Brett mentioned the 460th is rough where the new gravel was added just north of 150th st.

Todd reported that a resident on 460th Ave was frustrated with his Wild Parsnip as he has been actively treating it for at least 5 years.  Todd told him to mow it and then spray it.  On 7/27 did another weed tour and found more Tansy.  On 7/31 the beaver are back on Collette Creek Culvert.  On 8/1 Alajoki said they were done with 470th and 150th so sent Dan to blade them out.  On 8/4 called a resident with Tansy he did mow it.  On 8/5 a resident called regarding the slow mail service.  Found a number online for her to call higher up the chain to complain as she was having no luck in Frazee.  

 Having no further business, Todd made a motion to adjourn.  All present in favor.

Respectfully submitted, Rana Holmer, Clerk
