Approval of Meeting Minutes — OSAB approved the January meeting minutes. Public Comments — Alfie Pena appeared to speak about the items from the public from the January meeting and he asked that the Board consider loosening the leash laws. Michael Gheleta asked that we consider including this item at the next OSAB meeting, so that others from the public may be aware that we are discussing this item, and so that others may offer their comments. Tom Davinroy suggested that Mr. Pena speak to Fl DO out of Boulder, and other residents within Louisville so that we can have a more specific proposal to consider. Scott Robson described the current and future plans for off -leash parks. Art Phelps appeared to discuss the refinements of the trail from Hecla Trail to Hecla Lake. He presented a petition with 90 signatories from the community of Balfour who support a hard surface trail from Hecla Trail to Hecla Lake. Jeff Moline reported that the developer has committed to building all of the trails, including trails on currently -owned Louisville open space at Hecla Lake. Timing may be an issue, but Staff continues to hold trails at Hecla Lake as a very high priority. Staff is considering building a partial temporary trail and /or a partial permanent trail. Staff may also ask for reimbursement. Mr. Phelps indicated that a trail along 42 would be more useful than the currently proposed trail along the ditches, ending up at State Highway 42. Doug Grineburg appeared and discussed the cleaning by the ditch company that the City had to clean up after the fact. He suggested that the ditch company should work with the City to do one cleaning.
