Board highlights maintenance wins, volunteer needs and upcoming programs
Summary
The superintendent reported in-house trail repairs to remove trip hazards, an unsuccessful beaver-trapping effort by an outside contractor, and promoted a poetry program and Pioneer Days volunteer recruitment. Members praised the maintenance crew's quick storm response.
Board members praised the maintenance crew for in-house trail repairs that addressed raised sections and trip hazards by regrading and cold-patching. Superintendent Jeremy said the work saved the department substantial contractor costs and that the county will reimburse a partnering agency for material when appropriate.
Jeremy also updated the board on wildlife and programming: a hired vendor had spent several weeks attempting to trap beavers with no captures, and the superintendent said he will seek a different contractor. He promoted a poetry program led by his daughter and asked for volunteers for Pioneer Days. "We had, so that that's a program that we, we have somebody bring in a live reindeer... we got the reindeer cost covered," he said when summarizing seasonal program arrangements. Members thanked the crew for rapid storm cleanup and discussed outreach to local Audubon groups for volunteer support.
