Summary

Two residents addressed the commission during the public comment portion of the April 20 meeting. Michel Kerwood spoke about a motor grader attachment. Resident Steve Minton cautioned the board and public against scams and used a historical phrase to emphasize his point.

Beware of any pyramid schemes and don’t take any wooden nickels.” The minutes do not record any response from commissioners or staff to these comments; the remarks were listed under Comments from the Public on the agenda.
