• Consensus is that POA members want enforcement of POA rules.

have.

• Steve Nicholson motioned to set monthly meetings.
o Doc Kerbow seconded motion o Discussion
 Discussion revolved around the concern that if monthly meetings were voted in, meetings would need to be held no matter what, even if board members have something else going on.
