MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />SEPTEMBER 13, 2000 <br />Watershed that is ultimately the licensing authority for altering of <br />wetlands. <br />Sculley reported that he has a lot of buildable land, and at some point this <br />property will develop. However, he was concerned about a government <br />agency restricting his use of the property. <br />Fahey noted that the City has indicated to the property owners in the area <br />to submit any information they might have on how the area has changed <br />over the years as a result of development in Maplewood. Once all the <br />information is obtained, it will be reviewed, and a meeting will be held <br />with the Watershed to review this matter. <br />Scalze suggested that when the Watershed is contacted, they should be <br />asked about the level of control they have over this property. Scalze stated <br />that she would like to know what the term "wetland" means and why some <br />wetland areas can be filled and others cannot. <br />Sculley reported that he has been asked if he is interested in donating <br />property in return for future tax credits. Sculley indicated that he is not <br />interested in this concept. <br />Fahey indicated that when a meeting is held on this issue, Cliff Aichinger <br />of the Watershed should be present so that he can answer both the <br />Council's and property owners' questions. <br />RECESS At this point in the regular Council meeting, 8:15 p.m., Council recessed <br />back to the Budget workshop meeting.
