Dave —Tree Preservation; Vegetation Mike — Stormwater Infiltration and Treatment; Lighting Rod — Impervious Surfaces; Buffers Scott —Tree Preservation; Stormwater Infiltration and Treatment Tere —Soil Treatment; Buffers What I intend to do is to go through this list for each project. I'll ask if there are any additional recommendations or questions regarding TREE PRESERVATION. Once we've dealt with that I'll move on to BUFFERS and so on. If you have specific recommendations that you can write out in advance of the meeting that would move things along even more quickly and efficiently. To prepare for our new roles, I encourage all of you to follow Dave's advice and take it upon yourself to learn more about the topics for which you have volunteered. Here is my attempt to summarize the goals that we discussed. You'll note that I eliminated WEB SITE as a goal and instead made it one of the potential activities that fall within GOAL #2. I welcome your feedback and editorial comments. GOAL #1. Educate developers about the benefits of including prairie gardens in their landscape designs. Potential Activity — Provide developers with the opportunity to see examples of blooming prairie gardens and to talk with the people who "maintain" them. GOAL #2. Increase citizen understanding and appreciation Lino Lakes' unique environmental qualities. Potential Activities — create a web site Pilot Restoration Project Update Environmental Board Packet Encourage landscaping companies to advertise in city Investigate possibility of using the "City Wagon" GOAL #3. Identify and pursue preservation of, unique environmental assets of the city. Potential Activity -- Promote the preservation of the property located on the north side of Lino Lakes Elementary. GOAL #4. Restructure monthly meetings to preserve 50% (one hour) of the meeting to advance our proactive goals. Potential Activity —assign responsibilities (e.g., tree preservation, buffers) to individual board members 17apico_ &_Pexpeariov_BoapS Xin oq Aavo Aa ceo- 2
