TO: CONSERVATION BOARD MEMBERS
FROM: MICHAEL SMITH, SENIOR PLANNER
DATE: JULY 30, 2015
SUBJECT: UPCOMING CONSERVATION BOARD MEETING – AUGUST 6, 2015
This is to confirm that the next meeting of the Conservation Board (CB) is Thursday,
August 6th at 5:30 p.m. The agenda for this meeting is enclosed (see the back of this
memo). The draft minutes from the May 7, 2015 and the June 4, 2015 meetings are
attached. The July 2nd minutes were not available for the mail out.
At this meeting we will have a brief discussion of the invasive species event that the CB
held on July 16th. For those that attended, please think about positives, negatives,
things to do differently next time, and if this type of event is something to plan again
(with or without the NYS Invasive Species Awareness Week).
We will also see if anyone has any updates regarding the pest management policy
research and deer management topics.
Mike Roberts has volunteered to take minutes at the August meeting.
If you have any questions prior to the meeting or are not able to attend, please contact
me at msmith@town.ithaca.ny.us or 607-273-1747.
