Dennis welcomed the homeowners and guests. The annual meeting was delayed for our Guest Speaker. Mr. Guy Liebmann, our Oklahoma City Councilperson, was present and he provided updated information on the road construction on Santa Fe and Western. Maps of the current and proposed construction areas were presented at the meeting. Mr. Liebmann commented that the intersection of Memorial Road and Pennsylvania was in need of about $4 million in repairs. The businesses within 1 mile of the intersection generate $800 million in business. The Oklahoma City sales taxes are down 4% from a year ago and the Oklahoma County taxes are up 5%. There are not enough funds available to repair an intersection that provides access to these tax generating businesses. Mr. Liebmann also commented on the quality of the water in OKC. EPA has mandated that water contain less than 10 Parts per Million of arsenic. OKC contains none and other cities in the Metro area are scrambling to reduce their levels. Most cities like Edmond, El Reno, and others that use well water are currently not below the mandated level. The past Lake Hefner algae growth has been reduced due in part to a huge effort OKC has spent to treat the lake with Ozone. This significantly reduces the growth potential of the algae.
