Summary

The Board approved support for a proposed trail project and agreed to provide a county letter of support to assist fundraising. Commissioners approved the resolution and discussed funding and future changes tied to a planned sports complex.

Sam Brown and local residents described a proposed park trail and asked the board to support a resolution. Presenters said the trail would be roughly 4 feet wide and about a half‑mile to three‑quarters of a mile long; they said cleanup and site preparation would be needed but that there would be no county cost for initial work as presented.

Commissioners voted to support the resolution and to provide a county letter of support to help secure external funding. Commissioners also asked for documentation about funding sources and a written note that the route could be altered in the future if larger recreation planning (a proposed sports complex) changes the site layout. The board recorded the motion and a unanimous 5–0 vote to support the project and to prepare a letter for funders.
