Selectboard reviews LERA incident reports, staff defends use of deterrent spotlight
Summary
The Selectboard reviewed incident reports from Lake Eden Rec Area including a child left unrestrained in a vehicle hatch that triggered police, camper behavior complaints, and a spotlight deterrent staff said was not a camera; staff confirmed the device is a spotlight and said it will be removed briefly for inspection.
The board reviewed several incident reports from Lake Eden Rec Area (LERA). Minutes record that a child was left unrestrained in the back hatch area of a vehicle, which resulted in police being called. Board members also heard complaints from a camper about another camper driving behind lots and concerns about the overflow of kayak storage and season-pass holders storing gear.
Staff addressed questions about a device on the corner of the office building that some believed to be a camera. Melissa Morin said she would remove the device in the morning to check it; Pam Uhlendorff explained it is a look-alike with a spotlight that she installed years earlier to deter misbehavior and to light early-morning paths to the showers and bathrooms. Johnna later returned with the device and staff confirmed it is a spotlight.
