A county resident used the public‑comment period to raise multiple concerns about a nearby commercial solar site, a neighboring property owner’s disposal of logs and limbs, and the county’s handling of funds for river landings.

The commenter said the county had “abandoned solar panels at the site next door to me” and complained about health effects from plantings and dust, saying, “Making light of such an important issue as the health of my family, our livestock, and other county residents is unacceptable.” The speaker said they were still waiting for information about available landscaping options and pricing related to removal of junipers and asked whether the solar site had been built beyond its permitted boundary.

The resident also described repeated dumping by a neighbor identified in the comment as Mr. Jeffries, reporting multiple loads of logs and limbs, dust and black smoke from burning and asking whether local ordinances restrict disposal or require perimeter fencing. The commenter said the activity had disrupted painting and outdoor drying and prevented outdoor time for parrots due to dust.

On county resources, the speaker asked about funds earmarked for river landings (referring to Brewster's Landing and the Peck River/friends group) and said they had spoken with local friends‑of groups that were unaware money had been available. The commenter suggested modest improvements at Brewster's Landing — gravel for a driveway and lot, one trash can, a kayak dock and a picnic table under the existing shelter — and invited committee members to visit and try kayaking with volunteers.

The resident also asked the committee to restore a three‑minute comment/response period at the end of meetings so speakers can receive immediate clarification instead of waiting a month for a reply.

Outcome: The comments were entered into the record for committee consideration; staff and relevant officials were invited to follow up with the resident for additional information and site visits.
