Highland Lakes

The Highland Lakes Voting Board, scheduled to meet on February 19, has been tentatively moved to Friday, February 26 at 8 pm in the Lake Room of the clubhouse. Confirmation of the next meeting date will appear here next week.

The board generally meets on the third Friday of most months to review the current activities and business of the Club. The meeting agenda always includes time allotted for reports from individual committees, a review of the Club’s current budget, correspondence, legal matters, and a discussion of old and new business. Towards the end of the meeting the floor is open to members and all who wish to share their views on any Club related topic are encouraged to speak. Time is permitted at the beginning of each meeting for members to express views on any topic scheduled for a vote that night.

Matters that will be considered at the meeting include:

• A recommendation from the Boat and Dock committee to purchase a dock for pontoon boats from Tri-State EZ Dock, to be located at Comet Row;
• Authorization to Princeton Hydro, LLC to submit a fall, 2016 lake lowering permit application for the main lake.

Attending board meetings and workshops is a great way for members to become knowledgeable about the issues that the Club faces, to gain an understanding of what various committees are working on and become acquainted with board officers and the trustees who represent the various sections of our community. Meetings are typically two to three hours in length.
