B. Discuss place for KKB's wildflower placement in Sonora Park. Staff would like the Board to know
as well as the citizens that the area will only be mowed during the summer months as this is a
wildlife area so staff will only mow around the area. Will be at least a 10x10 area to grow over the
years. Jeff Nevarez asked that we place it around the Disc Golf between holes one and two. Or
another spot would be along the walking trail between sidewalk and the cattle fence, mostly sunny
and there is a bench there as well. Glenn Shark, Alan Pederson, and Michael Chandler think the
bench in that area is a great place to put these flowers. Jeff Nevarez will motion and Glenn Shark
to second to recommend the spot to KKB, Motion passed unanimously.
