MESSAGE FROM THE BURGESS (11/30/2022)
Hi Folks,
I want to give you a summary of the November 28 Rosemont meeting.
1. We received the audit from the auditor. She said our records were in excellent shape and we have a surplus of $38,000.00. The full audit is available on the website (click HERE).
2. We had a presentation from Shentel about fiber optic cable in Rosemont. They will have a franchise agreement to us by the March 2023 meeting. We will discuss it more at that time. It would be at least 2 years before this would be realized.
3. The Commission voted to increase the salaries of the Burgess and commissioners effective July 1, 2023. Burgess: $6K, Commissioners: $1.5K, and Clerk: $6K.
4. The Commission voted to appropriate $1200.00 for the eradication of the duck weed in the pond. The DNR will apply the chemical sometime in May of 2023. This chemical is safe and will be applied by licensed applicators.
5. The Commission donated $500.00 to the Brunswick Little League.
The next meeting will be March 27, 2023, at 7 pm, Merryland Park. This meeting will have a presentation of the 2023-2024 Budget and nominations for Burgess and Commissioner (4) positions. The election will be May 6, 2023.
