Description
11/19/20
Presentation followed by discussion regarding the wetlands restoration.
A
Let's,
let's
begin,
I
just
want
to
welcome
everyone
good
evening,
thanks
for
joining
us
for
the
parks
department's
update
meeting
on
the
roslindale
wetlands
capital
project,
I'm
paul
sutton,
I'm
the
urban
wilds
program
manager
and
tonight
we're
going
to
update
everyone
on
where
we
are
in
the
the
design
development
process
for
the
project.
A
Before
I
go
into
introductions
and
the
agenda,
I
just
want
to
say
you
know
that
we
really
appreciate
you
taking
time
out
to
to
join
us,
we're
so
excited.
This
has
actually
been
many
years
of
planning
and
budgeting
and
we're
we're
really
excited
to
be
at
this
point
of
the
project.
These
these
wetland
restoration
projects
are
very
challenging.
A
It
takes
a
lot
of
effort
to
undo
a
lot
of
damage
to
some
of
these
ecologically
sensitive
areas,
but
we
think
that
we,
with
this
plan
and
with
years
of
work,
we'll
be
able
to
really
turn
things
around.
I
just
want
to
mention
two
before
continuing.
As
many
of
you
know,
we've
had
a
lot
of
crazy
storms
passed
through
the
area
recently
and
we've
gotten
a
lot
of
calls
on
that.
A
We're
going
to
try
to
address
some
of
the
tree
work
in
the
next
few
weeks,
but
some
of
the
work
will
try
to
fold
in
with
this
project
so
with
without
further
ado.
Why
don't
we
go
through
introductions
with
joining
me
at
with
parks
and
rec?
We've
got
liz
sullivan
who's,
the
director
of
and
external
affairs,
and
then
our
design
team
is
crowley.
Cottrell
and
we've
got
michelle
crowley
with
us.
A
Jessica
brown
and
anna
curtis
held
joining
as
a
sub
is
tom
hughes
from
hughes,
environmental,
consulting
and,
of
course,
our
key
partners
with
the
roslindale
wetlands
task
force
and
lana.
So
that
is
the
team
working
on
this
and
let's
tonight,
what
we'd
like
to
do
is
just
go
over
a
briefly
how
to
comment.
This
will
be
a
webinar
format,
we'll
go
over
that
a
little
bit
we'll
give
a
a
recap
of
where
we
are
in
the
process.
A
B
Update
all
right,
so
it
says
just
a
quick,
I'm
jessica,
I'm
with
crowley
cottrell,
just
a
quick
overview
of
how
to
comment.
This
is
a
webinar,
it's
a
little
different
than
what
we
did
for
the
last
zoom
on
for
this
project.
There's
no
chat
for
participants.
B
Your
cameras
are
all
off
and
we
can't
hear
you
unfortunately,
but
you
can
ask
questions
and
raise
your
hand
so
asking
questions
we'll
send
your
question
to
the
moderator
who's,
michelle
mish
and
if
it's
appropriate
in
pg,
she'll
answer
it
or
acknowledge
it,
so
that
everybody
can
everybody
can
see
that
question
and
if
she
can
answer
it
on
the
spot,
she
will
otherwise
she'll
hold
it
to
the
end
over
it.
B
At
the
end
and
at
the
end
of
the
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
we'll
have
a
time
for
question
and
answer
live
where
you
can
raise
your
hand
and
then
the
mish
can
unmute
you,
and
we
can.
B
You
know
have
a
little
back
and
forth
with
your
question
and
and
go
forward,
and
so
she's
she'll
see
the
raised,
hands
and
ants
and
and
on
and
unmute
in
order
just
so
we're
not
all
getting
getting
feedback
all
right
and
she
can
also
interrupt
in
the
middle
if
there's
something
pressing
right
away
that
I
need
to
address
so
a
little
bit
about
the
process.
Recap
from
what
we've
been
doing.
We
have
we
started
on
this
project.
We
had
our
first
site.
B
Visit
back
in
march,
walked
to
the
site,
got
to
see
the
foliage
as
it
was
unfurling
and
then
the
next
day
we
all
went
into
lockdown,
and
so
we
did
the
first
part
of
the
public
process
in
in
a
sort
of
new
new
fashion.
We
did
our
public
opinion
survey
with
132
respondents.
B
We
was
that
right,
I
think
that's
right,
and
then
we
had
our
first
zoom
public
meeting
on
june
9th.
Then
there
was
a
two
week
public
comment
period
after
that,
where
paul
collected
emails
and
suggestions
that
way,
so
all
of
that
has
all
of
that
input
has
really
informed
our
process.
We've
listened
to
what
we
heard
in
the
surveys,
what
we
heard
in
the
meeting,
what
paul
heard
in
the
that
comment
period
we
regrouped
and
we
started
to
develop
the
plans.
Further.
B
We've
had
feedback
from
not
just
the
public,
but
also
public
agencies
such
as
the
boston,
water,
sewer,
commission,
the
conservation
commission
and
the
public
improvement
commission,
and
that
brings
us
to
where
we
are
today
shortly
after
this
meeting,
given
whatever
feedback
we
get
here,
we
will
submit
a
notice
of
intent
to
the
conservation,
commission
and
there'll,
be
a
process
with
them
for
final
permitting
to
give
us
the
go
ahead
to
work
in
this
sensitive
area.
B
Once
we
have
that
plan
approved,
then
we
can
put
the
documents
out
to
bid
and
we
are
still
hoping
to
get
into
construction
in
the
spring
and
as
paul
mentioned
it,
it
is
a
complicated
site.
So
we
anticipate
that
that
construction
will
be.
You
know
that,
especially
the
habitat
restoration
pieces
will
be
ongoing
process
for
for
quite
a
while,
after
that,
both
with
contractors,
but
also
possibly
community
help.
If
there's
motivation
so
then
so
the
design
goals,
this
these
design
goals
are
really
really
came
out
of
that
community
process.
B
Both
the
process
that
paul
has
been
going
through
the
community
up
until
we
arrived
and
then
and
then
further
formed
by
what
we
heard
in
the
survey
and
at
the
meeting
and
in
those
comments.
So,
first
and
foremost,
the
project
is
about
restoring
the
plant
and
wildlife
habitat.
B
B
What
doesn't
seem
to
be
a
lot
of
interest
in
that
from
the
community
sort
of
really
wanting
to
limit
human
human
access
and
turn
over
more
to
habitat,
so
we're
we're
focusing
on
just
completing
that
trail:
loop,
improving
trail
accessibility,
so
trying
to
make
the
trails
a
easier
for
people
with
mobility
issues,
walkers,
wheelchairs,
etc,
to
be
able
to
come
in
so
we're
shooting
for
national
forest
service
standards
for
accessibility.
B
As
far
as
what
the
surface
is
made
of
how
much
you
know
not,
maybe
not
for
the
whole
loop
but
making
sure
that
there
are
portions
of
the
site
that
are
accessible
to
people,
so
they
can
enjoy
the
wetland,
but
also
in
some
places
where
it's
more
challenging
and
will
continue
to
be
more
challenging,
just
making
sure
that
the
trails
aren't
too
muddy
that
you
can
get
across
at
certain
places
that
have
been
blocked
up
to
now,
then
the
last.
The
fourth
piece
is
making
the
entrances
more
welcoming.
B
There
was
a
lot
of
interest
in
that
and
overall,
just
minimizing
impact,
as
I
said
at
the
beginning,
and
that's
sort
of
going
back
to
restoring
plant
and
wildlife
habitat
as
the
main
goal
and
making
sure
that
whatever
improvements,
we
do
the
trail
whatever
signage,
we
do
that
we're
we're
trying
to
have
a
light
touch
and
not
not
go
overboard,
because
this
really
is
an
urban
wild
right.
It's
not
a
park,
it's
urban
wild
and
that
and
keeping
it
wild
is
a
main
goal.
B
A
We
had
a,
we
had
a
question
regarding
the
budget.
Do
you
want
me
to
comment
on
that
or
would.
A
Sure
so,
for
this
project
we
budgeted
500
000,
and
you
know
we
are
hoping
that
when
this
project
goes
out
to
bid
we'll
get
lots
of
competitive
bids
and
get
good
pricing
we'll
have
to
take
the
lowest
qualified
and
responsive
bidder.
But
that's
that's
how
much
we
we've
lined
up
for
this
this
project,
five
hundred
thousand,
it's
the
equivalent
of
what
like
a
small
tot
lot.
Playground
project
would
cost.
So
it's
the
dollars
are
really
going
far
in
this.
This
this
project.
B
Yeah,
that's
a
good
point
thanks
for
bringing
that
up
also
as
far
as
what
I'm
about
to
go
through
in
terms
of
the
improvements
we're
gonna.
This
is
everything
we're
going
forward
with
to
permitting,
as
far
as
what
we'll
have
the
budget
to
do,
we're
going
to
have
to
structure
the
contract
so
that
you
know
we
can
make
that
500
000.
B
B
One
of
the
big
areas
is
down
here
at
coniston.
That's
a
huge
area
of
knotweed
right
now,
trying
to
revert
that
to
more
of
a
native
meadow
and
really
simultaneously
improve
it
as
an
entrance
point.
So
getting
a
path
in
here
that
is
accessible,
that
forest
service
accessible
path.
That's
this
dark
blue
color
here
so
a
couple
of
out
and
backs
that
people
could
get
to
with
mobility
issues.
B
One
of
these,
for
example,
might
might
be
something
that
a
budget
would
have
to
delay,
but
because
that's
that's
sort
of
an
extra
there
going
around
there's
a
few
spaces
where
there
is
a
good
amount
of
invasive
trees.
So
here
down
here,
there's
some
hammer
cork
up
here.
Those
are
places
where
we
would
be
removing
some
invasive
and
or
hazardous
trees,
and
then
replanting
with
more
native
species.
B
We've
got
the
trail
loop
overall
being
connected
through
here
with
a
couple
of
boardwalks.
There's
one
boardwalk
here
to
get
you
through
that
steep
area
between
robkin,
road
and
coniston
road.
There's
another
boardwalk
we'd
like
to
put
here
to
get
you
over
the
wetlands.
B
There
then
working
this
this
edge,
that
is
currently
pretty
rocky
and
overgrown
and
working
that
edge
to
get
a
path
in
a
round
to
where
there's
right
now
an
abandoned
boardwalk
that
you
know
when
these
houses
were
built,
start
understanding
that
having
a
boardwalk
there
and
access
was
part
of
the
development
criteria
for
those
houses.
That
boardwalk
is
no
longer
usable.
So
taking
that
out
and
getting
one
in.
That's
that's
more
secure
and
not
going
to
float
away
as
the
last
one
did
across
through
here
and
then
on.
B
Then
coming
around
adjusting
this
path
so
that
it
comes
down
to
the
wetland,
so
you
can
really
get
a
sense.
The
wetland
right
now
it
comes
uphill,
a
bit
in
this
area.
There
was
a
large
amount
of
soil
dumped
into
the
wetland,
so
removing
that
soil,
removing
the
knotweed
that
is
there
and
replanting
that
area
through.
Here
you
see
a
few
brown
rectangles.
Those
are
wet
areas
where
we're
proposing
to
put
fog
bridges
like
you
can
see
up
here
in
this
photograph
again.
B
This
is
the
boardwalk
here
to
point
to
the
pictures
and
this
accessible
route
is.
This
is
just
right
here.
This
trail,
that's
really
built
up
is
really
only
this
accessible
out
and
back
the
rest
of
it
would
be
just
just
a
stone
dust
path.
A
dirt
trail
only
built
up
like
this
in
these
couple
of
places,
the
stair
being
right
right
there
and
that
that's
sort
of
the
big
overview,
and
then
I
can
get
more
into
each
entry
paul
did.
Did
I
miss
anything?
B
Okay,
here
we
have
an
overview
of
the
habitat
restoration
area,
so
in
purple
we've
got
the
knotweed
that's
going
to
be.
You
know
what
we're
proposing
to
the
conservation
commission
is
that
that's
a
pretty
aggressive
treatment.
It's
a
pretty
aggressive
plant
requires
pretty
aggressive
treatment,
whereas
the
english
iv,
and
maybe
the
creeping
buttercup
and
the
also
the
garlic
mustard.
B
Sorry
that
was
both
of
those
species
are
in
this
yellow
area
might
be
more
a
community
effort-
or
you
know,
maybe
with
a
kickstart
in
this
project,
but
a
longer
time
frame.
B
Then
there's
also
the
multiflora
rose,
which
is
something
that
probably
in
this
project,
we'll
try
to
try
and
get
as
far
as
we
can
with
the
money
and
then
there's
just
a
tiny,
tiny
bit
of
phragmites
that
we
might
that
we'd
like
to
nip
in
the
bud
anything
else
on
here
in
this
one,
no
okay,
great
so
moving
in
zooming
in
a
little
bit
to
the
entrances,
we've
got
the
selwyn
street
entrance.
The
selling
street
continues
well,
there's
a
paper
street
that
continues
off
the
end
of
selman
street.
B
So
the
city
has
interest
in
this
half
of
that
area,
whereas
the
neighbor
here
has
you
know,
there's
lawn
growing
in
this
half
so
to
make
that
edge
a
little
more
visible,
we're
proposing
to
put
just
sort
of
rock
boundary
markers
and
and
make
more
lush
planting.
It
still
needs
to
be
passable.
B
So
we
have
to
keep
the
plantings
in
this
area
pretty
low,
improving
the
path
here,
improving
this
granite,
curb
here
and
getting
access
up
into
this
area
a
lot
of
new
planting,
because
we
will
hopefully
be
taking
out
some
of
the
norway
maples
in
that
area
and
taking
away
the
broken
bench
that's
over
here
right
now
and
putting
in
a
stone
bench
that
should
be
durable
and
kind
of
blend
in
with
the
the
aesthetic
of
the
place
as
as
natural
and
also
impacted,
and
then,
lastly,
putting
up
a
sign
hoping
to
get
all
of
the
signage
that
is
needed
into
one
sign.
B
So
both
the
name
of
the
park,
the
the
map
and
any
and
any
interpretive
information
that
we
want
to
put
on
to
put
on
here-
and
I
think
that's
that's
the
gist
of
this
entrance.
I
gave
the
confused
look
because
I
thought
I
had
changed
the
sign
picture
to
a
smaller
one
for
this
area,
but
it
gets
the
point
across
I
did
yeah.
This
is
some
of
my
updates
didn't
make
it
to
this
one.
I'm
not
sure
what
happened.
This
is
the
coniston
street
entrance.
B
This
is
where
we're
really
hoping
to
knock
back
that
knot
weed
in
a
big
way
and
really
change
the
appearance
to
put
a
nice
path
through
here.
That
gets
you
out
to
that
accessible
those
accessible
turnarounds
to
improve
this
edge,
so
that
there's
some
there's
some
debris.
I
would
say,
along
this
edge
of
the
property
that
would
be
cleaned
up.
There's
a
collar
of.
B
This
is
an
image
from
google
street
view
of
that
area.
I
don't
know
exactly
what
day
they
took
the
photo,
but
you
can
see
it's
pretty
pretty
overgrown.
The
path
is
not
particularly
clear.
It's
not
clear
that
there's
anywhere
to
go
down
that
route
and
we're
hoping
to
clean
that
up
a
bit,
make
it
a
bit
more
welcoming
and
put
some
signage
and
a
bike
right
through
here.
B
The
next
entry
is,
we've
got
his
hazel
mirror.
This
is
again
signage
and
a
bench
here,
some
of
these
boundary
markers
to
discourage
folks
from
cutting
around
down
this
way.
There
are
some
trees,
some
of
the
trees
that
that
paul
would
mention
at
the
beginning
that
he
might
take
out
before
this
contract
goes
to
bid
just
because
they
are
seemingly
dangerous
right
now.
Some
trees
through
here
that
might
get
taken
out,
and
we
could
plant
replant
in
here
again
a
threshold
of
more
tidy
planting
in
in
the
front.
B
So,
as
you
can
transition
from
the
city
into
the
urban
wild,
perhaps
getting
some
bulbs
in
there
and
then
the
last
entrance
is
weld
street.
Weld
street
is
also
a
paper
street.
This
is
morrison
street.
It's
a
private
street
which
means
that
there
needs
to
be
public
accessibility
across
this,
despite
the
fact
that
these
neighbors
have
interest
in
these
areas.
B
So
what
we're
proposing
is
no
signage,
no
structures,
anything
in
this
area,
but
painting
the
edge
of
this
driveway
with
a
green
path
that
you
might
see
say
on
a
bike
path
and
a
parks,
department,
logo
and
then
a
stone
dust
pass
through
here
and
then,
once
you
get
to
the
parks
property
proper,
putting
in
some
signage
there
that
you
might
be
able
to
see
from
the
street
just
to
make
anybody
walking
along
the
arboretum
feel
like
oh
that's
somewhere,
I
could
I
could
go
in,
and
that
is
the
broad
overview
of
what
we
are
doing
and
I
guess
we'll
open
up
to.
A
No,
I
would
just
the
only
thing
I
would
add
is
that
the
portion
of
the
restoration
on
near
hazelmere,
where
there
was
that
fill
that'll,
be
a
huge
chunk
of
the
budget,
removing
all
that
fill
bringing
in
grade
regrading
that
and
restoring
that
area.
That'll
be
a
really
really
big
piece
of
it.
The
only
other
thing
I'd
mention
is
well
street.
That
came
up
a
lot
in
the
first
meeting
right
jessica.
A
I
think
there
was
a
big
interest
in
making
that
more
cleaned
up
and
recognizable
as
an
entrance.
C
B
Okay,
so
should
I
keep
this
up,
I
can't
really
see
if
there
are
questions
or
raised
hands.
Let
me
show
you
seeing.
D
There
are,
there
was
one
question
that
asked
about
how
many
linear
feet
of
trail.
Do
we
know
total
and
ada
section,
and
is
there
a
benchmark,
trail
dollar
amount
per
linear
foot?
Are
we
prepared
to
answer
that
now
or
should
do
we?
I.
B
Would
have
to
stop
sharing
and
look
in
the
files,
so
I
don't
have
that.
D
A
One
one
thing
I
can
add,
while
while
we're
looking
at
that
is
tried
to
think
about
path
widths
and
what
was
really
what
were
the
existing
conditions,
so
the
existing
conditions
are
comparable
to
like
to
a
foot
path
right,
so
we're
thinking
of
the
new.
The
new
paths
that'll
join
in
with
the
existing
would
be
the
same
width.
So
you'd
have
roughly
like
three
feet
with
a
foot
on
either
side,
so
that
would
be
like
that
would
kind
of
make
it
feel
consistent.
A
D
D
A
Okay,
so
for
the
for
the
restoration
pieces,
you
know
when
we're
removing
or
trying
to
reduce
invasive
plants
and
restore
plant
communities,
we're
also
looking
at
diversity
of
habitat
right.
So
it's
not
just
one
landscape
type,
so
coniston,
which
is
very
upland.
A
I
mean
you
are
street
side
we're
looking
at
grasses
and
forbs,
so
flowering
plants
and
grasses
there
in
the
other
areas
we're
looking
at
remember
the
margin
between
the
actual
wetland
and
the
property
boundary,
and
some
of
these
areas
is
very,
very
narrow,
so
we're
you
know,
for
example,
like
coming
in
at
selwyn
or
hazelmere,
for
that
matter.
We're
looking
at
plants
that
what's
really
going
to
complement,
that
wetland
edge.
A
So
these
are
plants
that
a
lot
of
shrubs
right,
that's
the
that's
the
the
layer
of
the
plant,
that's
the
most
impacted
layer
of
the
whole
system,
so
we'll
be
looking
to
do.
These
would
be
wetland
shrubs
along
the
edge.
They
could
be
live
stakes.
They
could
be
things
like
red,
ozil,
dogwood,
willow
things
that
can
be
economically.
That's
the
other
thing
too.
We're
trying
to
watch
costs
right
so
for
for
meadow
grasses
over
reconnaissance.
That's
very
economical
for
the
wetland
areas
trying
to
look
at
shrub
and
smaller
trees.
B
A
Trees
that
are
are
introduced.
Remember:
we've
got
a
lot
of
trees
down
there.
We
want
to
think
about
trees
that
are
are
compatible
right
that
are
more
understory
trees.
I
think
jessica.
We
might
have
a
plant
palette
already.
B
Yes,
some
of
the
things
that
we're
considering
are
for
trees
are
service,
ferry,
the
america
canadensis
we've
got
speckled
alder,
red
maple,
sugar,
maple,
eastern
red
cedar,
black
gum,
american
hormone
beans,
swamp
white
oak
pin
oak.
Those
are
some
of
the
trees
that
we're
considering
and
for
shrubs.
A
few
of
the
shrubs
that
we're
considering
are
clever
on
the
folio,
the
sweet,
pepper
bush
button,
bush
cephalic,
cephalanthus
oxidantalis
we've
got
the
silky
dogwood
cornice,
ammo,
cornucerica,
red
oster,
dogwood
and
and
witch
hazel.
B
A
And
we're
keeping
in
mind
too
things
like
which
ones
are
the
really
hardiest
of
the
natives
right
where
we
do
have
wet
areas
which
which
plants
have
wet
feet,
which
ones
are
going
to
really
thrive
there.
Looking
at
things
that
are
in
the
upland
areas:
drought,
tolerant,
tolerant
of
deer
foraging,
so
those
are
all
going
into
the
mix.
I
think
in
our
considerations.
D
So
the
next
question
tom-
perhaps
you
could
respond
to
it's.
Can
you
clarify
how
you
plan
to
eradicate
the
garlic
mustard
this
year
it
seemed
pretty
aggressive.
C
Okay,
so
as
as
I
think,
we've
already
talked
about,
the
budget
only
goes
so
far.
What
we're
doing
with
the
invasive
protocol
is
we're
trying
to
focus
on
those
areas
that
I
think
we've
gone
over
in
the
presentation
and
in
our
permitting.
C
We
are
including
methodologies
that
I
think
are
best
adapted
for
volunteer
activities.
Garlic
mustard
is
an
annual,
so
it's
best
dealt
with
by
large
groups
of
people
pulling
plants.
It's
not
really
well
suited
for
being
controlled
by
a
contractor
during
a
limited
duration.
So
what
we're
going
to
be
doing
in
the
permitting
with
the
boston
conservation
commission
is
permitting
not
just
the
methodologies
of
removal
and
replacement
for
the
project,
but
also,
but
also
longer
term,
that
can
be
used
with
volunteers
or
park
staff.
C
I
see
some
areas
of
garlic
mustard,
depending
on
where
the
budget
allows
we
may
be
able
to
tackle
during
the
project,
but
I
do
see
that
as
one
of
the
plants
that's
better
suited
for
a
longer
term
control
using
volunteer
groups
on
an
annual
basis.
If
we
can
pull
it
before
the
seed
pops,
you
can
actually
get
rid
of
it
pretty
quickly.
If
you
have
enough
people
pulling.
D
Great,
thank
you.
So
the
next
question
is
the
the
plans
are
attractive.
Could
you
talk
about
the
rear
of
108,
walter
and
public
access
from
walter
street?
This
seems
like
an
omission.
A
Right
exactly
you're
right
when
this,
when
this
contract
went
out
to
bid
for
design
services,
it
was
you
know,
under
the
existing
scenario,
where
108
still
privately
owned.
D
Okay,
there
was
a
second
question
about
that
as
well,
so
hopefully
suzanne
that
answered
yours
as
well.
The
next
question
is,
could
you
talk
about
how
you
accounted
for
bwsc,
easement
from
coniston
road
and
the
one
from
walter.
B
So
they
have
those
are
paper
streets
and
they
have
a
right-of-way,
and
we
had
a
meeting
with
the
boston
line
of
super
commission.
B
Just
to
make
sure
we
understood
what
what
we
to
coordinate
what
they
might
need
to
do
as
far
as
maintenance
over
the
years
and
what
we
were
trying
to
build
to
try
and
make
sure
that
a
we
weren't
going
to
put
anything
in
that
was
going
to
be
disruptive
to
their
work
and
b
to
make
sure
that
if
they
were
doing
any
work
that
we
could
coordinate
the
schedules,
so
they
have
been
in
the
process
of
scoping
their
lines
over
there
to
make
sure
that
if
they
have
any
work
they
do
need
to
do.
B
D
That
this
is
a
great
question.
The
next
one
is,
could
you
say
a
little
bit
about
plans
for
access
to
the
trails
during
the
restoration.
A
I
think
we
anticipate-
and
I
want
to
hear
from
the
design
team
too,
that
that
if
this
project
is
in
fact,
successfully
permitted
and
put
out
to
bid
to
allow
us
to
start
next
april
or
may
that
the
contractor
would
really
need
the
site
to
be
temporarily
closed,
a
lot
for
safety
and
liability
so
that
the
work
could
get
done.
We'd
need
to
work
with
the
contractor
on
the
sequencing.
What
parts
of
the
property
are
worked
on?
First,
maybe
there's
a
possibility
to
keep
some
open.
D
I
I
mean,
I
think
it
is
a
huge
factor
on
the
means
and
methods
of
the
contractor
that
is
selected,
and
so
there's
gonna
be
times
where
we're
to
be
really
focused
on
some
of
the
invasives
on
one
part
of
the
site
and
there's
not
much.
We
can
do
until
the
second
round
of
that
growth
happens,
and
so
we
could
focus
then
on
working
on
another
part
of
the
site.
D
But
again
we'll
have
to
really
wait
to
see
what
the
the
sequencing
for
the
contractors,
because,
if
we
just
don't
want
them
to,
they
may
not
want
to
do
this
in
phases.
So
it's
sort
of
like
all
trail
works,
gonna
happen
at
the
same
time,
and
so
for
that
period
of
time
the
it
might
be
closed
off.
But
if,
if
we're
doing
only
invasives
for
a
month,
then
the
part
of
it
could
still
be
open.
D
The
next
question
is:
how
are
you
going
to
establish
priorities
for
the
budget
jessica?
Do
you
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
because
you,
you
had
already
mentioned
a
couple
things
that
are
the
the
sort
of
the
the
top
priority
and
then
other
things.
That
would
be
add.
Alternates.
B
Yeah,
I
think
that
and
paul
correct
me
if
I'm
I'm
wrong,
but
I
think
the
way
that
we've
been
talking
about
this
is
that
there
are
certain
things
that
are
capital
improvements,
that
a
contractor
can
just
get
done,
and
then
there
are
pieces,
that
of
the
restoration
that
a
contractor
can
get
started,
and
then
there
are
pieces
that
are
longer
term,
and
I
think
that
one
of
the
ways
that
we're
prioritizing
is
getting
that
one
and
done
stuff
done,
because
there
are
a
lot
more
options
on
how
to
approach
that
other
stuff
in
the
future,
including
volunteer,
labor,
etc.
B
So
I
think
the
the
first
round
of
priorities
is
the
trail.
The
trail
work,
the
tree
work,
the
and
the
replanting
work
for
that
tree
work.
Now.
One
of
the
things
I
mentioned
as
an
ad
alternate
was
say
that
spur
that
that
goes
out
into
the
wetland
from
coniston
street.
That
is
something
that
very
easily
could
just
not
be
done,
and
so
that
one
we're
gonna
call.
We've
talked
about
calling
an
ad
alternate,
which
means
if
we
get
everything
else.
B
First,
everything
else
that
we
want
that'll
be
the
last
thing
that
we
add
back
in.
If
there's
money,
I'm
not
sure
that
there
was
because
the
budget
is
actually
looking
preliminarily
like
we
can
do
what
we've
shown
you
today,
I'm
not
sure
we're
not
overstuffing
that
category
of
what
can
we
just
leave
out
completely
because
the
rest
of
it
really
is
needed
for
making
that
loop,
which
is
the
loop,
is
a
high
priority.
A
No,
I
don't
think
so.
I
think
we
tried
to
keep
this.
You
know
minimal
impact
trying
to
address
the
most
important
things
so
there
there
aren't.
There
aren't
a
lot
of
extras,
but
I
do
think
that
turnpike
that
you
just
mentioned
would
be
the
could
be
the
first
thing
to
go.
If
need
be,.
D
B
We
are
planning
to
address
them
yeah.
I
don't
know
about
all
if
we're
going
to
be
able
to
afford
or
address
all,
but
that's
the
same
answer.
It
is
for
all
of
the
invasives,
but
there
is
taking
down
a
number
of
those
and
replanting
that
area
with
natives
is
definitely
in
the
plan.
D
Okay,
the
next
question
is
the
conservation
housing
effort
at
108
and
104
walter
seems
to
be
moving
along
well,
there
may
be
an
opportunity
for
an
additional
parallel
project
when
machinery
is
mobilized
during
the
104
walter
review
development
that
could
remove
invasives
regrade
paths
create
new
pedestrian
access
and
signage
at
108
walter
paul.
If
you
feel
you've
already
answered
that
we
can,
we
can
move
on.
A
Remember
with
the
weather
and
the
site,
the
wetland
constraints
so
we'll
have
to
weigh
everything
out
and
see
what's
happening
on
that
108
walter
street,
but
obviously
where
we
can
coordinate
for
efficiencies,
makes
the
most
sense.
That's
why
we
were
coordinating
with
water
and
sewer
about
that
agency,
doing
an
investigation
of
the
the
sewer
lines
coming
in
to
104
now
so
so
I
think.
That's
that's
what
that's?
How
we'll
approach
that.
D
The
next
question
is:
you,
haven't
mentioned
buckthorn,
which
is
coming
in
more
in
various
places
and
then
again
the
mature
caster
aurelia
trees
continue
to
seed
along
eastern
path.
Will
they
be
cut
and
treated.
A
I
think
I
think
you
know
of
the
35,
I'm
sorry
of
the
30
urban
wilds
throughout
the
city.
I
think
roslindale
is
probably
second
to
one
other
site,
probably
the
most
disturbed.
So
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
do
with
invasive
plant
management
and
we'll
have
to
really
be
strategic
in
how
we
go
about
and
prioritize.
I
think
when
we
were
looking
at
this
right
design
team,
we
were
looking
at
the
entrances,
the
wetland
edge.
I
mean
that
at
the
core.
That's
what
this
project
is
a
wetland
edge.
A
We
know
there's
a
lot
of
upland
at
walter
street.
We
want
to
do
that
too.
We'll
just
have
to
be
mindful,
and
maybe
we
can
talk
about
this
with
the
design
team
about
you
know.
Do
we
have
an
allotment,
multiple
allotments
for
invasive
plant
management?
How
do
we
go
about
doing
that?
So
we'll
we'll
we'll
see?
A
I
think
that
mass
audubon
report
was
really
helpful,
though,
for
us
trying
to
assess
where
these
invasive
plant
communities
were
and
populations
were,
and
you
know
how
we
could
start
to
tackle
them,
and
I
think
autobahn
had
kind
of
suggested,
try
to
work
from
the
wetland
out
right
and
you
know
kind
of
you're
doing
all
putting
all
this
effort
into
restoring
the
wetlands
get
that
wet
edge
between
the
trail
and
the
wetland
under
control.
First
and
then
radiate
outward
so
we
will
see,
but
we
want
to
get
as
much
done
as
we
can.
D
So
the
next
question
these
are
design
questions
for
all
urban
wilds.
Can
you
briefly
address
as
applicable?
Are
there
viewing
platforms
with
bench
seating
like
at
belle,
island
marsh.
D
A
Right:
okay,.
A
I
think
that's
a
key
feature
of
this
too
right
we're
spending
a
lot
of
effort
trying
to
enhance
wildlife
habitat,
and
I
think
that,
obviously,
with
this
boardwalk
between
eldon
and
hazelmere
that'll
be
a
vantage
point
where
at
which
you
can
see.
Certainly
while
I
can
get
glimpses
of
you
know
some
parts
of
the
site
that
are
more
hidden,
I
think
the
turnpike
that
jessica
spoke
of
that
is
an
area
to,
and
it's
already
that
this
is
like
a
water
and
sewer
easement
where
they
have
infrastructure.
A
So
it's
already
developed
so
to
speak
right.
But
that
is
an
area
where
you
walk
out
and
you
you
do
get
a
almost
like
a
180,
I
would
say
vista
yeah
of
the
wetlands.
So
those
are
two-
and
I
I
want
to
say:
is
there
a
bench
over
by
behind
the
houses
on
coniston?
I
want
this.
I
think,
there's
a
bench
on
that
side
right.
B
The
benches
right
now
are
at
the
entries.
There
wasn't
a
lot
of
interest
in
the
last
time
of
having
them
throughout.
There
is
one
other
lookout
point
which
is
down
by
the
wet
meadow.
Maybe
I
should
share
again
share
my
screen.
B
So
this
is
the
the
turnpike
we've
been
talking
about
as
a
thing
that
might
be
one
of
the
first
things
to
go,
but
it's
also
a
place
where
you
can
get
out
and
look
around
and
have
this
this
bigger
view
of
the
of
the
wetland
there
is
there
is
this
boardwalk,
which
is,
I
think,
going
to
be
really
special,
because
that
you
are
crossing
open
water,
sometimes
across
that
the
third
one
would
be
there
the
end
of
this
accessible
route.
B
I
think
the
the
view
of
the
wet
meadow
down
there
is
pretty
good
from
that
spot,
but
the
benches
are
more
by
the
entry
this
one
this
bench
is,
is
nicely
situated
too
to
this
to
this
piece
of
the
wetland,
I
think
there
was
some
concern
about
just
an
eyes
on
the
part,
not
that
it's
a
park
but
an
eyes
on
the
street
sort
of
sensibility
about
where
the
benches
are
so
they're
near
the
entries.
A
A
You
know
relative
it
again
like
coming
in
on
by
hazelmere
talking
about
a
you
know
three
foot
wide
with
a
stone,
duster
soil
path
with
a
low
fescue,
edging
one
foot
edging
on
either
side
to
make
four
or
five
feet.
That's
that's
pretty
modest!
So
that's
a
that's
a
real
minimal
intervention.
A
I
think
a
big
planting
budget,
so
you
know
I
was
over
there
yesterday
and
looking
at
all
those
mature
trees
that
had
gone
down
through
that
microburst
or
whatever
it
was,
and
I
think
you
know
we're
going
to
be
adding
a
lot
of
trees
and
we'll
need
to
be
strategic
because
we
want
to
plant
trees.
We
don't
want
to
plant
trees
that
are
huge
right
next
to
houses.
We
want
to
plant
trees
that
are
going
to.
A
You
know
not
pose
a
huge
threat
down
the
road
at
this,
this
site,
more
than
any
other
urban
wild,
we're
constantly
chasing
down
downed
trees
due
to
storms,
and
we
want
to
really
be
strategic
with
the
placement
of
these
trees,
but
we
we
know
that
we
need
to
where,
where
those
trees
are
being
removed,
we're
going
for
at
least
a
two
to
one
replacement.
I
think
right,
jessica.
D
A
Yes,
so
the
the
surveying
yeah
so
we're
we're
going
to
be
trying
to
trying
to
address
those
things.
A
You
know
we
had
the
the
two
of
the
biggest
damage
points
for
the
property
were
on
that
restoration
area
on
the
graphic
which
says,
remove,
fill
and
restore
woodland,
so
that
area
we
will
be
putting
in
a
protective
fence
there
so
that
you
know
this
investment
will
be
protected
and
then
other
areas
there's
just
some
minor
approachment-
that
we've
got
to
work
out
but
that'll,
but
the
city
is,
is-
is
actively
trying
to
work
on
these
things.
A
We've
got
the
property
manager,
the
design
and
then
the
maintenance
so
trying
to
juggle
all
these
things.
B
B
We
heard
last
time
that
there
was
an
interest
in
a
lot
of
signage
that,
once
you
were
in
the
wetland
you
wanted
to
just
be
in
the
wetland
and
not
have
somebody
trying
to
teach
you
something
or
point
anything
out
to
use,
but
there
is
need
for
identity
signage
at
the
at
the
entry,
so
people
know
where
they
are
and
where
they're
going
and
know
what
the
rules
are,
such
as
no
dog
walking,
and
that
we
are
going
to
limit
the
interpretive
signage
to
the
two,
what
we
think
of
as
the
main
entries
that
hazelmere
and
so
on,
because
there
is
value
in
terms
of
you
know
what
is
this
place
and
what
does
it
do
for
the
urban
environment
to
have
a
place
like
this
cleaning,
the
water
before
it
goes
back
out
into
the
system
providing
habitat,
providing
all
those
benefits?
A
Yeah,
I
think
those
signs
will
be
clear
and
in
for
residents
and
friends,
you
know
when
we
do
finish
the
work
with
the
contract
and
the
signs
are
up.
That
would
be
a
good
time
for
all
of
us
to
kind
of
work
together
and
just
remind
people
who
may
not
be
aware
about
leash
laws.
A
I
was
there
today
and
there
was
a
coyote
on
site
and
someone
had
a
dog
off
leash
running
into
the
middle
of
the
wetland,
so
needs
to
be
a
little
bit
of
an
education
process
and
that's
why
we
hired
audubon
to
really
frame
this
project
in
this
site
and
with
that
being
a
big
consideration,
you
know
wildlife
and
plant
habitat.
So
this
is
more
of
a
sanctuary
here.
We're
trying
to
restore.
D
C
C
It's
really
the
method
of
application
of
of
the
herbicide
that
is
going
to
change,
depending
on
the
condition.
In
some
places
we
have
a
monoculture
of
not
we
did
fairly
dense
and
we
don't
have
non-target
species
in
those
areas.
C
It
would
be
a
low
pressure,
backpack
spray
application
of
either
rodeo
or
habitat,
which
are
two
aquatic
safe
herbicides
that
would
be
applied
to
new
growth,
so
we
would
cut
out
any
dead
if
it's
a
spring
application,
we
cut
out
any
dead
material
and
then
we
would
apply
it
to
the
fresh
growth
in
areas
where
the
knot
wheat
is
more
scattered
in
in
and
amongst
other
plants.
There
are
two
protocols
that
are
currently
in
the
in
the
draft
invasive
plan.
C
For,
for
those
one
is
a
method
called
the
bloody
glove
which
is
where
you
have
a
cotton
glove
on
the
outside
of
a
rubber
glove,
and
you
essentially
directly
apply
with
no
with
no
impacts
to
non-target
plants.
The
herbicide
and
another
would
be
to
stem
inject
down
below
the
bottom
joint
on
the
not
wheat,
the
idea
in
all
of
those
cases.
C
D
Right
a
question
from
janet
forrester
choosing
the
plants.
Is
there
any
benefit
of
looking
at
which
of
our
previous
plantings
have
done
well,.
A
Yes,
that's
a
great
idea,
in
fact
the
when
the
when
I
brought
the
design
team
out
to
look
at
this
back
in
march.
We
looked
at
that
what
we
called
shady
grove
over
coming
in
by
the
hazelmere
entrance-
and
you
know
those
are
all
2008
vintage
trees
and
we
we
looked
at
the
tree
species
and
I
think
we
should
look
at
it
again.
A
We
had
like
we
had
a
high
success
rate
for
many
of
those
plants
and
we
want
to
we
have
already,
but
I'd
like
to
go
back
and
look
again
at
those
specific
species
and
see
which
ones
have
grown,
some
of
them
at
incredible
growth
rates
and
when
we
do
the
new
plantings
I
was
talking
with
jessica
today
about.
Could
we
stagger
the
sizes
of
these
plants
to
rep?
A
Try
to
you
know,
suggest
a
you
know,
a
native
natural
system
where
you've
got
plants
at
different
ages
in
the
system,
letting
light
into
the
system
so
they're,
not
all
the
same
size.
So
we'll
look
at
that
too,
but
that's
a
great
idea.
D
The
next
question
is:
how
does
adding
a
walter
street
entrance
affect
the
hierarchy
of
entrances
from
a
design
perspective?
It
seems
like
walter
street
would
be
a
primary
public
access.
A
That
that's
a
that's
a
good
question.
I
think
that
it's
interesting,
I
know
roslindale
residents
and
other
local
residents
who
you
know-
and
I've
mentioned
this
site.
They
said
where
is
that
I've
never
seen
that
I've
never
and,
of
course,
the
the
it's
very
hidden
being
surrounded
by
houses.
I
think
when
we
did
the
survey
with
the
community
we
found
and
jessica
corrected
from
wrong
or
right
that
selwyn
was
the
major
access
point
and
hazelmere
was
the
major
exit
point
and
that
was
kind
of
it.
A
I
think
the
advantage
on
walter
street
is
that
it's
it's
a
more
highly
trafficked
site.
It's
not
great
that
it's
a
low
point
and
it's
at
a
corner,
but
I'd
be
curious
to
see
what
the
design
team
thinks
about
that.
B
I
think
the
important
thing
since
we
haven't
really
looked
at
that
in
earnest
at
this
point
is
that
we're
not
being
particularly
loud
at
any
of
these
entrances
so
to
say
that
that
one
would
be
say
we
wanted
to
make
it
the
main
entrance
as
a
greater
hierarchy.
There's
not
a
whole
lot.
You'd
have
to
do
to
be
more
noticeable
than
what
we
are
doing
because
we're
trying
to
be
so
subtle.
B
So
you
know
it
could
be
of
equal
hierarchy
with
selwyn
and
hazelmere
and
just
have
a
small
sign
or
it
could
very
easily
be
greater
hierarchy
and
have
more
or
lesser
hierarchy,
and
not
the
smaller
sign
that
we
have
at
the
other.
So
I
think,
because
everything
we're
doing
is
so
minimal.
D
Okay,
the
next
question
is:
there
are
two
or
three
stretches
of
trail
that
are
almost
impassable
muddy
during
the
spring.
Do
I
understand
the
plans
to
include
some
kind
of
reliable
dry
spans
over
these
areas,
as
were
shown
in
an
early
photo?
Yes,
those
bog
bridges.
B
So
they're
they're,
these
brown
runs
there's
quite
a
bit
of
it,
but
these
these
will
be
on
we've
got
them
designed
on
concrete
sleepers.
So
just
like
a
six
foot,
six
inch,
paver,
sorry
that
these
are
spanning
across
so
the
wood's,
not
in
the
ground.
The
sleepers
will
be
on
in
aggregate,
so
they
should
stay
put
and
and
you'll
have
you'll
have,
and
then
these
these
will
span
the
muddy
parts.
So
the
water
can
still
pass
underneath.
A
One
one
thing
I'd
like
to
look
at
with
the
design
team
is,
is
the
the
wood
and
how
can
you
make
traction?
How
can
you
you
know,
improve
traction?
We've
done
some
boardwalks
at
some
other
areas,
and
some
of
them
can
get
a
little
slippery.
So
maybe
there's
some
texturing
that
can
happen
as
well.
B
D
All
right,
the
next
question
is
once
the
project
is
complete.
Will
there
be
funding
for
maintenance.
A
Yes,
so
so
what
we'll
do
is,
I
think
you
know
the
invasive
plants
are
going
to
be
with
us
for
a
long
while,
and
I
think
what
we'll
need
to
do
is
we'll.
As
we
talked
about
try
to
combine
our
efforts
doing,
I
think
it
will
definitely
need
some
professional
invasive
plant
management
for
a
few
years,
at
least,
and
that
will
contract
out.
As
far
as
the
there
was
some
plants
that
could
be
part
of
a
volunteer
effort.
A
A
You
know
twice
a
year
kind
of
a
general
cleanup,
but
there
we
have
a
small
budget
that
was
approved
for
this
fiscal
year,
but
it's
very
small
and
we
have
to
be
strategic.
For
example,
I
got
quotes
on
the
tree
work
from
the
storm
damage.
A
Almost
one
was
in
the
order
of
ten
thousand
dollars,
so
we'll
have
to
weigh
these
things,
but
but
yeah.
This
will
definitely
be
a
hybrid
approach.
Right
we'll
have
the
professional
contractor
applicator
for
the
invasive
plant
management,
we'd
love
to
do
a
couple
of
cleanups
with
the
wetlands
task
force,
if
they're
still
interested
we'll
bring
in
some
outside
volunteers,
but
we'll
also,
we,
the
city,
has
approved
the
creation
of
a
horticultural
position
permanent
that
can
be
filled
in
the
new
year,
so
that
person
would
be
part
of
the
maintenance
equation.
A
I
think
that
the
that
that
area
of
grassland
meadow
that
will
attract
insects
that
certainly
could
help
with
the
help
with
the
mosquito
population.
Also,
I
I
mean
the
design
team
will
remember
that
the
audubon
report
gave
some
different
suggestions
about
mosquito
control
and
that
could
relate
from
anything
from.
A
Monitoring
the
catch
basins
near
the
entrance.
I
think
there
are
these
discs
that
can
be
placed
in
the
catch
basins
to
control
the
larva
mosquito
larvae.
So
that's
one
thing
that
can
be
done
again:
that
grassland
meadow
hopefully
attract
more
mosquito
eating
insects
and
then
there's
it's
some
other
sites.
We've
looked
at
the
idea
of
bat
boxes
as
a
mosquito
control,
so
there's
there's
a
few
different
things
we
could
we
can
we
can.
We
can
do.
A
I
don't
know
me
sure
jessica.
You
want
to
add
anything,
but
those
are
just
some
some
general
things
we
want.
I
think
we
want.
We
want
the
site
to
be
more,
I
think,
by
removing
the
invasive
plants
right
two
will
have.
There
will
be
more
circulation
of
air
through
the
system
and
you
won't
get
it's
where
it
stagnates
and
gets
caught
that
that
makes
it
rife
perfect
conditions
for
mosquitoes.
A
D
So
the
next
question
is
any
chance
of
putting
in
a
few
well-suited
native
wildflower
species
in
a
few
particular
suitable
areas.
Yes,.
B
D
Next
question
is:
do
you
plan
on
keeping
snag
trees
as
nesting
cavities
or
removing,
because
they
are
dangerous?
There
are
numerous
woodpeckers
who
rely
on
snags
for
nests
tom.
I
I
think,
if
you
want
to
talk
about
that,
that
would
be
great.
We
are
definitely
keeping
trees
that
stay
there
and
and
will
sometimes
fall
down,
but
any
tree
that
might
fall
down
on
a
path
we
are
gonna,
be
removing.
But
tom,
do
you
wanna
talk.
B
About
I,
what
we
have
in
the
plan
is
definitely
a
certain
number
of
the
trees
being
cut
to
12
feet
so
that
they
are
low
enough
to
not
cause
a
hazard
if
they're
close
to
the
trail.
We're
not
first
of
all
we're
not
cutting
trees
that
aren't
close
to
the
trail.
B
So
any
snags
that
are
off
the
trail
and
in
the
wetlands
will
remain
we'll
we'll
be
cutting
hazardous
trees
on
the
perimeter
down
to
stumps
so
that
there
aren't
hazards
to
people's
houses
and
by
the
trails
we've
got
a
provision
that
we
can
cut
them
to
12
feet
so
that
they
don't
so
that
the
habitat
is
still
there.
We're
not
they're,
not
hazardous.
So
that's!
What's
in
the
drawing
like
tom.
C
Yeah
I
mean
we'll
be
we'll
be
girdling,
norway,
maples
and
and
emmer
cork
and
and
the
other
invasive
trees
that
are
out
there
and
as
as
just
noted,
you
know
if,
if
they're
close
to
the
trail,
if
they're
a
hazard
they'd
go
if
they
can
be
made
safe
by
topping
them,
they
would
stay
and
if
they're
far
enough
away
from
the
trail,
we'll
just
leave
them
and
they
become
habitat.
C
D
A
That's
an
interesting,
interesting
thought:
the
oh
and
they
you
know
where
you
do
have
these
areas
that
are
just
one
plant,
certainly
they're
non-selective,
so
they
go
for
they
go
for.
We
use
them
in
a
slight
hyde
park
and
they
they
they
weren't
as
effective
at
getting
the
problem
plants
that
we
had
wanted,
which
in
that
case
was
poison
ivy.
A
But
that's
interesting
idea
that
we
know
that
the
franklin
park
zoo
this
wouldn't
work
for
this
site,
but
uses
japanese
knotweed
to
feed
the
giraffe
and
the
parks
department
is
looking
at
you
know.
Are
there
not
weed
areas
in
parks
that
are
not
near
these
wetland
resources
that
could
be
suitable?
But
that's
in
that's
an
interesting.
A
C
If
I
can
add
the
problem
with
goats
and
japanese
knotweed,
is
they
just
get
the
top
and
the
road's
still
there,
and
it
just
keeps
coming
and
coming
and
coming,
and
so
that's
very
difficult
but
paul,
as
you
noted,
depending
on
the
time
of
year,
the
knotweed
that
is
removed,
if
it's
pre-treatment
with
it
with
the
chemical,
can
actually
be
used
for
animal
feed.
And
if
we,
if
we
do
the
japanese
knotweed
later
in
the
year,
we
may
have
to
do
a
complete
cut.
C
D
A
I
don't,
I
don't
think
I
think
at
this
particular
location
in
the
city.
I
think
that
I
think,
with
these
this
restoration
work,
I
think
the
days
of
the
you
know:
illegal
nighttime
dumping
are
a
thing
of
the
past.
All
of
the
sites
are
open,
dawn
to
dusk.
There's
really
actually
not
supposed
to
be
use
after
after
dark,
and
I
don't
know
if
lighting
came
up
in
any
in
the
first
community
meeting.
A
And,
of
course,
for
certain
amphibians
salamanders,
you
know
their
migration,
the
less
lighting
is
better.
That's
just
something
to
consider.
I
don't
know
if
it
was
there
a
concern
on
about
security
with
lighting.
Perhaps.
D
I
I
just
I
have
to
agree
with
that,
like
one
of
the
one
of
the
worst
things
for
the
you
know
in
environmental
wetland
areas-
and
I
mean
even
in
other
places-
is
lighting
because
it
just
messes
with
the
nocturnal
node
like
yeah
salamanders,
like
lots
of
things,
get
thrown
off
with
lighting.
So
and
with
the
park
being
closed,
you
know
after
dusk.
B
D
Correct
all
right
that
this
is
a
comment.
Mustard
weed
removal
is
easy
and
very
satisfying.
So
a
good
choice
for
volunteers,
not
weed
not
so
much.
So
that's
exactly
that's
the
exactly
the
direction
we're
going
in
here.
D
Okay,
the
last
question,
I
believe,
is
one
solution
for
mosquito
control.
The
little
guppy
I'm
gonna
pronounce
this
wrong
poem.
Celia
rectilada
has
developed
a
big
reputation
for
decades.
The
fish
has
been
championed
as
a
mosquito
fighter
and
dumped
into
ponds
and
ditches
to
eat
up
the
insect
larvae.
Would
this
be
a
suitable
solution?
C
I'm
not
familiar
with
that
particular
fish,
but
what
I
can
tell
you
is
that
when
you
walk
into
roslindale
wetlands
urban
wild
and
you
look
around,
there
are
a
number
of
areas
that,
if
you
were
in
the
middle
of
the
woods
of
new
hampshire,
you
would
think
you
were
looking
right
at
a
vernal
pool
and
currently
we're
not.
C
We
did
spend
a
good
half
a
day
out
there
trying
to
find
vernal
pool
species
and
we
did
not
find
any,
but
the
longer
term
goal
I
would
have
would
be
to
try
to
improve
water
quality
in
this
area
in
a
way
that
maybe
it
could
support
amphibians.
You
know
a
large
population
of
frogs,
those
those
don't
do
well
with
fish,
so
I
would
rather
encourage
native
amphibians
to
to
come
in
and
try
to
improve
water
quality
and
deal
with
it.
C
That
way,
things
like
bad
houses
might
be
a
good
alternative
and
maybe,
and
and
leaving
snags,
may
also
encourage
additional
birds
and
additional
you
know,
additional
bad
habitat.
That
way,
too,
I'm
not
familiar
in
particular
with
the
fish,
but
I
wouldn't
be
too
crazy
about
introducing
a
fish
in
there
because
I
feel
like
it
may
have
some
drawbacks
on
the
wetland
value
overall.
A
Oh,
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
know
that
I'm
I'm
not
sure
when
the
inventory
was
done
on
the
wildlife,
but
I
do
know
at
different
times,
and
certainly
in
the
spring
there
is
the
residents
have
seen
and-
and
I've
noticed,
like
you
know,
a
pretty
big
population
of
spring
peepers
and
other
types
of
of
amphibians.
But
some
of
them,
you
know
at
the
time
of
the
inventory-
may
not
have
been
as
present
visible
or
audible.
C
C
C
D
Okay,
so
at
this
point
the
last
question
is:
is
there
black
swallow
wart
in
the
wetland
and
how
to
remove
that?
Oh
another
question
came
in
too,
but
I
don't
believe
there's
black
swallow
wart
is
there.
C
D
D
Another
someone's
deb
is
saying:
I
have
not
seen
swallow
wart
in
there.
D
So
that's
good
nearby
on
weld
hill
is
black
swallow
wart,
so
good
to
keep
an
eye
on
that
yeah.
I
do
also.
I
I
also
think
of
black
swallow
wart
up
a
little
bit
higher
and
not
so
much
in
wetlands
is
is
that
is
that
right
I
mean
I'm
just
I'm.
I'm
used
to
seeing
it
more
up
up
on
higher
ground,
so
we
may
have
to
just
keep
an
eye
on
it
entering
in,
but
it's
so
far,
not
down
in
the
wet
part.
D
D
D
Suzanne
is
saying:
we
have
a
lot
of
black
swallow
wart
in
roslindale.
The
arb
did
some
work
with
a
moth
that
eats
it
so
again,
we'll
we'll
keep
an
eye
on
that
one.
It
so
far
hasn't
really
made
it
in.
But
of
course,
now
that
we
say
this,
we're
gonna
see
it
next
time
we
go,
but
hopefully
not.
D
Purple
martins
need
martin
houses.
Do
you
plan
on
placing
and
any
bird
houses?
I
think
we
should
think
about
that
with
the
bat
houses.
I
think
that
would
be
interesting.
A
Yeah,
I
think
it's
worth
considering.
I
remember
there
used
to
be
a
non-profit
called
earthworks
and
they
used
to
sponsor
the
task
force.
Members
will
remember
this
birding
events
with
the
brookline
birding
club
and
surprising
they
did
that
number
of
years,
and
I
remember
they
tracked
different
species,
and
I
remember
there
were
some
surprises
when
that
land
grant
was
filed
for
108
walter
street.
I
think
atlanta
had
found
out
that
some
interesting
bird
species
were
found
there,
but
I
think
that
would
be
definitely
worth
us
considering
yeah.
D
Maybe
yep,
I
think,
we're
actually
it
doesn't
seem.
It
seems
more
like
statements,
so
I'll,
just
sort
of
read
the
last
bits
here
and-
and
that
might
be
it
frank
says
less-
is
more
good,
minimal
design.
Thank
you
for
the
work
fallen
team.
Thank
you.
D
Swallow
ward
is
all
over
peters
hill
in
the
arb
and
everyone's
yards,
but
I
think
the
wetland
is
too
shady
and
a
bit
generally
too
wet
agree.
Thank
you.
Yes,
in
open
meadow
agree,
thank
you.
The
bws
storm
water
pipe
may
make
cleaning
the
water
more
difficult.
B
I
think
that
that's
worth
addressing
just
to
let
everybody
know
that
we
are
working
with
the
boston,
water
and
sewer
to
try
and
get
particle
separation
happening
on
the
two
inlets
that
are
are
going
in.
There
is
a
particle
separator
on
one
and
we're
doing
the
research
to
try
and
figure
out,
what's
happening
with
the
other
one,
and
then
make
sure
that
that
that
is
getting
cleaned
on
the
way
in.
D
D
Thank
you.
This
has
been
really
informative.
Thank
you
all
for
doing
this.
Thank
you
for
joining
us
kathy
mccabe
found
that
there
are
various
warbler
species
that
come
through
the
wetlands.
D
D
D
That's
rule!
Yes,
thank
you
for
your
work.
Thank
you
again
for
joining
us.
What's
next
jessica,
do
you
want
to
say
what's
next?
What's.
B
Next
is
we
file
with
the
file,
the
noi
with
the
conservation
commission
and
then
and
then
we'll
put
this
out
to
bed
and
hopefully
get
into
construction
in
the
spring?
B
That's
our
goal,
we'll
see
everything
seems
a
little
up
in
the
air
in
2020,
but
we
will
do
our
very
best.
D
A
D
D
B
We
are
going
for
an
rda
filing
the
first
portion
of
this,
which
is
an
rda
that
will
be
filed,
finished
was
filed
yesterday
and
to
say
that
this
is
not
an
isolated
wetland
and
not
a
bordering
vegetated
wetland
so
that
the
dep
will
not
be
involved.
So
it'll
be
a
single
filing
and
I
believe
we'll
do
that
on
the
next
filing
date.
Next,
one
we
can,
we
can
get
to.
