He added that playground equipment and campground upgrades could also be looked at.
Commissioner Ramone Gumke stated that focusing on funding to improve water safety should be a top priority. Berg stated he would maybe look to a partnership with a company to find funding.
He expects more traffic in the area once the NDFU Youth Camp is completed and operating. He says warmer weather has helped crews with the current construction of the camp.
Berg stated he would focus his efforts on water safety improvements.
