TIMBERON WATER & SANITATION DISTRICT 
MINUTES FOR THE MEETING HELD ON
FEBRUARY 15, 2006

A meeting of the board of directors of the Timberon Water and 
Sanitation District was called to order on February 15, 2006 at 6:00 
P.M., in the community center.  Board members present were Joan Schug, 
Sid Benson, Scott Millar, Tom Tannehill, and Betty Phillips.

Joan Schug announced the Board held a closed session at 5:30 pm.   
(Sid Benson did not attend.)  The general manager's performance was 
discussed and no action was taken.

The general manager's report, minutes and treasurer's report will be 
presented at the Saturday meeting.

Bill Gideon explained that at Virgil Beagles request, mediation had 
been set up to solve some of the differences between him and TWSD.  
After arrangements were made, Mr. Beagles called back to say that he 
did not want to mediate. 

The union representative will be in to negotiate a contract for the 
employees on March 2nd or 3rd.  This item will be on the Saturday 
agenda to authorize Bill Gideon and Betty Phillips to negotiate for 
TWSD with final approval by the board of directors.

Betty Phillips stated her reasons for requesting that a board member 
sign checks was she felt it is a fiscal responsibility of the Board.  
The auditor and Department of Finance and Administration were pleased 
with TWSD operations and the new policy was not an issue of employee 
trust.

Betty Phillips urged the directors to review the restaurant lease and 
meter reader contract renewals and be prepared to vote on Saturday.

Shirley Mohon will be at the Saturday meeting to request a line 
extension on Summer Drive.

Joan Schug requested that the board form a committee to discuss ways 
to operate the golf course.

Tom Tannehill explained the pending litigation.  As a result of a 
court of appeals decision, T.W.S.D. will have to cut their tax levy by 
61% if Judge Valentine rules against the District.  It will cut the 
General Fund revenues from $360,000 to $140,000.  This subject will 
not be placed on the Saturday agenda.

A parks and recreation committee needs to be set to suggest fees for 
the pool and golf course.

Fran Trendler requested that a Memorandum of Understanding be placed 
on the agenda.  This agreement would allow Timberon Development 
Council to use property off Rio Pinar Drive for chipping and grinding 
slash.

The meeting was adjourned.
