After a discussion as to the effectiveness of the "No Outlet" sign posted at the entrance to White Oak from Highway 174, it was suggested that a sign "No Access - Dead End Road" be purchased and installed. Possible locations were suggested near the entrance to White Oak, near the mail boxes, or by the ponds. It was also suggested that perhaps the "No Outlet" sign be moved to another location.
The possibility of adding a light near the mail boxes was discussed. No decision was made.
Board President Mike Nelson will look into the possibility of purchasing a PO Box for the association in the bank of mail boxes in White Oak Estates and closing the Association PO Box in town.

Minutes from General Meeting of White Oak Estates HOA - May 4, 2009
The meeting was brought to order at 7:06 pm by President Bruce Nissen. He explained the goal for this year to be one of building our neighborhood fellowship. To this end he announced a post Spring get-together to be held at his home. Details will follow when his business demands let up. He also reminded us to keep our fire safe clearances of 100 feet around our buildings and the gutters along the roadways clear.
The previous three bids for road maintenance were reviewed and compared. Differences in the bids necessitated an additional rebidding of some sections. Eventually the decision was made to use the Todd bid. It is hoped that we will be able to work with this same contractor for a period of say three years to make more frequent road repairs as needed rather than waiting five years between road work as we have done in the past.
Those present were warned that if they did not want Todd scraping the edges in preparation for repairs, then they should clear the area themselves and mark anything of value before the road work begins.
The Fall meeting agenda will address the homeowners documents and by-laws with the intent of re-establishing a CC&R standard for maintenance of property value. A committee was formed to look into the wording of this document. The committee will consist of Michael Nelson, Lisa and Steven Curtis along with Bruce Nissen.
An election was held in which Mel Huber volunteered to be our treasurer and Rose Maree Hammer will serve as secretary. The term of these two offices will run for two years through May of 2011.
No further business was brought up, so the meeting adjourned at 8:15 pm and many stayed on to visit.
