ROAD MAINTENENCE/POINT: Jerry Reese
There was discussion of how to best remedy the squirrel problem. It was decided that a plan would be formulated to present at the next meeting.
The ramp is in good condition. We are waiting for higher water levels to check the effectiveness of the rocks along the side.
A CALL TO THE GENERAL MEMBERSHIP. The board would appreciate the help of any members willing to move sand from the bottom of the ramp to the uphill (EAST) side of the ramp to mitigate erosion during future rains. 18” along the edge at and below the curve will suffice. Please send any questions or concerns to rdrboard@gmail.com

FIRE: Jerry Reese
Jerry will research the sale of the water truck.
Carol Bosman expressed concern about knowledge of what to do in the event of a fire. Do people have access to the fire tree? It was noted by Jerry Reese that it is not a board issue per say but we are concerned none the less. He added that after the general meeting we should have a fire meeting with information for those interested. Carol volunteered to put up a notice at the gate, on or near the bulletin board that says “Running Deer Ranch owners, in case of fire, do the following” and include the phone tree.
There was also discussion of a Knox box which would be installed at the front gate for State and CDF to use in the event of an emergency. Don Bullard said he would ask the fire inspector from the CDF about their SLO county fire requirements and if more needs to be done.
GATES/KEYS: Don Bullard
Nothing new to report regarding keys but a new sign was donated by the Oganesian family to replace the temporary “Keep gate closed” sign.
CORRESPONDENCE: Bob Boals
The Gmail account has been cleaned up to some extent and notifications of new emails are sent immediately to the secretary’s phone for quicker response. Also an Email was sent to a board member asking why their road

The Board also stated RDR maintains Aluffo rd. along with the point and no other action will be taken by the board.
