Summary

Lauren Wheeler said Litchfield Public Works declined a request for regular mowing; Morris has been mowing biweekly and Commissioner Terry Connor reported using personal equipment and replacing a sold mower. The commission discussed maintenance ahead of events.

Lauren Wheeler told the commission she contacted Raz at Litchfield Public Works about regular mowing assistance and was informed that public-works could not provide ongoing help. She then contacted another individual named Denise to explore alternatives. Minutes note Litchfield raked the beach once before the season, Morris has mowed every other week, and Commissioner Terry Connor has used his personal mower and raked in advance of the ski show.

Under "old business," the minutes record that Terry sold the old Sandy Beach mower on Facebook Marketplace for $700, bought a replacement mower for $500 and delivered $200 cash to Treasurer Kathy VanOrmer. Terry also repaired an old cart; Lara Norris will perform an end-of-season inventory of beach equipment.
