The record regarding the HDC’s review of work permits submitted by the residents of Lots 5, 6 & 12 in the Rolling Ridge subdivision will be reviewed and settled at the August 4th regular council meeting. An agreement has been reached that a resolution will be introduced and voted on that provides for a review process for the houses, including the environmental settings.

The chair will send a letter to Mr. Davila regarding a maintenance schedule for Rolling Ridge.
