Briarwood Action Association board approves dam riprap work, records fish-purchase motion and authorizes road help
Summary
At its Feb. 10, 2025 meeting the Briarwood Action Association approved hiring a contractor to rock about 300 feet of a dam, recorded a motion to spend $4,000 on fish for neighborhood lakes, authorized volunteer assistance for plowing and salting, and noted a resident request to improve boil-water notices.
The Briarwood Action Association met on Feb. 10, 2025; the board recorded multiple maintenance and operations decisions and logged a resident request for better boil-water notifications.
The board approved hiring a contractor, identified as Pinsen in the minutes, to rock roughly 300 feet of a neighborhood dam with Gabion Rip Rap rock after John Steel moved for the expenditure. The motion was recorded and accepted by the board, with Josh Brower and Jim Camden recorded as supporting the motion in the minutes.
At the meeting John Steel also moved to spend $4,000 to buy fish for the association’s lakes; Joe Poffel seconded. The minutes record the motion and second but do not specify a vote tally or whether the board formally adopted the purchase during the session. Board members also discussed beach sand — whether to drag sand out of the lake or add more — and left that matter for further consideration.
Security and roads were on the agenda. The board recorded a security plan calling for Jim Camden to provide coverage from Memorial Day weekend through September at 40 hours per week. On roads, the minutes state the salt truck needs an agitator replaced by Cadwell; John Steel moved to authorize Jim Camden and Joe Poffel to assist Rob with plowing and salting, a motion the minutes show was accepted with Kyle Bone recorded as the second.
The board briefly addressed park and entrance maintenance after noting a plow truck struck the entrance island. The minutes show the board went into a closed session to discuss legal matters, lot issues and back dues; the meeting returned to open session with no public details recorded about closed-session outcomes.
A personnel note in new business records that Joe Poffel “was voted in as a board member” on Jan. 13, 2025 (as entered in the minutes). The meeting adjourned at 7:48 p.m.; the motion to adjourn was made by Josh Brower and seconded by Greg Davis.
The minutes logged one pre-meeting resident comment: Jeff Capps asked the board for a better way to publicize boil-water notices, recommending saw-horse signs at the community entrances and a back gate. The minutes do not record a formal response to that request during the meeting.
Next steps recorded in the minutes are limited to seeking bids for dam brush cutting and further discussion about beach sand; the minutes do not provide deadlines or implementation assignments for those items.
