Water Society AGM

The Society's AGM for the Fiscal Year 2009 was held on Sunday afternoon. About 18 members attended. A few basic highlights:

Maintenance (a favourite topic on this blog) has been in high gear since last spring and many essential projects have been completed with others identified for future attention. A few items remain on the agenda to complete before winter.

So far in 2010, about 175 volunteer hours of work have been contributed to the maintenance of the system. This doesn't include the time spent by people on water teams, the Board, taking water samples, testing for chlorine, doing the financial records and so on.

Financially, the Society is in good shape. It is unlikely that we will have a profit this year given our maintenance spending, but we should be close to a break-even situation by year-end.

The new metered water rates seem to be working well and should provide the Society with about as much revenue as did the old flat-rate system.

Several other items of a routine nature were discussed at the meeting, some of which will be addressed in future posts to this space.

The meeting was followed by a potluck supper.
