Discussion on Horses came up again. Previously, there was a motion made by Commissioner Clarkson that Carried at the Oct. 22, 2020 meeting. Being that Commissioner Clarkson was not in attendance at the February 22nd. meeting the Board asked Clerk Baez to review the recording and bring back for discussion at the March 22, 2021 meeting. Note: In the preparing of these minutes of February 22, 2021, Clerk Baez did review the recording of October 22, 2020 and after much discussion during the recording regarding horses, it was Commissioner Carpenter that suggested 1 horse/per 1 acre and an additional horse for each ½ acre following. Commissioner Brauer also agreed to that verbiage. Therefore, a motion was put in place by Commissioner Clarkson and seconded by Commissioner Brauer as it is written/stated in the Oct. 22, 2020 minutes.
