Patrol: Chair George Rogers reviewed the SBA Patrol Report for April 21, 2010 thru May 23, 2010. Mr. Rogers reported on a new regulation issued by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries that went in effect as of April 20, 2010 that immediately prohibits feeding of deer year round in Frederick, Shenandoah, Clarke, and Warren Counties and in the City of Winchester. This regulation was passed due to Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) being found in a deer killed by a hunter in January 2010 in western Frederick County, west of the City of Winchester. The feeding of deer by people may be spreading the CWD. It was noted that many of SBA’s homeowners routinely feed the deer here all year long. Mr. Rogers proposed sending a letter to the homeowners that do feed the deer to inform them of the new “no feed” regulation. It was noted that SBA would not be enforcing this new regulation, just getting the information to our homeowners. A discussion followed. The Board agreed to Mr. Rogers’ proposed letter being sent to homeowners who do feed deer; SBA Patrol can deliver the letter as they patrol. Publication and Liaison: No report.

Old Business: Discussion/Approval on renewal of Patrol Service Agreement with Bryce Resort: Patrol Chair George Rogers reported that Bryce Resort did not want to sign the patrol service agreement with SBA stating that they would prohibit the use of ATVs on all the roads owned by them; SBA Patrol would have enforced this. Mr. Rogers has requested advice from our attorney on how to handle the ATV issue. The attorney came back with wording for the service agreement that would protect SBA from being liable for harm/damage done by riding ATVs on Bryce Resort owned roads. A discussion was held. The Board requested that Mr. Rogers present to Bryce Resort the patrol service agreement with our attorney’s wording on use of ATVs and a monthly fee of $400 for SBA patrol service.
