(Audubon) The Audubon County Board of Supervisors are considering options for Nishnabotna Park located in the northern part of the county.
Roadside Manager Kent Grabill appeared at Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting with some suggestions. Supervisor’s Chairman Doug Sorensen explains, at the very least, some cleanup will need to take place around the LE 10 Bridge. “Audubon County actually owns eight acres up there which is a falling down woodland. A lot of dead and rotten trees up there. Kent Grabill proposed rather than just clean up around the bridge, just clean up the entire site and get a grant for planting native prairie grasses.”
The Supervisors didn’t take any action during their weekly meeting, but did discuss options. “We discussed the possibility of that being something else for conservation. We wanted to talk to Bruce Haag about it. There’s talks about a boat lunch for canoes or kayaks underneath the bridge. Apparently right now a lot of people use it for four wheelers and ATV’s. You could use it for public use There’s eight acres there and we discussed doing something with that property other than just letting it grow up into trees.”
