Summary

Staff reported a decline in seasonal noise‑variance requests and that variance fees came in roughly as expected; the department also published a newsletter highlighting programs and new administrative support staff.

Dr. Seeglass told the board that noise‑variance requests are declining with cooler weather and that variance fee revenue “came in right about where we thought we would — between $600 and $800,” for the season.

Staff said some applicants initially struggled to submit complete date information needed for invoices and variances, but the department has worked to smooth that process. The item was presented as an operational update; no board action was requested.

On outreach, staff thanked Megan for the department newsletter and introduced Allison, the 0.5 FTE administrative support specialist hired earlier in the year. The newsletter highlights access to services (including a return to sending birth postcards) and other programs the department offers.

No formal motions were associated with either item; both were reported as informational updates.
