Board approves deer-archery hunt at Tosanak, backs Google water-efficiency grant letter of intent
Summary
The board designated Tosanak Recreation Area as a Deer Management Zone for 2026 and approved securing tags through the conservation board; it also authorized a letter of intent to apply for a Google Water Efficiency and Quality Grant and discussed a fireworks-permit request that would require an applicant to attend a meeting.
The Floyd County Conservation Board approved designating Tosanak Recreation Area as a Deer Management Zone for 2026 and authorized staff to secure tags and manage the hunt under conservation control.
Member Jesse Frerichs moved to proceed with securing tags for an archery deer hunt at Tosanak; member Peter (Pete) Kloberdanz seconded and the motion carried 5-0. The minutes state that conservation staff would retain control of the hunt and that tags would be obtained through the board rather than from neighboring properties.
The board also voted to prepare a letter of intent to apply for a Google Water Efficiency and Quality Grant. Pete moved to prepare the letter of intent and Jesse seconded; the motion passed 5-0.
A resident visited the courthouse to request a fireworks permit for use on conservation property. The board did not issue a permit at the meeting and said the resident must appear at a board meeting to request consideration; the minutes note the board would consider such a permit only if the applicant attends and the board deliberates the request.
These items were taken as new business and approved by majority vote; the board did not discuss specific grant-dollar amounts or set operational dates for the hunt in the minutes.
