- 1:04:25 – 1:08:00 additional discussion on this issue
While the board didn’t accept the request directly, there was clear support for the county taking on group’s requests from Commissioners Malinowski and Schouten, and Commissioner Terry requested a meeting with the group to better understand the group’s work and requests. Land Use and Transportation Director Andrew Singelakis was also supportive of the idea of involving the tree group and some of their recommendations in the upcoming Aloha-Reedville Study and Livable Community Plan work.
