OLD BUSINESS
A) Killarney Hills, Tract R-2 Update
Horn stated there's nothing new to report.
EX-OFFICIO MEMBER SCHMITT stated at the previous P&Z meeting staff said there would be a
wetlands assessment done.
B) Saltery Cove & Portage Bay Trail Improvements Update
Horn stated Island Trails Network done a full assessment and now they're putting together a list of
costs. It will cost outside of the $150,000 that we have to spend on construction. Once ITN gets
back to us with costs we'll sit down to look at what the priorities are.
C) Island Lake Trail Improvements Update
Horn stated the contract with Island Trail Network was approved by the assembly and the contract
will be finalized soon. We'll be spending $40,000 on getting the trail improved using the grant that
we've had since 2006. We have to spend the money by June 2016. We have some State fund
provided grant to ITN for the front country crew which is about 2 weeks of 4 guys who will be doing
general trail maintenance; brush cutting, clearing, etc. ITN has offered them to us for 2 days. Two
days this week and next week they will be clearing the trail. Next year we're going to work on fixing
the trail.
D) Monashka Bandit Shooting Range Update
CHAIR SALTONSTALL stated this is what Janel Day (GIS), COMMITTEE MEMBER LEIST, and
he went to look at and took pictures of. They were amazed at what a nice area it is and it would
make a good park.
