Swan Creek Canal Company July 11, 2022
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Paul Webb. The
Board members present were Terry Allen, Bill Cox, Curtis Moldenhauer, and Riley Argyle on
the phone.
Jennifer Cassillas tendered her resignation. The board
accepted it with thanks to Jennifer for serving many years.
Discussion was held on a replacement for Jennifer. The board
has interviewed a candidate. Some of the problems facing the board is the tracking
of 1,000 shares. Jennifer worked hard on this particular problem, but sometimes
families didn’t record them with the Canal Company when they gave them to their
children.
Another problem the board discussed was the breach of the canal.
Engineers, geologists, and big trucks hired by Conestoga with the advice from
the canal board worked together to solve the issue. Of course renters at the
Ranch were not happy with the noise and the dust from the work that had to be
done so it took a little longer to finish. Now it is time for the bills to be
paid and the insurance companies and lawyers will work on that.
(The Board
agreed to meet again in August).
The Board has contracted with JUB to help find grants to
pressurize the pipe from Harbor Village to ? . Discussion
was held on the pipe sizing. The engineers will be able to tell the board which
size to get. The grant requires at 50% match in monies which will be difficult
for Swan Creek Canal Company to raise. Hopefully by next year the grant will be
in place.
Trails to go on top of the canal were discussed. Another
topic was the idea of how to use water shares not currently being used.
The meeting adjourned.
