Douglas County Mosquito Abatement District

The board meeting centered on several key administrative and operational items. The agenda included the approval of the meeting agenda, presentation of the 2024-2025 annual audit which resulted in an unmodified opinion, and acceptance of the audit report. A significant portion of the discussion involved the retirement plan of the current manager, Krista Jenkins, who intends to retire on March 1, 2027, and the proposed succession plan involving Mark Lundberg, including a phased salary and benefit schedule starting January 1st. The board also discussed and approved the implementation of a new notification system using the GoGuv mobile application to improve community outreach regarding fogging schedules, moving away from the previously implemented 48-hour notification standard, which was deemed too burdensome. Finally, the board reviewed the operational report detailing activity such as drone usage, acreage treated, and changes in mosquito species composition, concluding with the approval of this report.
