Board Plan to Deal with Hopper Plague and Equipment

The board met with all directors present and discussed retaining equipment received from the Circus Board. A low-volume machine purchased last year will be kept for landholders lacking gear, and a second machine could aid. Reports showed the general fund in debit at £2165, with smaller balances in Rabbit Destruction and Reserves funds and bonds of £1060. A rabbit destruction prosecution was ordered. 18 properties require reinspection. The board also considered road closings, land allotments, and lease options, opposing some revocations while supporting others for travel routes and golf links.
