Nate led the prayer.

The November 2022 minutes were the next order of business. Nate pointed out that executive session conversation should not go on the regular minutes and is not for the public and should be taken out before published or sending out. Judy said she always remove the executive minutes before posting it on the website.

Robert asked if there is anything else. Judy asked for two changes to the minutes. That on page 2, “Louis said yes lots are R20 and qualify and complies with the ordinances” should be changed to “Louis said the lots are R20 and qualify and complies with the ordinances”. Also asked for “Louis explains that is not usually to have two septic fields on one lot”. It should be “Louis explains that is not unusual to have two septic fields on one lot.”

On motion by William, and seconded by Kaye, the minutes were approved unanimously with the new changes.

On motion by Kaye, and seconded by William, the November financial report was approved unanimously.
