Chairperson Windscheif thanked Messrs. Kisil and Kooney, property owners, |
|
for their attendance and acknowledged that all but one member of GSAB walked |
|
the two (2) Rochester Road parcels on Tuesday, June 8, 2010. The parcels |
|
contain diverse plant and tree habitat along with a considerable amount of |
|
wetlands. Public access to the parcels was a challenge. The parcels do not |
|
appear to be a link to other open spaces at this time. |
|
Chairperson Windscheif gave a brief overview of the scoring process noting that |
|
the City prepares topographical maps and preliminary scoring based on the |
|
established Natural Features Inventory criteria. The criteria may be found on |
|
the City's web page or by contacting Mr. Mike Hartner, Director of Parks & |
|
Forestry. Typically after GSAB walks a nominated parcel, they score it at the |
|
next regular meeting. There would have been five members present at the June |
|
meeting for a quorum. However, GSAB felt it was best to have as many |
|
members present as possible to score the parcels. The consensus was to |
|
postpone the scoring of the Rochester Road parcels until the July GSAB |
|
meeting. Member Carvey could not attend the July meeting, however, he |
|
submitted his scoring to the Board. |
