        Residents who go north and do not maintain their property:   Discussed this subject and the BOD referred to Article VI, Section 1, page 14,  where the home owner is responsible to designate someone to be responsible to maintain their property while up north.

        STRAY ANIMALS:  The BOD is not responsible to take care of stray animals.  Dutch said that it would help if everyone insured that their trash is contained so that animals can’t get to it.  He also said that people who feed the animals only add to the strays staying around.  There is an animal trap in the Assoc. shed if anyone wishes to use it. 

        RIGHTS OF HOUSE SITTERS:  There are no house sitters in our village, so therefore they have no rights.
