York-area boards to weigh land funding, budgets, and fire district projects
Several York-area boards met Aug. 17-18, but none of their minutes have been published yet, so no decisions have been reported. The most consequential item on the agendas is the York County Forever Commission's consideration of funding for three land conservation projects, along with a closed session on five property acquisitions.
York County Forever Commission
The commission's agenda included funding approvals for three land projects: Project #25.03 (York Place), Project #26.03 (Nance Living Trust Tracts, at the headwaters of Suzybole Creek), and Project #26.06 (Rock Haven Dairy Farm/Wells Family Properties). The board also planned to discuss an updated fact sheet for County Council and hear an accreditation status update from the Nation Ford Land Trust. The meeting was to close with an executive session on contractual negotiations for five acquisitions: Projects #26.09, #26.10, #26.08, #26.11, and #26.12. No vote results are available.
