Since the last board meeting (9.29.20), the Cleanup Committee has mobilized. It will run in three sections under the direction of Willie LaFavor, committee chair: Safety Subcommittee: Execution Subcommittee: Communications Subcommittee. Please see the committee member's section on this page below for members and their contact information.
All three sub-committees have met and are establishing plans to carry out our mission. Melissa Geary has provided the teams with an island road and property map to aid the process.
The Safety team is identifying issues with existing debris and household trash as well as problematic trees. They will triage each issue, noting and classifying the urgency of each potential problem to create an orderly plan for cleanup. They are taking the fire and protection needs as well as the school bus route needs as the highest priorities.
Jami Farber on the Communications team will serve as the liaison with the Safety team, providing updates as work progresses.
The Execution team is working towards hiring an outside contractor to clean up debris on the island (if FEMA assistance is not provided).
Meetings with contractors have begun to discuss debris removal and seek cost quotes.
The Execution team assigned members to check with residents to determine whether they need individual assistance on clean up.
Bonnie Kershaw of the Communications team will serve as the liaison with the Execution team, providing updates as work progresses.
Annette Thompson and Dennis Geary will update the HOA website as often as possible as the teams progress. Meanwhile, Jami Farber will create links from the Facebook account directing traffic to the website.
