SPECIAL MEETING SHADY BROOK COMMISSIONERS At 11:30 a.m. Chairman O’Brien opened a Special Meeting to consider a letter addressed to the residents of Shady Brook Mobile Village and Rental. Commissioner Jewell explained how there has been a lot of misinformation printed in the newspaper, as well as on social media. He said it was important to get accurate information out to the residents and reviewed a proposed letter. He said the letter reassures the residents that no decision has been made at this time for the parks closure, but they would be provided at least 12 months’ notice before it were to happen. Other information included how there would be several public meetings once the sale is final; specialists would be able to assist the residents in accessing any and all available resources to the residents; and how the County is committed to doing everything they can during the time of change. He also said there would be a Press Release going out within the next day and he would like a copy of the letter that is in both in English and Spanish to be posted on the County website, as well as sent to the local newspaper. LETTER SHADY BROOK COMMISSIONERS Commissioner Jewell moved to approve and authorize the Board to sign a letter to the residents of Shady Brook Mobile Village and Rental, both in English and Spanish, as well as a Press Release. Commissioner Osiadacz seconded. Motion carried 3-0.
