The board reviewed a low bid of $5,600 for replacing the community garden fence and installing a deer fence at Eastwood Preserve and discussed fencing design options, including double or triple railing along Monera's backyard to deter passage. The community garden at Eastwood is fully subscribed with many new or novice participants, and staff reported positive feedback about orientation and support (water, soil).

No procurement motion or award was recorded in the minutes; staff were asked to return with procurement recommendations and repair timelines.
