Summary
Board members discussed a possible donation of land owned by Don Tietz south of the Kossuth County Fairgrounds in Cresco Township, including access limitations from Highway 169 and parking constraints; Director Stumme was asked to contact the owner for more information.
The Kossuth County Conservation Board discussed a potential donation of land south of the Kossuth County Fairgrounds on Sept. 8 and directed staff to seek additional information from the owner.
Board members considered a tract owned by Don Tietz in Sections 11 and 14 of Cresco Township and discussed recreational uses, how the fair board currently uses portions of the property, limited public access from Highway 169, and the lack of parking at the site. The board discussed dividing the parcel to identify areas appropriate for conservation ownership and directed Director Stumme to contact the owner or property managers to gather more information.
No formal motion to accept or reject a donation was made during the meeting; the board recorded only direction for staff follow-up.
