this is 265 mon ponit so that's one across the street from the Old Orchard you know uh peach tree orchard um we'll want to move that to the next meeting um all the plans are in they've all been reviewed I'm comfortable with ratifying it but I want to give my board ample time to know the two variances that are on this plan they needed to do Thorndike need to do a butter notifications so that if the Public's interested in it so it gives you the opportunity to ask me any questions about the plan or about the variances them do their abut notifications we'll go for a vote next meeting but it was on the agenda just so that we're being as obvious as possible okay on the project okay so we can yeah I'll probably come in and spend some time to go over the variances that have been requested not a problem happy to help all right so we'll just leave that yep okay so we'll move on to discussion items um number one mosquito Eastern equin and sephtis and West virus update on that so um today the state it didn't affect Halifax because we're already there but they dropped the highrisk factor throughout the whole state um yes temperatures are dropping yes populations are coming down um it doesn't mean that there AR still mosquitoes out there but at least they the levels are um getting more acceptable really not that it will kill each and every one of them but once we get the first hard Frost which is 32° for at least 2 hours um then you've really gone past mosquito season but until that point I still urge the general public to be careful when you're in areas that you're experiencing mosquitoes with personal protective Equipment Deep whatever um you know you can use sure okay thank you not a problem okay we can move on to affirming um bills paid um can I get a motion to affirm the bills paid um for payroll for the week ending September 21st 2024 for Robert Valerie Margaret Selter Patricia Sanda Brian cing Robert B buer and Cindy Metro a second motion all in favor I I um affirm

the water quality samples that um Anna want pays for to in Lakes you know so y two separate accounts one's revolving so they pay in we pay out they pay in we pay out and so and we only do that testing so we're not testing anymore is it so what we we're done with the testing goes from Memorial Day till Labor Day yep but we have four Covenant cases in town which are septic systems right on top of the pond that haven't been repaired but they're barely used so I'll be going out next week to do water quality tests on their properties but they pay for it okay and they have to have a title 5 inspection okay so they get a Title Five and they get a a sample and if it fails then they get a new septic system right if it doesn't well Life's good they're not having a problem on the ponds now what about if um uh only because I've noticed some people saying that there's been like some green yes on the water hence French freshwater Pond okay totally natural yeah um the flex especially they see the flex in the water there and they're usually in the first 2 to 4 Ines of water um if you go down any deeper guess what it's Crystal Clear it's beautiful so what happens is that there's a you know cyano bacteria and cryptus um you know spidi and algae comes in all kinds of different forms yeah when they make a mat over the top of a pond y That's when you're really starting to have an issue yeah when you get that speckled through throughout the pond it's just part of the natural and we did post it on our website so anybody who wants to know anything about why there might be some green in a freshwater Pond or seaweed in the ocean um just go to our website and and I'll tell you to be alerted if it could be cob bacteria it is probably a for so so it's like people you have all different sizes shapes colors walks a you know so harmful ones though the easiest fastest test that anybody could do when they're starting to think oh my God there's something wrong yeah get a stick a branch okay peel the back off it stick it in the water and pull it up yeah if it sticks to it like you just stuck that into a can of paint yeah we got a problem okay if it doesn't stick to it yeah it's not crypto peridium sure sure um and if it's you know that blue green uh angel hair algae well that that's just the blue green Ang Aly um and then um in the event that that somebody does do that they reach out to me which I just did over near lamp post um for one of our um yeah residents grabbed samples jeez I can put them in the fridge take a look this might be you know um close but not there yet sent it out to D and D told me exactly what I just told us okay so and that was after two grabs at his house and I went to do go you go do another grab and he goes well it's not here today I said oh is the wind blowing in the opposite direction yes oh okay and unbeknown to one of my board members I also did a grab in his backyard which is the exact other side of the pond because I wanted to see depending upon which way the wind is blowing what's going on very clear over there I know that so it depends on where you are what you're doing and um fortunately I have many residents that I know in and around the pond because I like to tell people if I'm going to step on their property or I do tell people right and I can only do my beaches without having to do that so all right um fortunately
