Monongahela resident Lynne O'Bradovich stated he has lived near the park for nearly 50
years and appreciates its simplicity and natural beauty. He expressed relief that the park would not be
developed in a commercial manner and urged the Board to preserve its current character.
Eighty Four resident Roger Shaw shared his support for the park and offered alternative ideas
if funds become available. He suggested creating a nature or information center to improve
communication about park programs. He also recommended hiring a part-time environmental
biologist to help manage invasive species and maintain park health. Mr. Shaw referenced elements of
the 2025 Countv Parks piaster Plan and encouraged the focus on stewardship, rather than something
like miniature golf. He also commented on the educational programs offered at the park.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
An executive session to discuss personnel and litigation was held at the end of the Agenda
Meeting on July 14, 2026. The Salary Board will convene at the conclusion of this meeting. The next
regularly scheduled Board of Commissioners' meeting will be held in this room at 10 AM on
Thursday, August 20, 2026, followed by the Salary Board. The Commissioners will host their summer
blood drive in this room on Thursday, June 23, 2027. See flyers on the table in the back. Please note
