Resident raises concern after ~18 mature trees were cut at Bryant's Creek Park
Loading...
Summary
A resident told commissioners that about 18 mature trees were cut at Bryant's Creek Park on March 18 and asked the board to comment; the transcript records the report but no formal response was recorded in the minutes.
During the public-comment portion of the April 6 meeting, resident John Kniola reported that on March 18 roughly 18 mature trees were cut down at Bryant's Creek Park. Kniola said he had spoken with several people who believed the commissioners own the property and asked if the commissioners had any comment.
The meeting record includes the report but does not record a substantive response or a commitment to action from commissioners in the minutes. The transcript does not specify who conducted the tree removal, whether a permit was obtained, or whether the property is owned by the county or another entity; Kniola said people he spoke with believed the commissioners owned the park.
Because the transcript does not record follow-up direction or ownership confirmation, county residents who want clarity about park management or tree-removal procedures should contact county administration or the highway department for records and next steps. The board adjourned without a recorded response to the concern in the meeting minutes.
