Resident raises concerns about fire-mitigation work; board says work is on district property and follows state standards
Summary
Resident Nancy Lowe asked the board to clarify vegetation removal and trail issues related to nearby fire-mitigation work. The board said the work is on district-owned property, follows state standards and directed staff to give Ms. Lowe the project manager's contact information.
Resident Nancy Lowe addressed the Perry Park Metropolitan District Board on July 2 with concerns about fire mitigation work near Delaware, citing vegetation removal, dead trees, informal trails and possible future work near Cheyenne Drive and Inca.
According to the minutes, the Board explained that mitigation work is being conducted on District-owned property in accordance with state standards and that the District does not maintain formal trails in the area. The Board directed staff to provide Ms. Lowe with contact information for the fire mitigation project manager, Randy Johnson, so she can discuss the work and raise specific concerns.
The exchange is recorded in the minutes as public comment; no formal action or vote was taken on the mitigation work itself during the special meeting. The minutes indicate the Board will respond through staff and the designated project manager rather than by adopting immediate changes at the meeting.
The Board’s direction—providing Ms. Lowe with the project manager’s contact information—constitutes the immediate follow-up. Residents seeking details about the mitigation project or plans for vegetation management near Delaware, Cheyenne Drive and Inca should contact district staff for project schedules and scope.
