Member Comments The floor was opened to the public. Many comments were heard concerning the Nature Park. The Board listened attentively to the concerns of these Briarwood Residents. Monica Fochtman assured the residents that absolutely no effort by the board was made to cut down trees or groom the park in any way. Residents that have been voluntarily removing dead tree limbs will be discouraged from doing so in future. Use of the park is encouraged. The Board reiterated their approval of plans for use of the park approved of in June. It was suggested that residents who live near areas of concern be notified if there are changes in those areas.
