It was unanimously voted to reimburse the Eaton Conservation Fund the $2000 borrowed from it for the Forest Management Fund in November, 2008.

FOREST MANAGEMENT The charge for planking work on the new bridges on Willis Bean Rd., contracted out to the GFI Co., is higher than anticipated, in part due to removal of extra material on the bridge that was frozen.
