Committee Reports
Handbook Committee– Christina Lindsay
The committee feels that the Handbook Committee does not need to exist. The committee updates the handbook, which doesn’t require a full committee to accomplish that. Christina made the recommendation to remove the handbook committee moving forward. Michelle said we will publish the gmail address that people can use to communicate suggested changes to the handbook if necessary. There will also be a form on Condo and the website.
Tom Rice made a motion to approve the removal of the handbook committee. Dan Weidmaier seconded the motion. All board members- yes. Motion carried.
All the updates to the handbook language are in the process of being completed. The 2025 handbook will be online next week, and the office will print 100 copies for anyone who wants a paper copy.

Finance Committee- Terry Nibarger
The finance committee met Thursday April 10, with a large attendance. The financial documents were reviewed, no exceptions noted.

Kathy Butts, office manager, reported we are getting in a lot more money than previous years in this quarter.

The Morgan Stanley investment report shows the balance to be $1,744,598. Donita Green is a new office employee.

Over $500,000 in Dues and Assessments were collected in the first quarter.
There were no sales of lake owned lots in March. There are 3 SU lots currently listed for sale.

There is a proposed new road that would connect the harbor area out to the front. It is a proposed one way road. That is still being reviewed and will be discussed later.

The committee reviewed the policy on ACH vendor recurring charges. Condo is up and running but has issues, including lag time.

There is a request for association Lot# 591 to be considered for sale. This will require a special meeting for us to discuss it.

Past due assessments were reviewed.

A complete report can be found in the office.

Strategic Planning Committee- Dan Weidmaier
Dan Weidmaier turned the time over to Jack Bowers, chairman of the committee. The committee met for the first time via zoom this past week.

The committee identifies the needs of the community, the expectation for the future, and then they put it in practice.

A survey will be out soon for members to communicate these needs. A committee charter was also put together to maintain focus. He invited others to join this committee.

Building Committee- Robert Walton
Robert Walton turned the time over to Marvin McNabb.

The committee met twice in March, on the 11th and the 25th.

21 building permits were approved in March. Two of those permits were for new homes.

The committee would like to ask for the appointment of Tim Champaign for the building committee. Robert Walton made a motion to approve. Tom Rice seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

Fire Department- Tom Rice
Tom turned the time over to Peggy Lankford.

The fire department had 5 medical calls, 1 grass fire, and zero mutual aide.

The fire department will go on a Patriot Ride in Cameron on April 26, and the Lake Viking fire department will sponsor that.

Campground- Christina Lindsay
The time was turned over to Flint Hibler.

The septic was hooked up and active as of Friday. Seed and mulch was put in.
Christina suggested changes to the handbook language. Some sections that will reflect changes include the campground user agreement, unoccupied sites, fees, tenting rule phone number, RV ports, and special permit vehicles. The following are more specific changes.

Add language to the camping season section. We already state that overnight camp spots are on a first come first serve basis. Add that reservation to these sites can also be made by calling the manager and all reservation fees must be paid before bringing campers into the campground.

Add a new section for full time campers, living year round. Campers must enclose the RV with insulated skirting. The appearance must be approved by the campground manager. Campers cannot leave their water running to prevent freezing. Campers will be responsible for frozen hydrant costs. This is to manage utility bills during the winter months.

Remove the entire paragraph in the campground section that states only 50 amp campers will be allowed in 50 amp sites, unless there are no other spots available. They can actually pick a 30 or a 50 so we want to change that language.

Change the size of storage units in the campsite improvements. Currently it says 72” tall, 55” wide, and 32” deep. Change it to 72” tall, 72” wide, and 48” deep.
Tom Rice made a motion to approve these changes. Dan Weidmaier seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

A complete report can be found in the office.

Activity Committee- Dan Weidmaier
The time was turned over to Tina Daniel.

The committee had a meeting on April 4. The committee discussed unfinished business of power washing and painting the shelter. They decided to wait until warm weather, which will probably be in May.

The first wine event was last night. About 60 people attended. It was welcoming, quiet, and relaxing. Charcuterie boards were made, and everyone enjoyed that.
The Easter Egg hunt is next weekend. The committee plans to fill the eggs on April 17.

The Garage Sale is on April 26. It costs $10 to participate. The cutoff date to be on the map is April 18.

Cinco de Mayo will be on May 3. Everyone will bring a Mexican dish. Venmo was used for the first time, and was successful.

The Board was given a copy of the food truck rule proposal. The Board said we will post it in the discussion section on condo after the meeting. Discussed designated areas for food trucks. When they are at the community area and beach area, they should not be near the shelters so members can use the shelters. The committee would like to see the one way road to move forward. That will be discussed later as well.

A complete report can be found in the office.

Lake Committee – Robert Walton
The committee started the first inspection that generated 10 non-compliance letters that went out on April 6, and 5 more letters went out on April 11. These letters addressed brush piles as well as several lots having their lot numbers missing. Those receiving letters have 60 days to come into compliance.

Maintenance will continue to work on community areas. New signs are being ordered to replace those that are damaged or missing.

A complete report can be found in the office.

Infraction Committee – Terry Nibarger
No Update/ report. The first meeting will be later in April.

Dredge Committee- David Daniel
The time was turned over to Shawn Hepinstall.

The committee met on March 13. The committee invited contractors to come to the meeting and bid on cleaning up the ponds. Five contractors attended the meeting, and four bids came out of that. The committee feels that there are three ponds that need to be cleaned and did select a contractor, named RK Excavating. Work will start in June. A section of Lake Viking Terrace will be closed off during work. The committee anticipates work to take approximately 70-90 days. There will be barriers and signs, and hopefully 165th street will be open. The silt from the ponds will be stacked across the road with large berms to hide the silt. All of this is a budgeted expense. The committee also discussed weir adjustments.

A complete report can be found in the office.

Fishing Committee- Tom Rice
The time was turned over to Brett Bush.

Brett Bush reported the Missouri Department of Conservation shocked the lake. The water temperature was not as warm as we want, however the fish were all in good numbers. The committee wants to shock the lake again but haven’t been able to yet.

The committee would like to add Harlan Horst.

David Daniel made a motion to add Harlan Horst to the fishing committee. Tom Rice seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

The committee would like to have a fishing festival for families on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. Registration will be behind the clubhouse, starting at 6am. The entry fee would be $5 for kids, $10 for adults. Fishing will be from 8-11am. They can fish from docks or boats. They will be given a token when they register and pictures will be taken with the token, fish and ruler. There are no minimum lengths to qualify. The winners get 100% payback of the entry fees. There will be hamburgers and hotdogs afterwards, with possibly an auction or raffle, as well as giveaways for the kids. Out-of-state children who are under 16 do not need a fishing license.

The committee discussed having a Bass club instead of tournaments because they didn’t have a good turnout on tournaments.

The committee will be doing pancakes on July 5. The location will be behind the clubhouse. Details to follow.

The committee made a recommendation of no fishing on the harbor, asking for a sign to be supplied because it is dangerous. This will be discussed in the jetty rules.

Lake Viking Marina wants to put in a couple crappie beds at the end of their two docks. This may create more traffic in and out of the marina. The suggestion was made that the safety team and the office should be given GPS coordinates of the beds. The depth of the water is approximately 20-25 feet where the beds would be located. The committee suggests that if anyone has scrap donations for building crappie beds, they can place them at the maintenance barn in the southeast corner. They will accept PVC pipe or other suitable materials.
A complete report can be found in the office.

Michelle shared that when she joined the board, the priority was to bring things to the board especially when money is spent. Surveys are doing really well. She likes seeing membership participation. We will continue doing more surveys.

  1. Propose amendment to Watercraft Unlawful Riding rules for consistency with state law
    Missouri State Law
    306.126. Motorboats, regulations as to passenger seating while under way — person in water, flag required, when — slow speed required, when — penalty. 1. The operator of a motorboat shall not allow any person to ride or sit on the gunwales, decking over the bow, railing, top of seat back or decking over the back of the motorboat while under way, unless such person is inboard of adequate guards or railing provided on the motorboat to prevent a passenger from being lost overboard. As used in this section, the term “adequate guards or railing” means guards or railings having a height parameter of at least six inches but not more than eighteen inches. Nothing in this section shall be construed to mean that passengers or other persons aboard a motorboat cannot occupy the decking over the bow of the boat to moor it to a mooring buoy or to cast off from such a buoy, or for any other necessary purpose. The provisions of this section shall not apply to vessels propelled by sail or vessels propelled by jet motors or propellers operating on a stretch of waterway not created or widened by impoundment.

Current Rule
UNLAWFUL RIDING: The operator of any watercraft shall not allow any passengers to ride on the bow, gunwale, seat backs, seats on raised decks, manufacturer’s rear-facing seats on the transom, or any place where falling overboard is a risk, while the vessel is in motion. (rev 2/23)

Proposed:
UNLAWFUL RIDING: The operator of any watercraft shall not allow any passengers to ride or sit on the gunwales, decking over the bow, railing, top of seat backs, seats on raised decks, decking over the back of the watercraft or manufacturer’s rear-facing seats on the transom, or any other place where falling overboard is a risk while the vessel is in motion, unless such person is inboard of adequate guards or railing provided on the watercraft to prevent a passenger from being lost overboard. The term “adequate guards or railing” means guards or railings having a height parameter of at least six inches but not more than eighteen inches. Occupying the decking over the bow of a watercraft may be necessary to moor to or from a buoy, a dock, or any other necessary purpose as long as the watercraft is operated under trolling speed only.

Safety Manager Jason McTheeney answered questions about guards and rails, and how the proposed change would be safer. Safety is willing to focus on enforcing the 75 foot rule, where boats should be dropping speed 75 feet before the buoy. Safety doesn’t mind passengers sitting on the rear seats behind the buoy as long as they are at trolling speed. This will also be placed in the paper so members are aware.

Tom Rice made a motion to change the seatback rule. Dan Weidmaier seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes. Motion carried.

  1. Propose Harbor/Jetty Rules
    Brian suggested we post the proposed Harbor/Jetty rules on a discussion board in Condo, and then vote on it in the next meeting. Terry recommended the immediate approval of 8, 9, 10, and 11 to keep people off the rocks and prohibit swimming around the jetty.

WATER RULES AND REGULATIONS
Harbor and Jetty

The Association will set 3 buoys 25’ off of the west side of the jetty, creating a turn lane for entering into the harbor.
In addition to all other water rules, the following rules apply specifically to the jetty:
1. Watercraft must utilize the turning lane and follow the normal flow of traffic to enter the harbor.
2. Upon entering the turning lane, watercraft must proceed at trolling speed.
3. Watercraft may not congregate in the turning lane and are prohibited from using the turning lane for normal travel or other water activities.
4. Dock slips are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
5. Watercraft may not dock for more than four consecutive hours, without a break of two consecutive hours.
6. Watercraft are prohibited from docking in Safety’s assigned slip(s).
7. Watercraft exiting the harbor have the right of way to those entering. Exiting watercraft must turn right and join the flow of traffic prior to crossing the main channel.
8. No swimming or free-floating devices are allowed inside the jetty or in the turning lane.
9. No one is permitted to be on the jetty rocks for any reason.
10. No fishing is allowed from the jetty rocks.
11. No fishing is permitted within the jetty turn lane.
12. Fishing is allowed from the docks within the jetty; however, fishing must not interfere with boat traffic or docking of watercraft.
13. The lower level of the gravel lot adjacent to the docks should be kept clear for emergency vehicles. No parking will be permitted in the lower level, but members may drive into this area to drop off or pick up passengers or supplies. The driver should always remain with the vehicle so it can be moved in case of an emergency. Vehicles that are parked and abandoned in this area will be towed at the owner’s expense.

Tom Rice made a motion to adopt 8, 9, 10 & 11. Terry Nibarger seconded this motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

Michelle says the rules are for all members now and in the future, but they can be changed in the future as needed.

Approval of Financial Statements: March 2025
The motion was recommended and seconded. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

Board Discussion
Michelle said there has been discussion on the boat ramp, road, and the jetty. A survey went out about the boat ramp. 109 people voted yes and 180 people voted no. The board is not here to make decisions, but to represent membership. Survey results show members would not like another boat ramp. Janet Berry Lot# 1598 pointed out that members are not all lakefront people. 2nd tier and 3rd tier members may want the ramp. Tom shares the concern, about who voted which way and for what reason. For now we have member clarification, but we can bring it up again later if members would like us to. Jerry Goehring Lot# 51 stated everyone had a chance to vote. Felicia Roth Lot # 1922 stated some people felt they needed more info before they voted. Those votes could have been different if we had additional info about finances and more. Michelle said we can add more details to future surveys. Scott Miller Lot# 3014 pointed out how many members responded to the survey and asked how many came to the annual meeting. Tom Rice answered approximately 300. He also stated that we will use surveys more and we look forward to more people participating. Christina responded that we did read through all the comments. Michelle responded to a question regarding costs of the ramp. She stated that we do not have costs at this time. We are working to get those numbers. Jack Bowers Lot# 476 asked if member surveys are confidential. The Board replied yes they are. Linda Evens Lot# 525 asked why when we have a company offering to pay for the ramp, we aren’t allowing it. Tom stated they are not offering to pay for the ramp, just additional gravel, and Brian said they offered to donate gravel and a dock, but not concrete and construction.

Tom Rice made the motion to vote on the Building Committee Mission Statement. Robert Walton seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

The topic of Renewable Energy started. Mark Closterman from Lot# 1900 stated that there is no way to put out a fire if the solar panel catches on fire. There is no way to shut the power off. He is part of the volunteer fire dept. Terry said they do make shutoffs for solar panels.

Tom says we should probably revise the rules then. Janet VanWye Lot# 391, who is on the Building Committee, stated the part that was written is for standalone solar panels. If someone chooses to put it on their house, then that is on them. It isn’t about safety, it is about people wanting the technology, and we need to write a rule before people put in huge solar panels in their back yard.
Tom asked if we pass the rule as written, can Janet come back with an amendment to include safety on houses. Janet said yes. Christina asked if there are current building permit requests. Janet said yes. David Daniel doesn’t want to put anything in place right now. Tom said don’t issue a building permit on it yet. Michelle stated the board agrees that the standup ones are a no. The board wants to look at the safety of them on a roof, and see if we need a rule that it needs a shutoff capability. Christina recommended removing the first sentence in the proposed rule. Douglas Poole Lot# 3152 stated that the NEC has rules that we should follow. Tom asked if they address safety for the fire department and Dan said he can track that down. Peggy Langford asked to please read what we will be adopting. The Board agreed that free standing solar panels will not be approved at this time, and agreed to remove the first sentence which allowed solar panels on rooftops.

Renewable Energy Sources

Solar panels/arrays can be mounted to a roof or side wall of a home.

Solar panels mounted on risers from the ground will not be approved.

Geothermal Arrays and Wells will be allowed as long as all easements/setbacks are adhered to. No well may be closer than 50 feet to the water.

Wind turbines are not allowed.

This would be placed in the Lake Viking Handbook on pg. 27, just before the paragraph “Homes Built On-Site.” (Rev (3/25)

Justification:
In the past, Missouri HOA’s could prevent homeowners from installing solar panels due to concerns about their appearance or the lack of uniformity within a neighborhood. But with Missouri’s new solar panel law for HOAS in full effect, they can no longer forbid homeowners from installing rooftop solar. They can still prevent the installation of ground-mounted solar arrays, and other aspects of the system may be subject to restrictions, but the new law allows all residents of HOAs to take advantage of cost- effective, reliable solar power.

Tom Rice made a motion that we adopt the rule as read, minus the 1st sentence. Dan Weidmaier seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

Rules for Community Area Usage was discussed. The Board asked if there were any additional concerns from the proposal. Christina read the proposed rule. Terry stated that we should use broader wording when talking about the usage of the community area. Tom stated we are trying to overcome commercial activity, a private person is not commercial. For clarity we may include members, but not necessarily. Terry stated that 50 feet to the shore is too close. Tom asked should it be changed to 75 feet. Michelle gave a backstory. She said outside vendors wanted to install docks, currently if you are a member and you want to hire an outside vendor to build your dock and launch it off your lot, if your lot is the correct size, you can do that. However not all lots have the correct size or water depth. So they have to purchase a dock from the marina or neighbor or friend within the lake to build a dock on their lot and launch it off their property. The potential of the lake could increase revenue due to a permit to launch docks and free up commerce activity at the lake and not inhibit members of only using certain vendors. This ties back to the boat ramp. There could be a need for a boat ramp in the future. Janet Vanwye Lot# 391 stated the marina will no longer allow members to float components of docks in through that ramp. Michelle said they never have. Tom confirmed they didn’t let him.

Michelle started the topic of food trucks. As president I don’t care where they are located. I don’t want to force them down below, I would rather have first come first serve. Brian Rich Lot# 1 asked if the road is just for the food trucks. Michelle stated it is not specific for food trucks. It has been a long standing issue. She also thinks the fence around the playground should absolutely be passed, regardless of the road. Mr. Rich asked what the original cost of the jetty was, what was its estimate, and where is it at now? Michelle answered that the answer is in the office and has been published before. Mr. Rich’s concern is the road was just fine until we added the jetty. Michelle suggested that we could put out a survey and get membership opinions. Eric Hoel Lot #2 stated months ago we were told we won’t connect the road, but now we’re discussing it. If it is not on the agenda, how do members know? Also, is everything put in the minutes and published? Because how else do members know? Dan replied that the minutes are difficult when people are talking over each other. He also said there are safety concerns with the food trucks. Getting down there and turning around is almost impossible. For transparency, the activities committee would like to survey and see if it is even possible. The Board wants the members to have a voice, so no decision has been made about the road. The Board wants to wait for the members’ opinions, or else it would have been done already. Mr. Hoel asked how much money we will spend. Dan stated that we don’t know. Steve Roberts Lot# 3150 asked if it is paved or gravel. That answer has not been determined yet. Michelle stated we are trying to address other amenities before we spend money on new amenities. Our overall thing is to get the members direction on where they want us to spend money. Dan stated we like surveys so we can know what members want before we can get quotes. Piper Sparks Lot# 583 wanted to know if the surveys will indicate cost, as well as if there is something in the budget, or do we need to cut something in the budget if it is not approved. Randall Davidson Lot# 1222 asked if it would come off East Main St. The Board responded that it hasn’t been decided yet. A member then expressed concern that gravel will bring dust, which may be a problem for the pool filter. Dan commented the first step is the survey, and then we can proceed with getting bids. Michelle wanted members to know that the board is not secretly voting on things. We are trying to do this collectively as a community. Robert commented that he brought it up to the audience at the last board meeting about what they would think if we connected the road. The audience seemed to like the idea of the one way. Dan stated that surveys on Condo Control are a new tool, but we are working with it to get all the information out to the members. That way if something is missed in minutes, members still have info. Mr. Hoel stated that his mailbox is right next to the proposed road. The road will create a safety issue for his and his neighbor’s children. He would like to purchase a slow down sign if needed. Tom stated the food trucks are in the hot sun on the top. We have shade down below. It would be more enjoyable for families to visit the food truck where there is shade and cool breeze off the lake. Mr. Rich responded some food trucks don’t even want to be down there, they want local Gallatin people to come out. Mr. Rich asked the Board to slow this down before we move on anything. Michelle stated we are slowing down and wanting members’ opinions regarding the food truck location.

Shawn Hepinstall Lot# 543 revisited the Community Area 23 discussion and brought up commercial activity. He asked how many docks do we have permit requests for. The answer is 10-12 dock requests. He also asked how many businesses have asked for access to use that. The answer is one. Shawn continued that the lot is designated as a special use lot which means we would have to change it to commercial use. Michelle agreed. Tom stated we are technically in violation of allowing food trucks as well. We don’t want to only focus on docks. We are trying to address many areas. Shawn continued by saying if we do have a launch down there, how will it be secured? When we look at launching, do we have liability insurance? Where does it end? Why don’t we put this out as a survey? Michelle commented that she appreciates the feedback. We will do our best to ask smarter and better questions on surveys. Mr. Closterman pointed out that the area goes to the water plant, and we don’t want anything leaking or messing with the water. It’s one thing to put a dock in, but be careful about water. Chad Watson Lot# 2700 asked what rules have been changed in regard to food trucks? Tom answered that technically food trucks are in violation but we don’t enforce it. The Board decided that they would not vote on everything until after the surveys come back, but they will vote on some. Michelle read the food truck rules and stated they are trying to pass the vote to allow the food trucks in the community area.

Community Area Usage

2024 Handbook (online), Building Rules pg. 39 states:

Community areas shall not be used for commercial business. This includes but is not limited to the construction of a dock or any other structure by a property owner or their contractor.

The Building Committee recommends the following Rule Change:

Community areas shall not be used for any type of commercial business with the exception of food vendors and Community Area 23 approved for dock contractors.

We recommend using CA 23 at the West side of the dam for launching docks.
Recommended Guidelines:

Community area CA 23 has been designated as a staging area for waterfront owners without adequate shoreline access to have outside companies float in the components of a dock to be assembled on their lot. The contracting company will be required to work closely with the Safety Patrol to coordinate access.

Contractors must contact Safety (660-322-9001 option 1) to have their boat hot washed, prior to unloading any components, to prevent the lake from being exposed to Zebra Mussels – any contractor failing to comply will receive a $5000 fine and have all privileges revoked. Safety will give lake access to the contractor via the current boat ramp.

• This community area may only be used for this purpose Monday – Thursday between the hours of 8 AM to 4 PM. No holiday or overnight use is allowed.

• CA 23 Restrictions: All components must be kept 50’ away from the spillway and 10’ away from the side property line.

• Safety will take a picture of the community area prior to unloading.

• Preassembled components can be slid into the lake at this location.

• The base frame may be assembled and the boat lift installed in the water at the CA and floated to the destination lot for the roof, flooring, and storage area to be added.

• The contractor is responsible for making sure all trash/debris is cleaned from the area and that there is no damage to the shoreline or parking area.

• Safety will take a picture of the area when all components are in the water to ensure there is no damage to the community area. Damage fees will be accessed to the property owner

Tom made a motion to approve the exception for food trucks to use community areas. Dan seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.
The topic of chickens started. Kristy Buyle Lot# 65 asked if we are voting to approve chickens. The board answered that we have to approve them, it is state law. Michelle read the chicken rules.

Robert made a motion to accept the rules. Tom seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.

Michelle read Chicken coop building permit rules. Mrs. Roth clarified if when it comes to building materials, can we use better materials than pressure treated lumber? The board agreed to change the vocabulary to read just Lumber.

Tom Rice made a motion to pass. Terry Nibarger seconded the motion. All Board Members- yes, motion carried.
