The Pledge of Allegiance followed. Roll Call: Present: Conners, Freeman, Kinney, McDulin, Meyer, Purdin, and Redick Absent: Johnson (ex.) and Lindy (ex.) Minutes: The motion to approve the minutes of the September meeting as published in the October Waynoka Newsletter was made by McDulin, seconded by Kinney and passed by those present. President’s Statement regarding Manager O’Farrell: WPOA President, Tim Redick began the meeting by sharing a statement in which he provided the membership with accurate information regarding the now vacant General Manager position. He stressed that he was speaking “on behalf of the WPOA Board”. He explained why and how the Boards of the WPOA and the WRWSD and Manager Tim O’Farrell reached a mutual agreement to end Tim’s tenure as an active employee of the WPOA effective September 30, 2010. He also announced how the Lake will be managed until the position is filled. Please note that the full text of the statement will be printed in the November issue of the Lake Waynoka Newsletter as a part of the WPOA President’s Message. Treasurer’s Report (Betty Purdin): A brief review of the monthly report was shared with emphasis on the monies available in the capital funds accounts for the roads, the recreational facility, the lake and the campground. The treasurer with the help of Vickie Johnson will be happy to answer any questions property owners may have about the monthly WPOA Treasurer’s Report. Other Reports: Security (Chief Ellis): The Chief shared the good news that the number of criminal damaging, burglary and breaking and entering reports are down significantly (to zero) in September. All of the suspects with pending charges for offenses as previously reported in the WPOA minutes have pleaded guilty. An off-season house check procedure has been developed at the request of some property owners who do not reside at the Lake on a full-time basis. For a fee the security department will conduct house checks on a regular basis depending on the number of checks an individual home owner would like per week or per month. Contact the Chief with questions and the Administrative Office to sign up for participation in this procedure. A security check means that security personnel will go to one’s house, physically ‘try’ all of the doors, inspect all of the windows and keep a log of each check that is made. The Chief shared a graphic of the markings for the new cruiser and hopes that all of the equipment will be installed in the next week so the cruiser can be in service very soon. The chief thanked our alert citizenry for their help and support in solving cases. Long Range Planning (Ron Gloss): The website committee has a signed contract with a company in West Union to develop a new website for Lake Waynoka. Information is being shared and work has begun. The job description committee finished the general manager description in time to assist with the search for a new manager. The committee which has been reviewing rental policies for various Lake Waynoka owned properties will be making a presentation to the Board in the next month or so. The survey committee is working on a survey which will ask for property owner input regarding various issues and needs at the Lake and will be distributed by the end of the year. Lake Advisory (George Kinney): George shared that the committee continues to explore the options for excavating the upper end of the Lake and to solicit the services of a consulting firm to assess the lake and make recommendations to improve its condition. The Lake Committee and the Lake Advisory Committee will work together stocking the Lake in early spring. Nominating (Betty Purdin): As of 4 p.m. on October 8, 2010, three individuals – Joan Conners, Eric Kirk and Walt Robinson – submitted applications for the WPOA Board of Trustees and two individuals – Ron Gloss and Prescilla Redick – submitted applications for the WRWSD Board of Trustees. Unless applications come in the mail postmarked October 8, 2010, there will not be a need to hold an election for either Board according to the rules and regulations of both Boards. The Campground (Walt Robinson): Walt reminded everyone that the Halloween festivities are next Saturday evening. Walt asked the Board to work on the street addresses and numbers over the winter as well as possibly identify the streets with letters or whatever to prevent security, the life squad, and other emergency personnel from having problems locating campers who need their help. It was suggested that signage to the campground from the back gate also be erected. Also since the use of the pavilion has increased significantly it was suggested that a ‘satellite privy’ be installed. The Chapel (Bonnie Keith): The steeple will be installed on the chapel in the next couple of weeks. Chimes will also be installed. Stoney and Rhonda Hamilton are the new music ministers at the Chapel. There are now Wednesday evening services. Shawnee Squaws (Betty Purdin): Betty reminded everyone to attend the Craft Fair being held in the Health and Rec Center until 4 p.m. today. Lake Committee (Prescilla Redick): The winners of the Fall Bass Classic on Oct. 2nd (local residents Kiefer and Carter) took home over $1000 in prizes for first place and biggest bass. Donations for the Halloween festivities at the Lake are welcomed.

PDF compression, OCR, web optimization using a watermarked evaluation copy of CVISION PDFCompressor Waynoka News - New Business: Pres. Redick reviewed business discussed in the workshops on Sept. 17 and Oct. 8 as follows: 9/17 The web site renovation proposal was presented and the Board agreed to finalize the contract (approx. $6K) to undertake this project. 9/17 & 10/08 The budget planning schedule was discussed. 9/17 & 10/08 The Board supports action in regard to the pump dredging proposal and final arrangements should be completed in the next few weeks. 9/17 & 10/08 It was agreed that a contract to paint a center line on Waynoka Dr. be pursued (cost approx. $7K of road capital monies). 9/17 The implementation of the lottery machine proposal at the lounge was delayed until March 2011. 9/17 The restaurant will be closed from November 1 through March 30. 9/17 & 10/08 The golf cart opinion survey was discussed and is a work in progress. 9/17 The replacement for the old snowplow truck which will be sold to the WRWSD will be financed with road capital monies. 9/17 Chief Ellis was directed to develop a fee-based home security check service. 9/17 The Board reviewed a program proposed for charging for yard debris chipping services. Current on file requests will be done without a charge. 9/17 The Board agreed to donate a speaker’s podium in the lodge to the Tri-County Baptist Church in Sardinia. A thank you has already been received. 9/17 Estimates for the work needed to repair the campground water infiltration problem were reviewed. 10/08 Repairs at the Health and Rec Center will be made in the near future. The worn carpeting in the workout room will be replaced and the gym floor will be refinished. (A weekend closure of the gym will be required.) Requests to upgrade equipment were reviewed. 10/08 The Board agreed to look into potentially lower cost electrical suppliers. 10/08 The Board discussed the need for a building inspector as well as improved Information Technology support. 10/08 The advertisement and screening processes to replace the manager were reviewed. Redick then responded to membership concerns from the September public meeting. No action was taken regarding the expansion of the campground or its lighting. However, signage on the roads in the campground was discussed and will be painted once it is determined how it should be done. Maintenance has been directed to come up with a solution to make the restrooms at the Beach bathhouse handicap accessible. The pool pavilion fencing was discussed, but no action was taken. Replacement street signs have been purchased and will be installed in the near future. No action was taken about directional signs to the back gate. The erosion of the bank at the upper end of the Lake was discussed, but no action has been taken. Membership Concerns: Ann Jones (Lot #2821): Ann shared her concern about Custer Dr. becoming a ‘speed strip’. She suggested the installation of speed bumps. The Chief took note of this concern. Secondly, Ann asked if there were ways other than the Newsletter which arrives late in the month to announce activities and events at the Lake so that everyone has adequate time to make plans to attend. Lastly, Ann requested that the trash on Lot #2650 be cleaned up as “it looks terrible”! Bonnie Keith (Lot #3945): Bonnie asked the Treasurer to clarify that the total monies in the Campground Capital Fund were the total after all expenses had been paid as of September 30, 2010. The Treasurer agreed. Paul Hilliard (Lot #3314): Paul asked the status of the golf cart issue. Redick answered, “A survey is being developed to gather input from the property owners so that the Board can act in a manner which represents everybody’s desires.” Paul also asked Mr. Redick if he owned and operated a golf cart. Redick answered that he does own a golf cart and occasionally uses it for yard work. The cart is used because his property is ‘quite large’ and on a hill; but the cart is not used on the road. Pat McDulin (Lot#690): Pat reminded everyone that the Lounge does serve pizzas and sandwiches in the evenings. This would be an alternative to the restaurant which will be closing the end of this month. Board members also suggested that the proprietors of The Outpost (formerly, Mel’s) and The Backstreet Deli would also be happy to serve their sandwiches, etc. to Lake residents. Charles Palk (Lot #1029): Charles questioned whether or not the golf cart issue was ‘voted down’ three years ago. Charles believes that the Lake will “regret putting golf carts on these roads”. He suggested that someone on the Board make a motion that this issue not be revisited for at least ten years. Adjournment: The motion to adjourn was made by Freeman, seconded by Kinney, and passed by a unanimous vote at 10:45 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Joanne A.

Culver Absent: None Minutes: The minutes of the September 11th public meeting were read. A motion to approve the minutes was made by Buskey, seconded by Rider and passed unanimously. Treasurer’s Report (John Buskey): The monthly report for September was unavailable since this meeting is being held on the first day of the month. It was noted that there were many expenses in September. The details of these expenses will be shared during the October 9th meeting. The sewer assessment and delinquent water availability charges were certified to the Brown Co. Auditor on September 10. Plant Supt.’s Report (George Culver): As of September 30th the contractor has installed more than 650 of the anti-backup sewer valves. Problems have been encountered on several properties where blacktop or concrete cover the area where the installation is to be done. It was suggested that the WPOA building code be reviewed and updated to prevent such problems in the future. This work should be completed in the next week or so. The Lake has been receiving its water supply from the Brown County Rural Water Assn. since September 20th because equipment maintenance is being done in the plant. The sewer and water clarifiers and the sand filters are being sandblasted and painted. Culver and Buskey shared the progress and details of the work being done on the building at the water tower which will house equipment for the Brown County emergency services communications project as well as our network equipment. Introduction of New Resolutions and Motions: none Pending Resolutions and Motions: none Old Business: Gloss reviewed the details of the upcoming WRWSD election with the Board. Buskey then shared the proposal related to the restructuring of the budget. (All of the Board members had been given copies of the proposal prior to this meeting.) The original objectives were reviewed and specific changes were noted. The changes to policy were shared. All of these changes came from many discussions during meetings with the accountant on retainer, the manager and staff, the finance committee and Board members. A ‘clean’ copy of the “new budget” incorporating all of the changes and showing the 2010 budget amounts was reviewed to show how the “new budget” would actually function. The Board suggested that Buskey meet with Culver soon to discuss this document in detail. The Board agreed that work should continue to ‘tweak’ this document and to create a monthly report format that reflects the ‘new budget’ proposal. (Purdin was excused from the meeting about 9:50 a.m.) New Business: Motion #2010-13 was made by Buskey and seconded by Kirk to update the signature authority on all WRWSD bank accounts, certificates of deposits and other financial instruments at National Bank & Trust and other financial institutions effective October 1, 2010. A roll call vote was taken and the motion passed with seven yes votes. Other Business: Redick shared that the WPOA found it necessary to replace the old snowplow truck. The one ton diesel truck with a dump bed was offered to the WRWSD for purchase and necessary repairs. After discussing the offer Culver was directed by the Board to investigate the costs that would be incurred to repair this truck and to report his findings at the October 9th public meeting. After a brief discussion the Board also asked Culver to investigate engineering firms to consult about the possible expansion of the sewer plant. Adjournment: The motion to adjourn was made by Kirk and seconded by Rider. All were in favor and the meeting was adjourned at 10:30 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Joanne A.

Minutes: The minutes of the October 1st workshop meeting were approved as read. Treasurer’s Report (John Buskey): The cash balance including CDs available in the WRWSD budget was $918,008.71 as of September 30th. This balance is about $190K less than the August balance and reflects several major expenditures mostly relating to capital expenses made during September. The expenditures included the purchase of 25 grinder pumps for future use ($69K); the completion of the 6” water supply connection to BCRWA ($17,663) which came in under the budgeted estimate of $20,000; the painting of the water clarifier and the sewer clarifier ($7500 each); and the installation of the anti backup sewer valves at 700+ locations ($104K so far). The Lake’s water supply is presently coming from BCRWA. The painting should be finished early next week and after the paint dries for six to seven days the Lake will once again supply water for its residents. The installation of the backup sewer valves should also be completed in the near future. There are four locations where blacktop or concrete are problematic and Lake employees will be working with the property owners to finish this project. The WRWSD bills will be late this month due to the difficulties being experienced when using the instrument that reads the meters. Action will be taken soon to correct this problem. Culver reported prior to this meeting that the WPOA truck is being evaluated by mechanics. He will have an estimate of repair costs in the next week once the specific cause of the problem is determined. Old Business: none New Business: none Pending Resolutions and Motions: none Introduction of New Resolutions and Motions: none Other Business: none Membership Concerns: Ken Waggoner (Lot#764): Ken asked the Board’s opinion about the possible cause of a ‘clunking or hammering’ sound in his pipes that has just begun in the last couple of weeks. Several opinions were shared by members of the Board as well as the audience. Bill Marshall (Lot #1777): Bill asked how the BCRWA charged the Lake for its water. It was explained that the Lake pays for BCRWA water on a per use basis (presently $3.50 per 1000 gallons). There is no monthly fee in this 20 year contract. The Lake paid for the installation of the box, the meter and the cross connection line. Bonnie Keith (Lot # 3945): Bonnie had asked the WRWSD Board to check into the possibility of providing blanket sewer backup coverage for all of the 700+ homes at the Lake. Tim Redick responded that he has put the question to both legal counsel and the insurance company, but does not yet have a response from either one. Nancee Klein (Lot #1620): Nancee shared her experience when she submitted her claim to her insurance company for the sewer backup damage to her home and how this claim has affected her insurance rates. It was noted by Gloss that many home owners are also experiencing significant rate increases due to the new fire protection regulations that are now in effect. Roger Coker (Lot #1888): Roger shared that he had talked to Culver four or five days ago about the reclamation of his property after the backup valve installation. He questioned if the contractor had difficulty locating where to place the valve because the area torn up seems much larger than on other properties. There are tracks and ruts that he will not be able to mow over. Gloss shared that he and Culver had discussed that in the spring it will be necessary to repair some yards due to settlement of the soil over the winter. Gloss also shared that the contractor did not charge the Lake for the reclamation that was done and that any future work will be done by Lake employees. Gloss suggested that Culver will take a look at Roger’s property. Adjournment: The motion to adjourn was made by Purdin and seconded by Rider. All were in favor and the meeting was adjourned at 9:51 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Joanne A.

PDF compression, OCR, web optimization using a watermarked evaluation copy of CVISION PDFCompressor Waynoka News - 13 President’s Message The following is a rendition of my comments on behalf of the Trustees at the last WPOA Board meeting on October 8, 2010 regarding the retirement of Tim O’Farrell, our General Manager. My hope is that they may be helpful in understanding the course of this decision. The background to this decision actually began In June of this year when Tim initiated discussions with me and other Board members concerning the possibility of changes to his current employment agreement. These discussions were motivated by his desire to reduce the physical and mental demands of his General Manager’s role while allowing him to continue some involvement with WPOA. Additionally since Tim’s personal situation necessarily placed a great deal of importance on medical benefits provided to WPOA permanent full time employees, he preferred to retain this feature of his employment. As a result of that conversation and many subsequent discussions since, the WPOA Board of Trustees, the WRWSD Board of Trustees and Manager Tim O’Farrell unanimously reached a mutual agreement that effectively ended Tim’s tenure as an active employee of WPOA. This agreement, at Tim’s request, set his last day of active employment as Sept 30, 2010. Although some specifics of this agreement are necessarily confidential, I can tell you that in addition to ensuring that Tim received all compensation due him under the current employment agreement, it provides for supporting his need for medical insurance through the early part of 2012. During this same period of time Tim has agreed to be available to consult with the WPOA and WRWSD Boards anytime his experience and knowledge may be of benefit to the Boards. Of course there have been many rumors concerning the work on this agreement and the motivations for it. While the Board does not feel compelled to correct the accuracy of all of these, I will tell you that all trustees worked diligently to ensure that the best interests of both a long-term loyal employee and the association were met as well as they could be. This work has been very difficult for all of us involved because we are friends and neighbors and in the end we care about each other. All of us on both Boards have the utmost respect and appreciation for Tim’s many accomplishments over his 25 year career at Lake Waynoka. In many ways we are what we are as a community because of his work here. And while all of us most sincerely wish Tim the very best in his early retirement, I expect that we will continue to see him involved around the community in the months ahead. If you do, hopefully each of you will take the opportunity to personally express your own appreciation and best wishes. Going forward the Board will move as quickly as possible to fill the vacant manager’s position. To dispel one rumor I can tell you that all current Board members are ineligible to be considered for the position. As we are unsure as to how long this sourcing may take, we are asking everyone’s cooperation in managing through this transition. All department heads have been advised that we must continue to make every effort to maintain our quality of service to the property owners. Keep in mind that some projects may be delayed but we will continue to plan to progress as a community. Vickie Johnson will be acting as the interim manager of operations. She will be supported by the executive committees of both Boards as necessary. I will be personally assisting Vickie in responding to property owner concerns and developing solutions to the normal operational issues that must be dealt with on a day to day basis. With everyone’s help I would expect no major problems. Thank you, Tim Redick The Lake Waynoka Chapel welcomes Stoney and Rhonda Hamilton as our directors of music and chapel music ministers.

On Friday, September 10th the Shawnee Squaws of Lake Waynoka were honored to be allowed to thank a small group of men and women who have helped guarantee our freedoms of religion and assembly, the free press and free speech, and our rights to fair trials and to vote in our great country. Twenty five veterans from the VA Home in Georgetown and more than a dozen vets who live at the Lake were treated to a great meal and an afternoon of fishing and relaxation courtesy of the Shawnee Squaws. The weather was perfect… no rain or extreme heat! Thank you, God! The pavilion, bathhouse and grounds were so clean! Thank you, Waynoka Men of Maintenance! The food was as wonderful as always! Thank you, ladies of the Shawnee Squaws! Thank you, Julie of the Mt. Orab Kroger’s for the gift card that helped us purchase the meat. The meats were grilled to perfection! Thank you, Vince, Roger, George, Beve, John and Betty! The ice that chilled our drinks did its job! Thank you, Jim and James of the Marina! The fish didn’t go hungry either… There were worms for them all! Thank you, Jim and James of the Marina, for your donation of the bait. The wheelchair accessible picnic tables were just what 16 vets needed! Thank you, Lake Waynoka Lions Club members! The set-up, serving and clean up went very well! Thank you, ladies of the Shawnee Squaws and your husbands, vets and other guests who helped! The vets loved winning the patriotic T-shirts, bags and blankets in the raffle. Thank you, Valerie and Betty for your donations. And lastly, a very large thank you to the ladies on the Veteran’s Picnic Committee: Liz Beresford, Eileen Brown, Diana DeVol, Lynn Prewitt & Mary Kay Wolfe. THANK YOU, EVERYONE for making this year’s picnic the best one yet! Joanne Coker, Chair of the Shawnee Squaws’ Annual VA Picnic Lake Waynoka Chorus GOOD NEWS for the Chorus; An accomplished piano player, Joy Crieghton, has joined the Chorus. This releaves Jeanne Eastlake and Gloria Rutan whoe now may give full attention to singing. Also, a new soprano Diane Winklejohn, has joined. All members have use of a song book of 34 songs. At the last session, Tuesday, Oct. 5, the group felt there was interest in the Chorus beyond Lake Waynoka boundaries, therefore, it was decided to accept members beyond our community boundaries. The storage items in the music room have been removed and the room with its new piano is excellent for the Chorus. The next session is Tuesday, 10/19 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Discussion is 6:30 to 7:00 and singing is 7:00 to 8:00. If anyone wishes to join, call me or any Chorus member.

Talk Second. to raise public awareness around the importance of utilizing text messaging for non-emergency communications during a disaster. When disasters strike, voice networks can become congested with people trying to call each other for nonvital communications. This can result in people in desperate need of help being unable to contact those they need to reach, such as emergency services, friends or loved ones. In some instances, this may also result in emergency service personnel being unable to communicate with each other. Here is what you can do: - Take the Pledge! Join hundreds of thousands of your fellow citizens in pledging to participate in a preparedness activity (texting). - Get the word out. Let your family and friends know if a natural or man-made disaster happens in your vicinity, the best way to find out if you are okay is to first try and contact you via text message and then phone. - Make sure everyone in your family knows how to use the text messaging function on their mobile phone and if they don’t, teach them. Finally, do one of the following texting activities: Drill A – Family/Friend/ Emergency Contact: Send, Receive, and Confirm text message with family member or friend. 1. Individual sends a text message to a family member and/or friend during the exercise. Text First. Talk Second “I M OK”/ “R U OK” 2. Family member/friend responds with “I M OK” Drill B – Employer to Employee Groups: Send, Receive and Confirm text messages with employees. 1. Employer sends text message to employees announcing a drill, e.g., “This is a texting drill through the alert notification system. For more information on preparedness, please go towww.safeamericaprepared.org (or insert organization website) or contact (supervisor, safety department, etc.) for more information.” 2. Employees respond by going to the website and/or making the suggested contact for moreinformation on preparedness.
