Voter notice, property debris and county response: supervisors direct cleanup
Summary
A citizen reminded the public about the Oct. 7 city primary and absentee voting; another resident described overgrown county property and debris placed at curbside, and the board voted to have county staff remove the material.
During the public‑comment period, a community member identified as Otter Scott told the board the city primary is Oct. 7 and that in‑person absentee voting in the auditor's office will begin the next day. The chair thanked Scott and noted the county will proceed with election-related processes.
A second speaker, Mr. Williams, described a parcel of county-owned, overgrown land adjacent to his residential lot. He said he hired a handyman to remove young trees and brush, placed the debris at the curbside for county pickup and expected county equipment to remove it because the debris originated on county property. Williams said he had attempted to contact a county staffer (Kenny Schmidt) without success and provided photos to the board. The board moved to have the debris removed and the motion passed 5–0.
The chair recorded the action as a directive to have county services remove the curbside debris; no timetable beyond 'we'll get it off here in the street' was recorded on the minutes.
