As several trees surrounding the courthouse have been tapped for removal due to structure or illness, such as the ash trees, Supervisor Mark Faldet called for a landscaping plan to be developed for the courthouse property so it could be a thoughtful design on courthouse grounds. 

While no budget for the plan development was set, it was suggested if there may be a volunteer who would wish to put this together for the county, and the plan could be used as a guide over the next several years.

At the Aug. 14 Board of Supervisors meeting, Supervisor Mark Faldet shared that he had good response regarding assistance planning for landscaping.  Faldet did share a copy of a 1930 landscaping plan for the courthouse prepared for the American Legion at the time.
