Rodney Votaw discussed that Kati Morgan, a home builder was wanting to purchase 8 to 9 water meters for a 95 acre tract of land not in our CCN. Discussion followed on developer-subdivision rules and a decision was made to mail a packet to her and ask her to attend the next Regular Board Meeting. The Board discussed options, but they had mixed feelings. Rodney also asked, if a developer in our CCN asked about purchasing water meters what is protocol? He was told to give them the developer-subdivision packet and to come to a Board meeting. Sandra Chilcutt asked, if anyone had read the article in The Reporter on Jim Conkwright speaking to the commissioners court? Several of the directors said, they had, but it seemed different than what he discussed with our Board.
