New Business:

Stubblefield Trees – Kurt viewed the property and talked with Mr. Stubblefield. The property is under two (2) acres total and Mr. Stubblefield has 23 trees marked for removal. Mr. Stubblefield stated he is concerned about the trees falling on his house. Mr. Stubblefield stated that he talked to Alan Ward about removing them. The Board reviewed the rendering that Kurt had on his laptop and discussed the removal. The Board stated there are 8 trees that are close to the house that could be removed but the rest should not be removed as none of the trees are dead or diseased and that removing so many healthy trees all at once could possibly interfere with the natural ecosystem, not to mention that it is against the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for the subdivision. The debris from live trees, coupled with the debris he already has on his property, would create more of a fire hazard and bug problem for the subdivision. Mr. Stubblefield stated he wants to have the trees removed asap. Kurt motioned to not allow the removal of any trees. Kris seconded, all ayes.

Fire Protocol – With the recent fire on Rosebush Drive, nobody on the Board was contacted when the fire was reported to 911. Lisa B, spoke to the Sheriff and he will draft a protocol document for Duquette Pines. Instructions for what to do in case of a fire and a fire supply box, with a hose and nozzle, will be put in the shed.

Adjourn: The meeting was adjourned at 7:56 pm. Next meeting will be November 6^th.

Respectfully submitted by Dee Woodstrom, Secretary
