I've been at the meetings, and discussion was very limited, and didn't cover "let's all pay to cut trees on private canal lots, and call it ALMOST like common ground, and throw in enjoyment on top of it.  Where is the direct quote from the governing documents, that allowed them to do it, on canals that their co-horts say the "state owns".  Can't check the minutes, because the board pulled them down. 

More to follow.  We are on our way to CT for an important meeting.  Wonder dog, Brady's confinement at home has been taken over by friends.  
HERE IS ANDERSON'S RESPONSE:

Mrs. Claveloux,

I have spoken to John Walton and several board members about your letter questioning the tree removal of tree debi in the canals following the storm last October. All of this was discussed at a regular  monthly board meeting and the vote was unanimous.

After my review, I’m left with two questions for the board for clarification.

1)   Did the board assess the private canal lot owners for their share of the expense for tree removal on their lots?  If so, why weren’t we told, and how did you assign their share, when the scope of work details canals, but not lots?

No we did not.

2)   If the board has not assessed the private canal lot owners, please reference the section, and specific language in the governing documents that allowed the board to use WPA funds, for the tree removal on private lots.

     We did not assess anyone. This was handled as storm clean up and was taken from the emergency fund. It was no different than a tree on the edge of a lot that falls onto the road or other Wedgefield common area. It was affecting navigation and enjoyment of the canal for anyone trying to use them.
