John Adkins appeared before the board to discuss rodent issues that he is having at his residence.

Mr. Adkins was told that the board gave Mr. Goss until November 7, 2021 to get his inventory of mobile homes below 10 or his conditional use permit will be null and void. Mr. Adkins accused the board of making a bad decision in regards to giving Mr. Goss a conditional use permit, to which Mark Trowbridge explained that there were public meetings during the permit process and they were posted in the paper, mailed to adjacent land owners (including Mr. Adkins), and posted around town, so everyone had the opportunity to voice their opposition.
