ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 23, 2005 <br />O’Dea inquired if the water volumes had been verified yet. Mr. Mattke indicated <br />that they had not completed the verification, however it appeared the pond was <br />undersized. <br /> <br />O’Connell inquired if the timeline had been confirmed, and would hotel <br />construction begin on May 6, 2005. Mr. Mattke responded that the dates would <br />be adjusted at each step if a deadline was not met. He added that they probably <br />would not break ground for the hotel that early. <br /> <br />O’Connell asked for clarification that the trees up the road would be planted. Mr. <br />Mattke indicated that they would be planted. In addition, they would first <br />construct the ponds, but not the piping. The things necessary for grading would be <br />done first. <br /> <br />O’Connell questioned the lines on the map. Mr. Mattke indicated that they were <br />elevation contour lines. <br /> <br />O’Connell inquired about fencing on site during the grading. Mr. Mattke <br />responded that there would be a fence at the property line. <br /> <br />O’Connell asked if there were going to be any trees in the parking area. Mr. <br />Mattke answered there were none planned. He added that there was no plan for <br />the front of the buildings, but there would be twelve feet in front of it for <br />landscaping. <br /> <br />O’Connell mentioned the back parking area, and indicated that she as a woman <br />who often traveled alone would never park there, and asked if the parking could <br />be moved to the front. Mr. Mattke responded that the building was situated due <br />to the setbacks. There would be a fence in the back and probably some plantings. <br /> <br />Grundhofer noted that 90% of the trees in the parking area would be removed. <br />Asleson added that some could be saved with a grade change. <br /> <br />Bauman clarified that there might be a potential for a tree island. Mr. Mattke <br />stated that they would not work. <br /> <br />Bor asked for clarification on the plans for grading. Mr. Mattke stated the entire <br />site would be graded. <br /> <br />Asleson stated that they needed to show the individual trees and the tree <br />protection areas if they had to take the grade down. Mr. Mattke stated there <br />would be silt fences in place. <br /> <br />Asleson stated that he often asked for the orange fences, because they were more <br />visible. <br /> <br />3 APPROVED MINUTES
