New Business

President Adams said that Secretary/Treasurer Caponetto will be conducting the meeting tomorrow night as he will be out of town.

Election Results

President Adams said he hasn’t heard yet on the results of the primary election which was held last Tuesday. If the candidates get 50% of the votes, then they are elected. There will be a runoff if they do not receive 50% of the votes and have to run in November. At tomorrow night’s meeting, we may have the final results.

Director Morgan brought up the subject of Dike Road. He said they were working on five lots, 20 acres, and that Mohave County will not let them trench. He wanted to know who owns the easement and is still wanting to hear back from Mohave County. Discussion was held regarding PUE’s and legal status. Very unusual situation.

President Adams said that he had driven through Rotary Park and that next to the warehouse by Playa Del Rio, a roof structure was being built. He could tell that it did not meet code. President Adams said he talked to Billie at the Building Department and that he didn’t know anything about it. He said he then emailed Toby Cotter and told him that the roof structure did not meet code. Toby Cotter responded that the city staff said it was fine.

President Adams that they are violating a lot of things under procurement law. Also said that the city is not allowed to compete with private industry. Seems like there is a double standard between the city and the contractors.

Guest Speaker

President Adams said that Hildy Angius, Mohave County Supervisor District 2, will be speaking to our members at tomorrow night’s dinner meeting.

Adjournment

President Adams asked if anyone had anything else to discuss. He then asked for a motion to adjourn. Director Frederickson made a motion to adjourn. Director Lopez-Rajaniemi seconded the motion. All were in favor. Motion passed. Meeting adjourned at 12:55 p.m.
