Alderman Richmond reported nothing out of the ordinary for the departmental General Fund and Utility Fund revenues and expenses for the month of February, 2024.

Mayor Hostetler gave an update of ongoing Village activities: We are still in Stage 2 Water irrigation phase. This only allows residents to irrigate once per week. Speaking of that, in the last several months, we have sent approximately 40 warning letters to residents who are watering more than once a week and we have sent out 14 citations, some of which are for multiple days of violation. Each violation day is a $500 fine maximum.

You might have heard about the individuals that destroyed several BPOA cameras in the park. They have been caught and have given the BPOA money to fix or replace the cameras. Thanks to Deputy Cerrillo for his efforts to make this work.

Nothing new on Travis Club, the new subdivision east of Thurmond Bend Road except the significant destruction of trees via Hydroax. Drive out Siesta Shores Drive to view the work done.

We are in the middle of the prohibition against cutting oak trees. This goes until July 1.
