Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final April 19, 2022 <br />Interim Director Powell, in consultation with County Historian Ruth Stanbridge, <br />contemplated several options which included: 1) re -design and installation of a <br />reconstructed Ice House based on the Atelier plans; 2) install similar fall <br />rails/handrails along the length of the dock where the Ice House was located, and <br />install commemorative educational signage on the dock; 3) design and install an <br />alternate structure for public use, which may include a deck area with a covered <br />pavilion in the location of the Ice House, with commemorative educational <br />signage. <br />The Commissioners each engaged in discussion with Ms. Powell and expressed <br />their opinions, and concerns. The Board was in support of creating a public <br />amenity by extending the deck and rails, with picnic tables, educational kiosks, <br />and a kayak launch. They were also in favor of the open pavilion approach and <br />not building replicas of the previous structure. <br />Chairman O'Bryan sought information from Conservation Lands Program <br />Coordinator Wendy Swindell as to the reasonability to be able to permit an <br />extended dock including a shaded structure. Ms. Swindell stated the County <br />would not need to look at a site plan if the existing footprint where the ice house <br />existed was utilized. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Flescher, seconded by Chairman <br />O'Bryan to move forward with the request for proposals for the dock and <br />picnic area at the Archie Smith Fish House and to return to the Board with <br />proposals. The motion carried by the following vote: <br />Aye: 5 - Chairman O'Bryan, Vice Chairman Earman, Commissioner Adams, <br />Commissioner Flescher, and Commissioner Moss <br />D.
