Public Comments
Mr. Lindstrom suggested a motion activated camera at the Recycle Center for a few
months to catch whoever is dumping. He also felt that the reduction of the Recycle Center traffic
was not only due to the reduction of outside residents using it, it was also due to the fact that

residents that used to bring their household garbage there are now having it picked up at their
homes. He then made the statement that Hilltop is a senior project and that it is not going to add
to the work load. Lastly, he stated that the professionals should go out to bid yearly. Steve
Frasier, Buildings and Grounds Supervisor, added that, if the board budgets the surveillance
systems, he would be more than happy to loan them to the Highway department.
Joe Torres commented that the Recycle Center could allow the residents to drop off
leaves and brush at no charge. He then asked about a pool at Carnwath. The Highway
Superintendent, Graham Foster, explained what had happened to the pool that was there.
