Bev, Body Shots and Booty Call

Missed the Chili (spelled right?) Challenge Extravaganza last night, had a prior engagement with Mr/Mrs Bubba.  Didn't see the boys making any grinder calls in the vicinity, so assume everything came out all right at the CC.  (BTW, Pepcid AC is one fine product)(Do beans belong in chili/chilli, I vote yes).

Not much else happening this coming week until Thursday when Municipal Court is in session.  Ms Jennifer Payne (The Maligned Trespasser) will face the music in front of an imported judge for the occasion.  You can count on many media types being present, especially if it is a slow news day.  You can also bet one particular news reporter will be on the scene...but then that is another story.  So stay tuned, especially if you do not know what a body shot is, I will post the instructional manual with pics, but Bev will not be a model...you will just have to wait and see.

Phase Two

The Unofficial Official Minutes of the WLIC Annual Meeting

Architect and resident Steve Cantrell presented an overview of Phase Two, C Point renovation project:

• Will commence this Spring with completion by "the beginning of the boating season".  
• Includes the demolition and construction of the bathrooms:
• Three men's, three women's stalls, two stainless sinks each, plus one "family" facility for baby changing.
•  Two showers outside.
• Design complimentary to the Pavillion.
• Utilities to be underground.Ease of opening/closing if Pavilion used for an event during winter.
• The elevation of the bathroom will be lowered 3 feet from current.
• The road will no longer create an "island" around bathroom but rather route just on one side, making access from the beach w/o crossing road.
• 66 total marked parking spots to compliment the two lane road in/out.
• "No special assessment", financed through normal "cash flow". 

I believe a rendering of the new structure is @ City Hall.

WLIC Annual Meeting

Official Unofficial Minutes of the WLIC Annual Meeting

• Tanya Finn was announced as the 2011 Joseph Sherman Community Service Award winner.
• Tom Urbaniak was elected to the Board, Baum, Genske, Myers re-elected. 

BOA Cancelled, Fear of Occupy WL Overcomes Board

No BOA tonight, and what a shame, Kathy and I were ready to don the cuffs to protest all the fat cats @ WL.  Okay, so the cancellation was of a more practical nature (unfounded rumor concerning Jerry's pheasant hunting trip) and there will be a three for one meeting on the 14th of November to 1) have the monthly BOA, 2) hold a hearing on the water/grinder rate increase, 3) conduct a hearing on the 2012 budget.  The festivities are scheduled to kick off @ 6PM. 

The rate increase is a done deal, the vote a mere formality...ditto budget for 2012, walking the straight and narrow of a city that lives on the margin.
