Public Hearing on Bridge Replacement Project

A PUBLIC HEARING regarding the bridge replacement project is scheduled for Saturday, July 24th, 7 PM, at the Grapeview Firehall. The Club has initiated an application with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for a loan to finance the bridge replacement project. The USDA requires the applicant to inform the general public of the proposed project. Bridge Commissioner, Roger Hansen, will provide an overview of the physical aspects of the project as presented at the June Informational Member Meeting and the July Annual Member Meeting. This meeting will give the citizenry an opportunity to become acquainted with the proposed project and to comment and ask questions. (7/20/10)

Board Elections

At the 2010 annual membership meeting, Gary Longmire, Rich Harder, and Larry Grumme were elected to full terms. In July, before the meeting, Water Commissioner Daryl Axelson resigned from the Board. That position is currently vacant. The Board thanks Daryl for his service!

See Board Minutes for the 2010-2011 Board members and assignments. (7/14/10)

8th Annual Treasure Island Fun Run/Walk

The 8th Annual Treasure Island Fun Run/Walk will be Saturday, July 3rd at 11:00 am. For more information:

Bridge Closure Extended to March 6th

The contractor ran into some problems on March 4th and will need more time to complete their work. The bridge will need to be closed again on Saturday, March 6 from 8:30 AM to about 12:30 PM. The Board appreciates everyone's patience. (3/5/10)

Bridge Closure March 4th and 5th

The bridge will be closed from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM on Thursday, March 4 and Friday, March 5. The closure is to allow equipment to be stationed on the bridge to do borings for analysis of the subsurface under the bridge. (2/26/10)

Bridge Repairs Complete

At the Special Membership Meeting held November 14, bridge commissioner Roger Hansen announced that this fall's bridge repairs are complete. Pictures of the barge and crane that were a fixture in the Grapeview Channel for the last two months can be seen on the Bridge Repair photo page. The repairs were made by Quigg Brothers Construction of Aberdeen, WA. Roger stressed that the repairs are temporary and can only be expected to extend the life of the structural elements that were repaired by 5 to 10 years. The repair technique used was to "sister in" new caps and pilings; that is, to insert them alongside the defective units but not to actually remove the old ones. The bridge will continue to have annual inspections. New load limits will be posted as soon as they are available. For more on the repairs, see the September newsletter. (11/16/09)

Treasure Island Blog Up and Running

bullet www.treasureislandcountryclub.wordpress.com

The blog is a place to discuss matters related to our beautiful island. The blog has been set up so that anyone can comment on its posts. However, to post new content you need to be a blog author. See the blog's About page for details on becoming an author.

There is a link to the blog at the bottom of the Treasure Island Country Club web site home page. (11/15/09)

Water Tank To Be Put Back in Service

Following a soak period and a review of water sampling tests, the state's Office of Drinking Water has given Treasure Island the green light to put the water tank back online. Some residents may experience a drop in water pressure as we return to using the normal distribution system. The "Please Conserve Water" banner will be taken down. However, the water distribution team asks you to continue to use island water wisely and effectively. (11/15/09)

Treasure Island Blog

Dan Poole and the webmaster are setting up a blog where members can share island news with each other. For now, we want to see what interest there is in supporting a blog. If you want to be part of a team to make this work, send an e-mail to the webmaster. Please include your e-mail address and telephone number so we can get right back to you. (11/7/09)

New Board Member

Larry Grumme was appointed to the Board of Trustees at a Special Board Meeting held on October 24, 2009. He replaces Rocky Brown, who resigned in October. The Board thanks Rocky for her outstanding service. Mr. Grumme will serve as Dock Commissioner. (11/3/09)

Water Tank Testing Postponed

Testing of the water in the newly recoated water tank has been postponed from 11/2/09 to 11/9/09. This week the tank will be drained and refilled for a second soaking period. If the water samples taken next week are satisfactory, the water distribution team expects to put the tank back in service within a few days of receiving the results. (11/2/09)

Special Membership Meeting 11/14

A Special Meeting of the Members of Treasure Island Country Club will be held at 10:00 AM on Saturday, November 14, 2009, at the Grapeview Fire Hall. To prepare for the meeting, please review the following documents:

Water Tank Update

The tank has been painted and Long Painting has de-mobilized.

On October 16th Nicholson Drilling replaced the float switches in the tank.

The next steps are to allow the paint to cure for 7 days, which started on October 15th. On October 22nd, we will start our process of putting the tank back online. This will involve:

  1. Back-flushing the lines going into and out of the tank (Oct. 22nd).
  2. Cleaning any residual debris out of the tank (Oct. 22nd - Oct. 23rd).
  3. Filling the tank to the float switch stops (Oct. 23rd - Oct 24th).
  4. Letting the tank soak for up to 7 days (Oct 24th - Oct 30th).
  5. Taking water samples (Oct. 30th).
  6. If the samples come back good, the tank will be put back into service. (10/20/09)

No Bridge Closures Scheduled

No bridge closures are scheduled for the remainder of the bridge repairs currently being done by Quigg Brothers construction. (10/8/09)

Water Tank Painting Starts September 28

The water tank will be painted during the period September 28 to October 17. See the September Newsletter for more details. Please conserve water as much as possible during this period to mimimize the amount of extra time the well pumps need to run to keep up with demand. (9/25/09)

Bridge Closure 9/16/09

The bridge will be closed Wednesday, 9/16/09 from 7:45 AM to 10:45 AM. For more on the bridge repairs see the September Newsletter. (9/12/09)

(2/22/2009)

Web Site Update

Older web site material has been moved to an Archive page. (2/22/2009)

Garbage

We don’t have a problem with neighbors throwing garbage or yard waste onto their neighbor’s property, but throwing it in the water yields the same result! Several members have complained about the amounts of food-generated garbage and yard waste washing up on their beaches.

According to Mason County Motorboat Ordinance No 83-88, it is unlawful to dump or throw any oil, garbage, ashes, brush, roots, lawn trimmings, etc. (there’s a long list) in or upon navigable water or on the shores so that by any means the item or substance may be washed into the water. This is called dumping debris and a person can be cited and fined for this offense.

Please be considerate of your neighbors, the environment, and the boaters, water skiers, etc. when disposing of your trash.

Speaking of trash....litter on the float at the dock facility is beginning to be a problem. Please take your trash with you when you leave the facility.

Animal Control

For many years, roaming dogs were a constant problem here on the island. There are always exceptions, but in general, we seem to have solved that problem. On behalf of all the neighbors who had to deal with the loose dogs, we thank everyone who confines their pet to their own property and walks them on a leash. And we thank everyone who makes sure their guests do the same!

Another dog-related issue that is not solved is the considerable amount of excrement on the roadsides. Not only does this create an unhealthy condition for both people and their pets, it has also been noted as a possible factor in the increasing number of rat sightings. Mowing and weedeating our roadsides should not be such a disgusting job! PLEASE pay closer attention to cleaning up after your pets and be sure your guests do the same.

Non-residents are often seen walking around the island with their dogs. Most of them honor our leash law, but do they clean up after their pets? It is only with everybody’s help that we can solve this problem. If you see someone walking their pet and leaving us a gift, say something to them!

Parking

Parking on the road shoulders is not permitted! During the summer months this isn’t always possible. To allow enough room for emergency vehicles to get through, instruct guests to park on one side of the roadway only. Members are encouraged to use the upper dock area to park their empty boat trailers while their boat is in use.
