Treasurer’s Report
- Karen was unable to attend but sent in a report that the budget is on track. For a copy of the budget, please contact treasurer@pickwickvillage.org
By-Laws:
- No report.
Beautification:
- The snowplow contract has been finalized for $9,290. This includes 13 plows, plus salting. Heavy snowfall (more than 10 inches) that requires more than multiple passes could potentially be counted as two plows. After the 13 plows, the association would pay on a per-plow basis. We did not use all 13 plows last year.
- Stacey has noticed several piles of branches and debris along Lilley Road, in the tree lawn along Pickwick Village. The township does not remove debris from that area, and our lawn service provider is not responsible for debris from private property.
- Mike volunteered to clean up the debris this time.
- Residents should refrain from leaving lawn and yard debris along the road.
Welcoming:
- Five homes in Pickwick Village have new residents. Kelly will visit them in the coming weeks to deliver their welcome packets.
Social media
- To reduce spamming from non-residents, we have changed the neighborhood Facebook group to “private” so that only members of the group will be able to see who’s in the group and what is posted.
New business
- Letters regarding the annual dues will go out in January. Dues for 2023 will be $115 (plus a processing fee if paid online).
Old business
- The 5th Annual Chili Cook-off had a great turnout this year, with nine entries to select from. The Bruen Family won first place and took home the trophy and bragging rights for the year. Thanks to everyone who participated!
The meeting adjourned at 7:30 p.m.
The lights judging will take the place of the December board meeting. The next meeting will be at 7:00 p.m. on January 17, 2023, at 6760 Brookshire Drive.
