ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING MARCH 28, 2001 inconsistent, and several pages missing. Trehus noted all the necessary maps were missing. Trehus continued, noting that page 67 stated the City needed 359 buildable acres to allow for growth for 2010. As of August 2000, the projected growth zone for 2010 showed a difference in the numbers. Chair Lanyon asked staff to review the guidelines on pages 20 -23 and make sure all the guidelines were incorporated. Asleson identified that the forested areas were scattered throughout the City, not in dense woodlands. Chair Lanyon stated the inventory needed a map. Proactively speaking, this was the only way to compare classifications. Asleson stated there was a time lag between the map inventory and the field research to confirm the map. Chair Lanyon admitted that was true, however, the learning would be a process with the mapping. Trehus commented the map would give the City something to work from. Donlin noted interference with the rural goals as stated on page 28. Chair Lanyon added that 25,000 population conflicts with them. Donlin suggested removing #2, because it was a loophole for unlimited stage growth. Trehus indicated page 4.2 of the handbook had a conceptual greenway planned, however, the greenways need to be zoned as such so there would be no conflict. Asleson explained the grant would allow for a better definition of the greenway. Chair Lanyon stated goal #5 should have separate zoning. On page 26, under Land Use, a section on greenway goals and policies should be added. Trehus noted section 2.22 in the handbook describes lake protection areas, but nothing addresses those in the Plan. He asked how the conflict should be addressed. Chair Lanyon suggested a specific statement stand alone in the Plan, followed by an example. O'Connell stated on page 29, #7, promote community education and information to local property owners on home maintenance, repair, and assistance opportunities, should have landscaping added to it Chair Lanyon indicated the more the City could work with homeowner associations the better the planning. 10
