All-
Saturday, I took the action to distribute the latest "Welcome to Broadkill"
renter tickler for discussion at our next meeting. The latest version I have
is attached. Last edited in August 2022.

Hi all-
For Jim Bartlett, I definitely don't want to take on any of your Recording
Secretary duties, but since you joined a little late (which may have been my
fault for not watching my phone), I did capture notes from Saturday's meeting
(see below). I'll leave it to you to work your magic.
For everyone else that attended (in person or virtually), feel free to chime in
on anything I missed.
