New Business Spill Way Repair.

At the May 2025 LPCA budget meeting the community gave their approval to the board to hire Loureiro to prepare a design and pricing package for the repair to the spillway.  What Loureiro prepared for the LPCA was a conceptual design and pricing report.  Copies were made available   to the community for review. Jennifer Steinman stressed the urgency in getting the spill way repaired ASAP; years of neglect had finally taken its toll.  She also informed the community that the valve is also in need of repair.  The board proposed that a special tax assessment should be placed on all homeowners to pay for repairs.  A lengthy discussion occurred regarding the cost of the project and how the community would pay for this project.   It was brought to the notice of the BOG that three quotes were required and that the BOG had not provided any quotes. Loureiro only provided a conceptual design and pricing report for the spillway repairs, and it should not be considered.  (NOTE: nothing appears in our bylaws that three quotes were required.  This decision was brought up at a 2008 LPCA meeting where it was voted on and approved. It only appears only in the minutes). The community voted that the BOG solicit three quotes for the spillway repair.  Once obtained, the BOG should call another special meeting with the community to review the quotes and agree on how to pay for the project.  Board

president, Jennifer Steinman, asked the community to assist with getting additional quotes using the design provided by Loureiro.  All quotes should be forwarded to the board.  The community would be updated on our progress with this project via email blasts.
