Both have served important roles on the APB in their initial terms and have <br /> been regular attendees (Mr. Thompson was absent for several meetings due to <br /> illness). <br /> Additionally, the APB recommends that Renee McPherson be appointed to serve <br /> in the Cane Creek/Buckhorn Voluntary Agricultural District seat, by virtue of her <br /> application and the approval of her farm as a Voluntary Agricultural District <br /> participating farm, which the BOCC approved on April 17, 2012. <br /> Members Patrick McGarry and Spence Dickinson complete their second terms on <br /> June 30, 2012, making their seats vacant. The APB is currently reviewing applicants <br /> to the Board and will have a recommendation for appointment(s) in the near future. <br /> The APB thanks Mr. McGarry and Mr. Dickinson for their years of service. <br /> Thank you for consideration of these appointments. <br /> (On behalf of the APB) <br /> Sincerely, <br /> David Stancil <br /> Director, Department of Environment, Agriculture, Parks and Recreation <br /> Cc: Kim Woods and Howard McAdams, Co-Chairs <br />
