Background and Discussion:
Precinct 4 received a donation request from Eagle Scout candidate Micah Oloyede for materials needed to restore a Chimney Swift tower and install two bat houses as part of his "Bio Tower: Chimney Swift and Bat Habitat" project. The donation includes lumber, hardware, concrete, rebar, paint, and related supplies valued at approximately $340.00. The project aims to stabilize the existing structure and enhance habitat availability for native species essential to local mosquito control.
Expected Impact:
This donation will allow the Scout to complete construction of a restored Chimney Swift tower and bat houses, providing permanent nesting and roosting sites for species that significantly reduce mosquito populations. The improvements support increased biodiversity and contribute to long-term environmental benefits within the local ecosystem.
