Council allows Eagle Scout to install life-saving equipment at Reservoir 3
Summary
An Eagle Scout project to install rescue equipment — a life ring and rescue lines — at Reservoir 3 received council approval to proceed; the scout said work should finish within two weeks.
Council voted to allow an Eagle Scout to install safety equipment at Reservoir 3, including a life ring and four rescue lines to be stationed near the dock.
During public comment, the student identified themselves as the project lead and described the equipment and its intended use for water-rescue situations and ice-season rescues. "My name is Avey Mongold," the commenter said while spelling the name for the record. The presenter said the project would place a throw ring near the dock and four rescue lines around the reservoir to help rescuers assist without entering the water or ice.
Council made a motion to allow the described items to be added at Reservoir 3; the motion passed on roll call. The presenter said the project was planned to be finished within two weeks and thanked council for the allowance.
Council did not place other conditions on the installation in the recorded discussion; staff follow-up on placement and any long-term maintenance responsibilities was not specified during the meeting.
