Maintenance Committee Report
New England Fence has repaired the "green fence" up on the hill on Spring Pond Circle. A thank you note was read from homeowner Jane Laughton, thanking the Board for their attention to this.
The sink holes at #12 Ruch Lane and #23 Spring Pond Circle have been noted and we are waiting for RCH Paving to contact us regarding the proper repair.
We are also waiting to hear from Dick Dewey regarding the replacement of numerous kick boards.
We are still exploring the possibility of having a storage shed beside the Community Center.
Bill Bannister has spoken with the Code Enforcement at Town Hall and it was determined that the original plan shows an emergency access road at the end of Ruch Lane. The Fire Chief at the York Beach Fire Station will be notifying abutters on the other side of the fence.
It was noted that some of the gulleys still need cleaning out.
