JD Barnes: completed staking/survey property on Old Hall Road.  Awaiting final report.

Skating Rink Repairs  Boards need to be scraped and re-painted, leveling and possibly some fill.  Darren Auld, Tim Wheeler and BJ Kapush will facilitate and complete these tasks before fall and submit costs as acquired.

Meeting with Lakehead School update  RS Bobcat inspected playground equipment offered by the school board and it is not worth salvaging; it is 10-15 years old and would not meet safety standards once its removed and set back up.  RS Bobcat will drop off some catalogues for future options.

Land Development Old Hall Road property  Board met on the new property on May 27 and did a walk about.  Test holes were done and came back great; showing no bedrock so there should be enough fill on the property to do what we need.  Lorenz Bosinger brought safety concern of the crater pond on the property; it needs to be addressed, as well, as the incline on the existing driveway.  Due to the lateness of the calendar year to hire contractors, it is suggested to issue BJ Kapush a 1x honorarium to level the property and address the pond/driveway incline.  This would insure the Board the work was completed this summer, as planned.

Mileage Mileage reimbursement for Board business including Fire Number Installation is increased to $1.00/km, effective June 1, 2022 due to inflation and rising fuel prices. Motion 04/06/22  Moved by Lorenz Bosinger, seconded by BJ Kapush.  Adopted.

Website update Bonnie Buck presented a quote received from Nalu, a local website company to create a new website for lappe.ca  Completion date of mid-July.  The Board accepted this quote and motion was carried.  Motion 05/06/22 Motion to approve estimate for new website. Moved by BJ Kapush, seconded by Lorenz Bosinger.  Adopted.
