APPROVAL OF FEBRUARY 2, 1998 MINUTES: Pam Taschuk made a motion, seconded by Paul Montain, to approve the February 2, 1998 minutes . The minutes were approved. OPEN MIKE : Bob Matykiewicz of 6674 Black Duck Drive addressed the group regarding the proposed Quail Ridge park project. He suggested that, if the City fills the wetlands in that area, the water which typically runs off onto the northeast corner of his property will have no outlet. Jeff Schoenbauer, Vice President of Brauer & Associates, Ltd. , responded, acknowledging that some grade changing would be required for development and that water n flow would have to be rerouted. Mr. Matykiewicz also asked about the amount of fill the City would do, to which Mr. Schoenbauer responded the intent is to strike an acceptable balance. He added that the master plan is an initial step and is subject to change. QUAIL RIDGE MASTER PLAN: Mr. Schoenbauer presented a review of the process and overall plan for Quail Ridge, explaining that thus far three public meetings have been held. The first meeting addressed the desires of the residents; the second, concepts; and the third, a preliminary master plan. Mr. Schoenbauer stated that the intent is to arrive at a balance between active and passive uses for this site. This small park is intended to serve the local residents as well as provide a trail tie-in with the rest of the community' s trail system. Mr. Schoenbauer explained that the trail system contained in this master plan is consistent with the overall park system plan. Mr. Schoenbauer stated that at this point plans are predicated upon a base map compiled with existing information from the City' s engineering department, and the site has not been specifically surveyed and delineated with respect to wetlands . Therefore, these issues will be addressed as the site is developed. He added that through mitigation and reworking grades most of the proposed development will be accomplished.
