TELEPHONE REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL:
Eight bidders submitted RFPs to replace and
update the current County telephone system.
The RFPs will be reviewed and a
recommendation will be made to the Board in
a few weeks.
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN:

outlined the process which includes: SEPA

public hearing before the Board.
