OLD BUSINESS
Johnson Lot: Bob Todd joined us and presented an agency agreement for the Forestry Committee giving him authority to act on our behalf. Tim Trimbur showed a map of the access crossing the Ovens Lot. He suggested a payment of $1000 to cover hard pack of the driveway after the cut is done, some hard pack and adjustment to the landing area eg: removal of rock and reseeding the area. There may need to be some snowplowing done as the proposed cut is a short term contract Sept 1 to Feb. 28. Tim suggested a pulp or chipping option as part of the operation depending on the market price. There would be clean-up of any debris or breach of walls.
Discussion occurred of a management plan, goals of the cut, and reviewed the management plan from 1996.
A motion was made for Bob Todd to proceed with an inventory of the Johnson Lot, and all approved it. The group felt a site walk would be recommended following receipt of the inventory to review the potential cut. Bob feels he will be able rto complete the inventory to report at the next Forestry Committee meeting.

Lydia Dodge Lot West: The lot is still wet. Tom Miller needs 3 more 12 footers to complete the deck. Tim has the Intent to Cut completed.
