The Caper – November 2022 Edition
Mother Nature really doesn’t care about Halloween or any holiday, I’m sad to admit. So, it was a soggy Halloween night this year. Still, there were tons of kids out and the candy seemed plentiful. This also marks the transition towards the holiday season. With that brings many many community events.
Beau, in his Presidential Message, discusses the resignation of our Town Manager, Ryan Anderson. The board thanked him for his 4+ years of service. The board will now start the process of searching for a new Town Manager to lead this great community. He has much more information on this search and the transition in this month’s Caper.
Also in his message, he discusses all of the activity from the October Membership meeting. It’s budget season, so be sure to review the proposed budget in this month’s’ Caper. They also discussed updates to the beach project, final reporting, maintenance reports, and technical memo updates. They will be forming a Grants Team to apply for some grants brought to the board’s attention, in order to complete the 7 remaining community sites. Please take the time to read what else Beau has to say. There’s so much more and it’s filled with GREAT information.
