At the MAC meeting Evelyn Starman from the Executive office of Kristen Olsen told the MAC of upcoming meetings. Ruben from the County Offices told of the new MAC in Modesto-Wood Colony. The California Highway Patrol told of the volunteer program to help out in the area. The officer reminded all to report suspicious vehicles and call in any traffic problems. Stanislaus Consolidated Fire Department board member told of the resigning of Chief Daly due to personal reasons. New members to the community Thomas and Sabrina Mason, who bought the acreage next to where the John Simon’s resided, brought plans for their home but because they were not on the agenda there will be a special meeting to approve the plan. Under new business, AT&T responded to the MAC on the trees that were removed. There will be no remodeling the building but they will repair fence, paint, etc. and plant oleanders to screen the building. Also for the car show the fallen street will not be repaired in time. The curve has to be re-engineered.
