LAKE HAUTO CLUB NEWSLETTER PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE By Kenneth Snyder Finally summer is here. This was a rough winter on our roads, equipment and labor costs. The snow was late leaving, so we are behind two months in outdoor maintenance. We made up for two months in one month in order to be ready for Memorial Day. You will be seeing a new face on 5500 running feet of Lake Drive. It is going to be milled to its base and reconstructed with a new road. This will start a little bit west of our directional pole at the island and stop at Hemlock Road. We are also doing a long –awaited Spruce Terrace. The total cost is $255,000.00. There will not be any loans. We have the necessary money in reserve for roads. This money comes from the budget; most of it is from reserves and your road assessment. I would like to thank everybody that cooperated and paid their road fee on time or this could not have been possible. With the new road you will find yourself very easily going over the speed limit of 25 MPH on Lake Drive. Please try to restrain yourself and keep the speed down. Eastwood Beach is being reconstructed at this time. The budget for this project is $9000.00 to complete. The stone wall that you see is not completed, but it will be in the near future. The slate bank up to the tennis court is going to be regraded. Also there are new windows ordered for the restrooms. A new information board was installed, along with painting of the posts and door. We are changing the hand towels to automatic with the hope of saving the cost on paper towels. That does not seem to be much, but we use three quarters to a full case every week. We hope to lower the lake this year and then we will be able to finish the boat ramp that we started last year. This winter we will be building all new docks at Eastwood, both A and B docks. On the parking lot we are hoping to put in a new layer of stone. More sand was put on the beach. Thanks to the volunteer that runs the stone scrubbing machine on the sand and picks up all the small stones. Also I would like to thank the person that rakes the beach every week. At Oakwood Beach, we have redone the parking lot to direct the water back to the trench, instead of the water running down over the beach and washing the sand into the lake. The trees and bushes that were donated last year all survived. I was a little worried about one tree, but it came around. We put more sand on the beach to add to the sand that we put there last year. We have LAKE HAUTO CLUB SUMMER 2014 Editor: Kim Thomas cleared out ditches to divert the water away from the beach. At Crescent Beach, we put sand on the beach. We are going to put new stone on the parking lot at the office. We also mulched the entire plant areas with the help of the Beautification Committee and our maintenance crew. Two docks at Crescent were reconditioned, which we were hoping to get in earlier this season, but the docks were snowed in. We are also going to do some painting of doors, walkways and so forth. At Zero Beach, we intend to complete that beach, not all this year, but in the near future. That is a forgotten beach. It is located going east on Lake Drive and then it is on the right, opposite the road that goes to our maintenance shop. It is nice water for swimming and we also have docks there that are rented. Our intention this year is to cut all the weeds, put sand on the beach and build a parking lot. Future boards will decide where to go from there. We are considering changing the name and running a contest to choose a new name. However, I kind of like the name “0” Beach. The reason it gets its name is because we had one, two and three beaches already in place, so for lack of a better word, they called it “0” Beach keeping the numbers in order. The gates are working, but not to our satisfaction. This is an ongoing project. With the cameras on the gates we are able to see who is tailgating (we are working to solve this problem), but our members also have to cooperate to help us solve this problem. It is for your own protection. Therefore, if you see anybody tailgating please stop your vehicle and tell them. You can never be sure who the members are. The cameras for security are doing their job. We have seen and found people that were breaking rules. Some of the cameras, which we have been testing for a year, are being relocated. We also have the gates for security and for the summer we have hired a security team. We are protected as well as we can be due to the budget constraints. The only thing left to do is a guard at the east gate and the west gate, which would cost approximately $300,000.00 per year. We have established new rules for the boats to be registered. This has been done to stop nonmembers or renters from putting boats on the lake. The new rules are listed later in this newsletter. The board is enforcing very strongly that you must be 16 years old to ride the all-terrain vehicles and four wheelers They will also be checking for their sticker PAGE 1 SUMMER 2014 President’s message (continued from page 1): numbers to be current. Next season, there is consideration of a whip stick on the machine with a flag and your number. This will give us a better chance to read the numbers of violators. Maintenance did a very good job this year. The roads were kept clean during the winter with the use of sand and salt. We patched the potholes on all the roads; of course, we are bound to miss some. On Lake Drive, where the roads are being totally replaced, we are only patching the larger holes. Our equipment breakdown is very low and the equipment is being well maintained. They are cutting grass practically all day, working on “0” Beach, and preparing Lake Drive for the new road. There are so many things that they do that I could fill this whole newsletter. Jim is learning the gates so that when something goes wrong, he now knows how to reboot them up and do minor adjustments. In time, he will know how to do all the minor adjustments. Kim does all the computer work for putting in the codes. The changes have to be up loaded at the gates, so when you see her there, be cautious. The Community Center is still for rent and the board is looking into how to use it. The siding that was blown off on the northwest side of the building was replaced. The library in the Community Center is long overdue to be finished. A volunteer is helping some of our crew on rainy days to finish it. When it is finished, you will be able to sit and read books at your leisure or take them home. This year the board has built on the projects that last year’s board started and continues to complete those projects along with starting new ones. If you intend to run for the board, you can pick up a petition at the office. The completed petition needs to be returned to the office in person by July 17, 2014 by two o’clock. It cannot be mailed or put through the mail slot. You need just ten signatures by members in good standing in order to run for the board. I would like to thank the Beautification Committee and the board for the work that is being done. Some of the flowers were donated and we thank them for their donation. The club and the Beautification Committee also paid for some of the flowers. Thanks to the donations that are listed is this newsletter. It is making possible for us to have fireworks on the Fourth of July and Labor day. Also we are having a variety of bands, which are also listed in this newsletter. Please come out and enjoy! Wishing you a safe and pleasant summer season!! SECURITY By Dave DeMelfi The summer season has begun! Security at LHC is underway. We've employed the Legion Security Firm this year. Last summer, there were too many trespassers in our development using our facilities. In many instances there were non-members launching their own watercraft and utilizing our lake, not to mention our beaches and recreation areas. If you do not own property in LHC, you are not a member. There have been several misunderstandings concerning this issue. Non-members are NOT permitted to launch their own watercraft on the lake or to operate recreational vehicles on Lake Hauto property. Legion Security will be patrolling our community and enforcing all LHC rules and regulations. This is strictly for our safety and protection, both personally and legally. The gates have been in operation and we are getting the bugs out of them. Members and their guests are asked NOT to piggyback through the gates. This causes needless problems and can potentially cause damage to your vehicle and LHC property. Lake Hauto Community is not responsible for damage you cause by piggybacking. Also, members are encouraged NOT to give non-members their gate code, cards or clickers to gain entrance into our development. There is a weekly code for that purpose. Members will be held responsible for any damage caused by their guests. Just a reminder, no one under the age of 16 is permitted to operate a recreational vehicle (atv's, golf carts, motorcycles, dirt bikes, etc.) on Lake property. Also, those members that are 16 and older must have a valid driver's license in order to operate a recreational vehicle. As you know, we've implemented a new system this year. All members were required to sign the rules and regulations document. This gives the board of directors, as well as, security the right to inspect all watercrafts and recreational vehicles for proper documentation, tags, legal size and most importantly, legal horsepower. Those in violation will be fined. Anyone who refuses to allow the inspection of their watercraft and/or recreational vehicles will be subject to a fine as well. All members must wear beach tags and their guests must have guest stickers on the beach and recreational areas. Remember, this makes it easier for security and members to determine who belongs here and who does not. Trespassers do not pay our LHC dues, assessments and taxes so they should not enjoy our amenities. Remember, Legion Security is here to secure our development and to keep us safe. Wishing you a great summer 2014! Thank you for your assistance!! The Board of Directors would like to thank the members who have reported any violations in our community. We appreciate your help when you report dangerous situations, damage to our property and any infraction to our rules. We encourage you to report any concerns to the office or any board member. LAKE HAUTO CLUB PAGE 2 SUMMER 2014 NEW RULES SECTION B. WATERCRAFT 9. The outboard watercraft must be 20 feet or less and have an engine of 200 horsepower or less. 23. Only the member that is listed on the membership (and the deed) is permitted to register any recreational equipment. The member must be in good standing before they can register any equipment. The recreational equipment including equipment such as inboard and outboard boats, personal watercrafts, four wheelers, golf carts and so forth. The insurance statement must be in the same name as the owner of the equipment and has to be the member only. 12. Bona fide leases shall not be able to launch a watercraft. SECTION C. SNOWMOBILES, MOTORIZED AND MISCELLANEOUS RECREATION VEHICLES 12. Only the member that is listed on the membership (and the deed) is permitted to register any recreational equipment. The member must be in good standing before they can register any equipment. The recreational equipment including equipment such as inboard and outboard boats, personal watercrafts, four wheelers, golf carts and so forth. The insurance statement must be in the same name as the owner of the equipment and has to be the member only. WATER SKIING 1. All water skiing shall be done in the area designated by buoys. Traffic is to flow counterclockwise. 2. All water skiing hours are between 10 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. daily within the confines of the skiing area. These times superseded only by State Rules. 3. Only those boats engaged in the towing of water skiers will be permitted within the designated skiing area during the skiing hours on Saturday, Sunday, and designated State or Federal Holidays. During weekdays, if no skiing is being done, other boats are permitted the use of the area. All 2014 stickers MUST be placed on both sides of the boat in full view without having to move any personal equipment (such as covers). Security will assume that the boat does not have a sticker and the board will possibly fine the member for not displaying the sticker within full view. This is a rough sketch of the lake indicating the direction in which all motorized boats must travel. Motorized boats must travel in a counter clockwise direction around the designated ski area. Water skiing and tubing is only permitted in the center designated ski area. Motorized boats not skiing are not permitted in the ski area unless they are pulling a skier or someone in the tube. The “No Wake” area means exactly that, your boat should be going slow enough to not produce a wake. Following these boating rules will only help to make our lake a safer place.

The Best of Wishes, Dad, Renee, Nana, Pop, Ava, Cherise and Nicole LAKE HAUTO CLUB PAGE 8 SUMMER 2014 LAKE HAUTO CLUB PAGE 9 SUMMER 2014 THE VOTING AND COUNTING PROCESS EXPLAINED DO NOT SIGN YOUR BALLOT. Place your ballot into white envelope #1 and seal. Do NOT put the number of votes on the white envelope. This number is filled in by the tellers. The number represents how many lots you own. It is NOT how many people you are voting for or how many people are in your household or on the deed. Place sealed envelope #1 into envelope #2. Do not remove the return label on the green envelope or your vote will not count. Please mail this ballot so that it is received in the post office no later than the date that is specified on the ballot. No ballots will be accepted in the office. Hand delivered ballots will NOT be accepted at the Lake Hauto Club office. Only the ballots that are received from the post office box will be accepted. The procedure for counting votes: There are always from six to eight volunteers who serve as tellers . There is one Judge of Elections. The green envelopes are put in alphabetical order first. Then only the green envelopes are opened at this time. The names are then individually called out, the teller is then told how many votes/number of lots that member has and that number is then recorded on the white envelope by the teller. The green envelope is then discarded before the white ballot envelope is ever opened. After all the names are called, the white envelopes are then individually opened and the number of lots/votes is marked on the ballot itself. The final step is to count the votes. For example, if you have one lot, your vote is worth one. If you have 2 lots, your vote is worth 2, and so on. If the question is “yes” or “no”, you must make a choice. If you are voting for board of directors, you may vote for just one or up to the number of positions that are open. Your vote will be disqualified if you owe dues for more than one year, delinquent on an assessment, or your name is missing from the green envelope and we cannot check whether you are eligible to vote. I hope that this clarifies the counting process for all ballots. This is your community and it is very important to vote so that you are heard. Observe the speed limits within the lake. It is only 25 MPH on Lake Drive. Please watch out for joggers , walkers, people on bikes and children at play. Please Slow Down! Congratulations to all of our Lake Hauto graduates from Tamaqua, Panther Valley and Marian High Schools. Congratulations to all 2013 graduates of other high schools, colleges and universities! Good luck in whatever you choose to do. We are proud of all your accomplishments! Damage to our Gates According to the Vehicle Code of PA, there is an obligation of a driver to report any damage to our gates.
