Town staff and board members discussed a draft Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) for the Lost River area produced by the U.S. Forest Service. Staff told the board the draft is out for a 30-day public comment period and that a public open house is scheduled for April 24 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the White Mountain National Forest headquarters.

Staff said the draft and a link for submitting comments are available on the town website for residents who cannot attend the open house. Board members noted the Forest Service had held similar outreach in the town in prior years.

No formal board action was recorded; the item was presented to inform the public and encourage participation in the Forest Service comment process.
