Discussion: Open Space Open House <br />a. Update on Touch -a -Truck Event <br />• OSAB and Louisville's Open Space got a lot of good exposure. <br />• Next time, it would be useful to include something for the kids to play with so that <br />the parents could take a few minutes to read the signs. <br />• We should add a sign about coyotes, particularly about hazing, the coyote report <br />form, coyotes as predators, and not feeding / deterring coyotes from coming into <br />your yard. <br />0 Laura has volunteered to make a coyote sign and plans on having it ready <br />by early next week. <br />b.
