The local farmers market continues to thrive, with attendance figures reflecting its growing popularity. Melanie Keller, chair of the farmers market, reported that the inaugural event attracted 1,000 visitors, while the subsequent two events drew 800 attendees each. Keller is expected to provide further updates at the upcoming meeting in July.

In other discussions, officials addressed ongoing erosion issues at the industrial park. Efforts are underway to remediate the hillside, which has been experiencing sloughing into a nearby ravine. Progress has been made with the application of rock to stabilize the area, and updates on future improvements are anticipated.

Additionally, a report was presented regarding the East Oneida project, which is nearing completion. The project requires a final payment of approximately $20,000 to close out the budget. Officials were advised by engineers at the county commission meeting to avoid overpayment, as excess funds could lead to delays in accessing the remaining budget.
