Anita Freemantle gave a report on the progress of the water company purchase.  The owners have the purchase agreement and should have it back to the board soon and escrow will be opened at that time. They have collected $192,830 and still have money coming in.

Gary Standley talked to the Trinity County Road Department about the pot holes on our roads.  It was taken out of the budget this year and Gary suggested that we try to get them repaired ourselves.  Anita suggested contacting Jim and Jeff West and see if they could help with the repair. He will get back to us with the estimate.

Road frontage clearing was discussed.  The County still had not cleaned up the corners of China Flat and Lone Pine.  Cindy will get a work group together to do the work on Lone Pine and China Flat.  She will also contact the gentleman for the annual clearing of the meridian.  TVIA will pay him as before.

The newsletter will be out soon.
