5. Parks:
a. Barstow Heights Park— Septic overflowed on 6/16/2025. Silver Valley Septic was contacted and responded to clean up and assessment. Tank and leach lines need replacement. Board determines the best approach is to abandon current placement and install replacements (1000-gallon tank and around sixty feet of leach line) in the open area near the office building to hook up to current lines from restrooms.
President Schendel has contacted a company for a price for a metal canopy for open area being developed. Waiting for reply.
