ON THE QUESTION
Chairman O’Brien
Ms. Marchant you are going to speak on this as well? Very good, any questions by members of the Board?
Alderman Caron
Yes thank you, this is just a continuation of the work that you’ve been doing for the last umpteen years, right?
Ms. Marchant
Yes this is the same 84 acres north of ... upstream from the Mine Falls Dam that we will be treating with
aquatic invasive herbicides
Alderman Caron
And you’re doing Sandy Pond this time?
Ms. Marchant
Sandy Pond will be done this year as well as it was last year and we saw some improvement. We will not be
doing the Mill Pond and Canal this year, that is an every other year rotation in partnership with Parks &
Recreation.
Alderman Caron
Thank you.
Alderman Laws
This is more maintenance than it is a solution to a long-term problem, right, just going gone into perpetuity?
