V. OLD BUSINESS:
Mark Hendrickson, City Forester, Staff Liaison, asked the Board if they had any further
questions on the Landscape Code used for Mixed Use Projects. The first process he
explained at the last meeting was the first process which gets approved by City Council,
then there is administrative approval. The project can be modified after Council's
approval by staff, this is not by Planning and Zoning or City Council. There are certain
processes that are gone through in order to make these changes. Staff can review any
changes that are not major. Staff is not able to change over 25% of a projects
landscaping. By the end of the project all of the approvals on a project would be
representative of what is seen in the field. The Board discussed again planning a field trip
to visit a particular site in the City and go over landscape plans. A motion was made by
Donna Wisneski to use next month's meeting as a planning meeting for a field trip. This
