Need a volunteer time keeper for tomorrow. Jim or Zan, do either of you techie guys have a cool watch to remind us when a minute is up? Dont want to be a jerk but will need to keep things moving if we want to escape before dark. Mark bollman The clay is far heavier and denser than snow and slush and it has no place to go, once disturbed, except downhill. I see on the Engineers map they show some claimed dump-age on the corner by the falls? Or is that just noting the runoff that Mother Nature made? It also has far less give than snow and the likelihood of de$troying the grader blade is far too high to chance. In a previous life I drove heavy equipment (about 30 years ago) for Inland Cement. Unloading barges of raw materials used to make concrete. Doing so really teaches you the difference between pushing lime, potash and other materials.

All, Just so you guys know — I’m really confused about what we should do. Sorry if I’m a flip-flopper. I think the one lane open thing is working okay. The shuttle idea was for those with crappy tires. And, some folks just don’t trust the slide. Today Ron Simms let me know that we should check the bylaws — that home owners can work on the roads, but just can’t get compensated. See you guys tomorrow.

Anita Hello Lynn: You make a number of good points. It will move mud. But lets look a little further. Where is that mud going to go when it comes off the blade of the grader? The only place that I see is down hill. At the moment we dont have a down hill problem. Slush is snow that will turn into water. MUD is mud it will not turn into anything else. Now if the hoe is used he picks the mud up and puts it where he wants it. The grader cant do that. At best it can be a controlled chaos. Does that answer help any?

Is the lot I referred to a good choice? You said you looked at it. Did Gary say he could have more at his location? These are answers our liaison should bring to the board with a motion.

I am very sorry if my actions yesterday felt like a personal attack on you because that was the last thing I wanted. I was just determined to find out if MH had been lying or not. I needed some straight answers about who said what to whom about dumping mud. As a Registered Nurse, I am supposed to follow orders from physicians, yet I am always accountable for my decision as to whether or not I should follow those instructions. If I were to disagree with the physician, and believe that by carrying out their orders Id be harming the patient, I have every right not to follow the orders. But I better have a whole lot of others standing behind me to say they would have done the same. You had none of this support and I regret that. The fact of the matter is we simply sometimes do not know what to do, and the landslide is a whopper of unknowns. Asking experts takes a while. I can look anybody in the eye and say we are doing the very best we know how, and I think that applies especially to you. Other than Mark Bollman, I have never seen such a committed and hard working board member as you. With all the nasty online chatter, I think it is funny that nobody seems to notice that folks are still getting home through a major disaster area. Everybody is an expert about what to do and how to do it. Best of all is the LazyBoy armchair engineer who says we should put in a ditch at the base of the toe. That would last about 15 minutes. It is important to keep in mind we did not refuse to pay our contractor. He left the room within seconds of our voting to not pay what 7 out of 10 board members felt was incorrect amount. I personally asked him to stay to receive a check. MB and GH spent the rest of the afternoon and evening trying to get MH to take a check in the amount using the calculations the board voted on. He still would not take it. We are not refusing to pay him; he is refusing to be paid. I agree with you, if you and/or Mark told him it was OK to dump where he did, then that is on the board. BUT - where he dumped has nothing to do with the board not agreeing with the amount MH wanted to be paid. He did not give us half rate on the idle machine but he could not give us a reason that the majority of the board found acceptable. Because it was an emergency? Did MH really say that?! Please read this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_gouging I hope you will not resign. This board is better with you than without you.

That is what a board meeting is all about. I asked a question at the January meeting and again at the February meeting and got no answer. The question was “where are we going to put the mud? “ NO answer both meetings. I was told that the board makes all decisions. Just maybe the intent of the board was that I would make an onsite decision and fail. I have no idea. At the January Meeting I also asked how long it would take for the board decision to make an E vote. Because when we run out of places to put mud we could E vote on a decision. No Answer? When you have two contractors with equipment running and trying to clear mud of the magnitude they were faced with totaling $5,000. Days. What was I going to tell them. “just wait there I will send an email” Questions and Answers? I ask the questions you have the answers. Isn’t that what I was told that I had to go by? I failed and in so doing so did our contractor. We both had one thing foremost in our mind . Get the road open and power back on. We accomplished that and for that accomplishment the board refused to pay our contractor. On an Issue that in my opinion the board was responsible for. Where do we put the mud? Questions and Answers. If you feel that in any way that this is all just BS and a rant on my part Please consider this my resignation. Tom Grenier To all, Just to clarify, Mark Bollman and I did meet with Mark Hopkins Saturday afternoon/evening. Although Mark Hopkins did not leave with the check that we presented to him, I would not characterize it as refusing to be paid. After meeting for some time, we simply agreed to get back together in a day or two. This will allow time to cool off, digest what was said, get legal counsel, pray about it or anything else he wants to do. I am still hopeful that we can resolve this situation and move forward. Mark Hopkins did acknowledge that he is still our road contractor and willing to keep working. To Tom, I too would ask that you not resign. Please bear with us. Some of us have worked so long with some forceful, take charge kind of Road Chairmen that it will take some retraining to make more group decisions.
