very effective.
Eurasian
Milfoil
The permit application for treatment of 95 infested acres of milfoil was submitted on April 8th,
and
treatment was originally scheduled for May 25th. However, the permit from the DNR was not
granted
until June 9th and only 79.75 treatable acres were allowed. Herbicide treatment is scheduled
for June 21st,
pending favorable weather conditions.
It was noted that
the Board will apply for an additional 18-19 treatable acreage, thus leaving 7 or 8 acres
for
individual treatment, since the permit does not allow treatment within 150 feet from shoreline.
Reports from PLM
surveys reveal there is a total of 267 infested milfoil acres on Lake Alexander.
Annual General Meeting:
The date for the Annual 2010 General meeting was set for Saturday, July 17th, at approximately 10:30 A.M.
This will follow the Lake Alexander Property Owners Association Annual Meeting .
Budget
A proposal was made to present two budgets to the membership; one allowing for treatment of the 15% of
littoral acreage (127 acres); the second one to treat 20% of the littoral acreage (160 acres).
A
motion was made by Rick, seconded by Gordy, to delegate Dr. Bill to contact Wendy Crowell and other
DNR
officials as to gaining information and the probability of obtaining a variance for treating additional
acreage. Motion carried.

Dr. Bill Faber, Rob Webb,
Gordy Schenian, Ron Wieber, and Carmen Wells are candidates for election
