Council opts to delay prescribed burn until fall
Summary
Council members agreed to postpone the park prescribed burn because grass is still green; they plan to revisit burning in the fall when vegetation is dormant.
Council members discussed the town's planned prescribed burn and concluded that burning green grass would be ineffective, recommending postponement. "Because burning green stuff just usually doesn't work," a member said, and participants agreed to defer the burn until grasses turn brown in the fall.
Members also considered alternatives such as coordinating with aquatic design and scheduling burns when conditions are appropriate; no formal motion was made to authorize burns now, and the item remains old business to revisit later in the year.
