Pat Cubbage, Acting Treasurer, stated we have $2126.00 in the Treasury as a result of Eagle Lake Residents sending in their dues.

The Proposed By-Laws were passed out to all present. John Faul read the By-Laws one by one. The By-Laws were derived from samples received from the DNR. There was discussion as to what constitutes a quorum. A suggestion of 20% was made. A hand vote was taken. A member is a family unit who has paid the $30.00 annual dues. Harold Finley stated a decision which constitutes the whole lake, ie weed control, etc. requires a 51% approval of the total people who have property around the lake.

Question was asked regarding member-at-large. Question made regarding the Board of Directors meetings. Will notification be made to the members when these meetings are held? The Meetings will not be closed. Perhaps individual associations could make meeting date known. Comment was made, the By-Laws should be an Annual Meeting discussion. It was suggested to have a proxy vote if members are not able to be present at the Annual Meeting. Mel Brown stated anything pressing to the members will be discussed by the Board of Directors.

Chuck Cubbage introduced Dr. Wally Fusilier. He gave a talk of water treatment. He stated in some cases it’s best to let Mother Nature take care of it. Eurasian Milfoil can be harvested but it is important it be removed when it floats to the top. He stated there is a Company in Allegan who can perform a quality control survey of the lake. Due to a time shortage, Dr. Fusilier’s talk was limited. President Glen Wilkinson asked if the audience would be interested in having Dr. Fusilier return to give another talk and answer the many questions people seemed to have. It was agreed Dr. Fusilier will return.
