Sewer Line Repairs:
PM in process of getting bids on repairing offset joints on sewer lines.  Bids are being obtained from Gelco to do a trenchless in line repair with robots and grouting; and from a local excavator to do an excavation repair.  PM doubts that the major offsets can be repaired by grouting and will probably require excavation to repair.

Agenda For Annual Meeting: Kosydar advised Board the agenda for annual meeting called for a report from the Compliance Officer.  Since River Meadows does not currently have a compliance officer, Kosydar will give a report on compliance.
