Call to order at 7:10pm.
First order of business was to elect the slate of officers. There were no positions that had more than one volunteer, so the following list made up the slate:
President - Walt Thompson
Vice President - Catriona (Cat) Smith
Secretary - *
Treasurer - Eileen Glover
* to be discussed at next meeting to confirm
The position of secretary is not finalized yet. The board members present did not feel it was appropriate to elect a board member who was not present to serve as secretary. It was decided that if KB or CC would like to serve the board in that capacity, one of them will be the secretary, however, that if neither one is willing then EM will do it again. LB suggested maybe there should be something in the bylaws that prohibit a person from serving for more than X number of terms, to avoid having someone get stuck in a position for too long. EM made a motion to accept the slate of officers under those terms LB seconded the motion, and all were in favor.
CS asked if any board members had additional items to add to the agenda. WT added discussion of Wharf Cove.
Minutes All board members reviewed the 4/3/01 minutes. There was some wording changed by WT about the Wharf Cove discussion; he suggested no parking be added to the other side of the road as well. The motion regarding the VNA sign is to include location to be determined by the new board. There was a line stating the bylaws will be on the ballot stricken. CS made a motion to accept the minutes with the changes, EM seconded the motion, and all were in favor.

KB, CC and JM were assigned committee positions, and that can be discussed and changed at the next meeting. The committees are to bring a list of highlights or responsibilities that the committee will attempt to carry out over the year. The Community Relations Committee is new, and includes being the liaison to the VVFD and other organizations, as well as taking the lead on newsletters.
Lake Travis Committee CS reported that LCRA has developed a video of what the projected result of a major flood would bring. She is going to try to get a copy of the video for review.
Roadways/Safety Committee EM reported that the county has not returned her phone call about the no parking signs, and she intends to call Commissioner Sonleitners office to see if that will help to motivate the engineers.
Other WT said he has talked to Roger Shull, VVFD Fire Chief, about the Wharf Cove congestion issue. He has asked VVFD to write a letter to the county requesting no parking signs be added to the other side of Wharf Cove in order to keep the area clear for emergency vehicles.
The VNA sign will be added to next months agenda for discussion.
LB reported that Davy Dr. and Debbie Dr. are in bad shape, and she has not gotten a straight answer from the county about what they intend to do about them. She said the school bus will not come down the road because of the road condition (potholes and such). She would like to know if those roads were included in the list of roads accepted by the county for maintenance. EM is to check on that and report back.
LS has an email correction, it is slaton@attglobal.net
Meeting adjourned at 8:50 PM.
