  • Zimmerman property access concerns: Resident Dave Hause of 104 Summer Drive raised concerns about potential development of the Zimmerman property on Peters Mountain Road, across from the high school, and whether Summer Drive would be used as access to the development. No action was taken.
  • Flight Source building plans deferred to September: Engineer Marc Kurowski presented his July 27, 2020 memo on Flight Source's building plans. Representatives from Burch Associates were not present to discuss the memo, so the matter was placed on the September agenda.
