After the Snyder's Lake Association negotiated a lower price, the board amended the proposed payment from $4,500 to $3,000 and approved Resolution 2025-03-24 to treat Snyders Lake; residents urged inspection of boats to limit reintroduction of weeds.

Supervisor Bott moved to amend the dollar amount in Resolution 2025-03-24 from $4,500 to $3,000 after the Snyder's Lake Association negotiated a better price, and the board approved the amendment and the payment unanimously. Bott said the association "went back and negotiated a better price for the treatment," leading to the lower payment amount.

Residents raised concerns that invasive weeds reappear, and Mike Martinez suggested that weeds are brought in by boats and that "they need to have someone checking each boat that is launched." The board noted long-term treatment plans and potential grant sources; Councilperson Gordon reminded members that federal funding opportunities exist for clean-water work.
