Annual Meeting Recap
Posted April 19, 2021
First, we want to thank everyone that showed up for the annual meeting and followed the social distancing guidelines for the church. Next we want to thank Pastor Stephanie DeLong and the St. Peters UCC Consistory for allowing us to use the church for our meeting. Everything worked great and we appreciate your hospitality.
To recap the meeting, the board provided an overview of what was accomplished last year and plans for this year. Next we covered the reasons why the board recommended a dues increase to $348/year, notably the raise in minimum wage from $7.70 in 2018 to $11.15 in January and the increase in the cost of road resurfacing and building materials. The attendees approved the proposal by a vote of 34-1.
Next, we covered the greenspace discussion, whereby the board was seeking approval to swap Association-owned taxed property for untaxed Association-owned property next to a member's existing property and allow that member to buy that property. The proposal was approved with the following conditions--the property can only be sold to an existing member and must be adjacent to or across the street from the existing member's property, and be on a paved road; the property will be sold at market cost; and the owners of the property subject to sale have the right to approve or reject the sale. This measure was passed unanimously.
Lastly, for those of you with houses, we have the opportunity to purchase a reflective address plate with the Peaceful Valley logo as reported at the meeting for under $25.00 The actual price is $17. The signs are 18' tall by 6" wide and is printed on both sides with highly reflective numbers. If you'd like to order one, please contact the PVPOA office.

Groundhog Day, Peaceful Valley Style Update
Posted April 4, 2021
We want to give a special thank you to the Owensville Anglers' Association for their assistance in helping us find several dozen groundhog burrows on the backside of the dam. The Anglers, accompanied by PVPOA board members and their members, took small survey flags to mark the burrows so we can go back later and backfill them. Thanks again to all the volunteers!!
