Election Results

The electors have spoken, and based upon the results of the election and the questions, the electors want to move forward with an operating high water outlet. In July 2024, this will no longer be a project but will become a functioning outlet. We would like to thank everyone that voted and every candidate that ran for the director positions. We would like to encourage the community to come together. We all recognize that it is ok to disagree, but now it is time to put our differences aside and become good neighbors once again.
Let us know if you have further questions,

Thank you,

Rick Rosar, Bob Koll, Fred Comb, Bob Ingle, and Patricia Tvedt
Board of Directors
