Village Notes 13

Dear Members,

Well, Spring is here and Summer is on it’s way....finally! (My hay fevertold me this.) During the last month, the board has been busy working on anumber of things. The big items are:

- file the necessary documents as required by the texas Property Code,Section 209. The enabling statute defines lSiOt as a Property OwnersAssociation and, as such, controls a substantial part of how we operate. Acopy of this document can be found on our website.

- prepare revisions to lSiOt’s bylaws as required by that code. While notyet complete, those revisions, when passed by the Board, will be submittedto the membership for a vote. hopefully that member vote will take placewithin the next 60 days,

- closely monitoring the budget, as revised, and deferring all non-critical,capital items.

Finally, we would like to thank Val and her group for their hard work inimplementing a number of changes in the restaurant operations. The processis evolving and we have high hopes for its ultimate success.

One of the Board’s shared goals is transparency across all facets of yourclub’s operation. We encourage you to attend any or all of the Board’smeetings and hope you will share your thoughts and ideas there.

regards,Wales Madden iii

LIBRARY NEWS

“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.” ― Jorge Luis Borges

His wife, Emma, must deal with the repercussions from the IRA bombing of Barrington Shipping’s newest ocean liner Duringerher maiden voyage. Fifth in the dramatic Clifton Chronicles.ENDAGERED, C.J. Box. She was gone. Joe Pickett had good reason to dislike Dallas Cates, even if he was a rodeo champion, and now he has even more—Joe’s eighteen-year-old ward, April, has run off with him. And then comes even worse news: The body of a girl has been found in a ditch along the highway—alive, but just barely, the victim of blunt force trauma. It is April, and the doctors aren’t sure if she’ll recover. Cates denies having anything to do with it—says she ran away from him, too—and there’s evidence that points to another man. But Joe knows in his gut who’s responsible. What he doesn’t know is the kind of danger he’s about to encounter. Cates is bad enough, but Cates’s family is like none Joe has ever met before. THE CINDERELLA MURDER, by Mary Higgins Clark. TV producer Laurie Moran’s new series revisits unsolved crimes by recreating them with those affected.

Twins Peter and Michael McDowell grow up in the same family and town. Dramatically different, they become bitter enemies, even as children. One leaves his peaceful hometown, but when all else fails, this prodigal son returns, 20 years later. The reunion, healing at first, exposes shattering revelations of good and evil. Which twin is good and which is evil, as the tables turn again and again?

From the bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. MY READING LIFE, by Pat Conroy. A lover of books as well as a writer of them, Conroy revisits a life of passionate reading. He includes wonderful anecdotes from his school days, moving accounts of how reading pulled him through dark times, and even lists of books that particularly influenced him at various stages of his life.

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

in 2014, lake tanglewood Emergency Medical Services exceeded over 100 medical calls throughout our service area which consists of Washington Street, East to the Armstrong County line and loop 335, South to Camp Don harrington. lake tanglewood Fire had fire calls in excess of 30 which also included “automatic aid” to randall County Fire within the same service area noted above. This is obviously many less calls than the several previous years and we thank our creator for this.

2015 will be a year when we begin looking at our options to upgrade some of our equipment due to age, failure, wear and tear, and upkeep costs. The first piece of equipment we need to replace is the most valuable resource that we have, our Fire Engine apparatus.

Our current fire engine is a 1992 model Pierce fire truck. While this piece of equipment is still in service it suffers from years of deterioration due to having water in the tank, pump, and the entire plumbing system throughout its life of service (23 years). it is now becoming quite expensive to maintain.

Cost of a NEW fire engine apparatus is in excess of $250,000.00, therefore we will be looking to trade up to a good used quality fire apparatus as the opportunity presents itself. Our current fire engine apparatus will be traded in and should fetch somewhere in the 35-$40,000 range.

We are working to raise funding for this endeavor through ambulance service income, randall County “automatic aid” funding, volunteer fund raising, and donations from lake tanglewood members.

We plan on having multiple fund raising events throughout the year including, Fourth of July and quite possibly a Fall Fish Fry.

if you would consider making a donation to this project, please make donations payable to: lake tanglewood Firetruck replacement and drop by the Corp. Office or give to any lt FirE member.

We believe that lake tanglewood Fire/ EMS provides’ a very valuable service to our community and the surrounding area. lake tanglewood Fire/EMS would like to “thANK YOu” for your continued support of our organization.

Sincerely,ltFirE/EMS members

Village Notes

As the mayor of Lake Tanglewood I would like to take this opportunity to share a few notes about the village. My intention is to periodically post village news in our monthly newsletter (although I may get absent minded and miss a month).

May general election. Since all candidates are running unopposed, The Village of Lake Tanglewood candidates will not be on the Randall County ballot. Those running unop-posed are mayor: George Moore and aldermen: Gene Wells, Greg Glenn, Jim Rogers, John Lemaster and Robert Hulsey. The aldermen and mayor will be sworn in at the first meeting after the May 9th election. They will serve a two year term.

Dates to remember. July 3rd (Fireworks), July 4th (Parade and picnic), Aug 8th (Tailgate Party).

Lake Tanglewood Police Department. Did you know the Lake Tanglewood Police Department performs Vacation House Checks for residences when members are out of town? Contact the police department (671-0256) to request a Vacation House Check. The Lake Tanglewood police will then check your property for unlocked doors and any suspicious indicators once during each patrol. Should they find an unsecure door or signs of suspicious activity, they will notify you or your emergency contact. In the first two months of 2015, the police department conducted 106 Vacation House Checks.

Village Meetings: The Board of Aldermen meet the second Monday of each month at 6:00PM in the Village Hall meeting room. Meetings are open to the public.

George F. Moore, Mayor
