ConCom to sponsor pollinator garden project and promote cyanobacteria education event July 30

Anni Jakobsen told the commission that ConCom will sponsor a pollinator garden project at the Transfer Station this fall. Because of current ground conditions the project will likely use raised beds; Jakobsen is working with the task force and Transfer Station staff on plot layout and watering arrangements until the plants establish.

Jakobsen also reported that LWA, working in collaboration with ConCom, will present a cyanobacteria education program on July 30 at 6 p.m. at the Library that will include information on associated health risks. The minutes use the acronym "LWA" but do not spell out the organization’s full name; the transcript does not provide further details about presenters or funding for these activities.

The commission approved routine items and will continue planning logistics for the garden and the public education event.
