Further, he was worried about a few safety issues and when a bench on the west side oi` thc~ lake would be installed. The Balfour residents would like to see more than one bench installed. Ember stated that the property hasn't been turned over fron-i the developer, Markel yet and we can't do a bench until then. The area still r~ee~ds to meet construction acceptance of stage 1. The trail to Lafayette won't be cor~npleted until crossings are completed. That crossing will be concrete and wooden railing. The bench on the concrete pad should go in this year. Regarding safety issues, the fence in the woods should be removed during constr•uct.ion. The contractor will be giving suggestions for ditch safety that will be pass~sd onto the developer. Most of these items will be done by the fall. There might be trail closure for some items to be finished later. Art stated that the signs staying the area is closed have been removed. Ember will get these replaced. Linda asked if more benches could be put in. Ember stated it depends on what types of benches are used and completion of work.
