A
So
it's
four
o'clock
and
I'll:
I
will
call
to
order
this
special
meeting
of
the
bloomington.
A
Board
of
park,
commissioners,
we
have
just
one
item
on
our
agenda
that
we
wanted
to.
A
So
jim
is,
of
course
well
no
one
can
replace
les
coyne,
but
stepping
into
the
role
that
the
less
had.
A
So
so
I
think
now
that
we
have
israel
here
as
well
kim,
can
you
could
you
do
the
roll
call
for.
B
Okay,
thank
you
all
right
great.
So
we
have
we
voted
previously
on
the
removal
of
some
trees.
A
Out
at
let
me
just
pull
this
up,
so
I
don't
get
any
of
these
details
wrong.
Cascades,
creek,.
A
Appeal
and
that
comes
from
miss
susan,
is
it
glowitz?
I
hope
I'm
not
mispronouncing,
that.
A
And
is,
is
susan
here?
Would
she
I
assume
just
to
check
to
see
if
she's
here
before
we
proceed.
C
A
I'll
just
susan
since
you're
you're
here,
if
you
want
to
maybe
just
kick
things
off
with.
A
C
C
C
C
C
C
For
you-
and
I
don't
expect
an
answer
today
and
then
one
one
point
that
I'd
like
to
share
with
you.
C
C
May
be
converted
to
a
non-traffic
road
so
using
it
can
be
used
for
pedestrians
and
bicyclists,
etc.
C
But
not
for
for
vehicular
traffic,
and
I
know
that's
still
in
conversation
there.
C
C
C
And
insects
and
bats
that
use
it
now,
so
I'm
just
kind
of
concerned
about
the
community.
C
C
C
C
A
So
I
think
maybe
the
next
logical
place
to
move
would
be
over
to
erin
hatch,
since
she
submitted.
A
The
original
information
to
us
so
aaron
do
you
want
to
address
some
of
those
questions.
D
Yes,
so
I
will
basically
read
from
my
staff
report
that
was
submitted
and
mostly.
D
Information,
I
think
I've
already
sent
along
to
susan
as
well,
but
basically
the
the
project.
D
D
There
which
actually
drastically
reduced
the
slated
tree
removals
down
to
the
current
23
total.
D
A
five-to-one
mitigation
ratio.
I
will
say
that
this
project
is
being
regulated
by.
D
D
So
that's
a
consideration
as
well.
The
trees
slated
to
be
replaced
are
a.
D
Very
diverse
mix
of
native
species,
I
think,
unfortunately,
a
thing
with
managing
forests
as.
D
Occurring
along
the
cascades
creek,
okay,
all
right,
thank
you!
Aaron
and
next
do
we
have.
A
E
First,
thank
you
board
for
coming
together
today,
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
susan
too,
for.
E
For
your
genuine
and
collegial
concern
throughout
the
process
and
your
patience
with.
E
Including
myself,
I've
been
with
the
department
for
about
a
month,
so
thank
you,
susan
for
that.
E
E
Picked
this
up,
you
know
in
the
last
month,
or
so
from
my
predecessor,
eagle
ridge,
consulting.
E
E
Into
this
project
you
know
with
this
project,
there
were
really
four
main
factors
to
weigh.
E
E
Where,
when
rain
falls
flows
into
the
cascades-
and
you
know
we
have
to
imagine
when
cascades
was.
E
In
this
area,
and
even
in
the
last
10
years,
if
we
think
about
what's
happened
around.
E
Flowing
into
cascades
because
of
more
and
more
non-permeable
surfaces
that
have
been
constructed.
E
E
Was
it
was
built
into
a
chute
many
many
years
ago?
The
water
has
nowhere
to
go.
E
It
funnels
it
increases
sedimentation,
downstream
and
degrades
the
quality
of
the
watershed.
Both.
E
E
E
In
the
winter,
you
can
see
some
very
serious
effects
where
the
wall
has
washed
away.
That.
E
E
E
E
Which
is
closer
to
the
sycamore
shelter
and
the
playground
was
actually
redesigned.
E
15-Foot
horizontal
impact
from
the
creek
bank,
it
was
redesigned,
so
it
only
has
about
a.
E
Specifically
because
the
desire
is
to
protect
the
big,
mature
trees-
and
you
know,
and.
E
The
other
factor
really
is
access.
You
know
as
a
recreation
space.
E
You
know
we're
going
to
alleviate
safety
concerns.
That's
where
the
worst
erosion
is
because.
E
And
we're
going
to
increase
access
by
being
able
to
have
this
accessible
path,
much
closer.
E
To
the
creek's
edge,
so
all
of
those
factors
have
been
weighed
in
with
the
tree
of
removals.
E
E
Up
to
the
waterfall
that
will
not
affect
any
trees
that
has
been
designed
specifically.
E
And
let
me
see
what
other
questions
do
you
have
aaron
kind
of
touched
on
the
slowing
down.
E
Some
of
the
trees
being
not
placed
at
the
site,
the
the
replanting
plan,
which
susan,
I
believe.
E
You
were
provided
with
from
aaron
as
well
plants
as
many
trees
right
there
as
possible,
but.
E
Due
to
the
five
to
one
ratio,
some
of
them
are
going
to
an
alternate
farther
north
side
still.
E
I
completely
understand,
but
I
just
I
just
want
to
reassure
the
board
and
susan
you
that
this.
E
Has
been
considered
in
weighed,
and
always
you
know
the
the
longevity
and
the
specialness.
A
F
Do
I
get
to
see
myself
or
not
sure
go
go
for
it?
I
think
if
you
have
that
you
can.
A
Change
up
your
video
yeah,
okay,
great
thanks;
okay,
I'm
laurel
cornell,
I'm
chair
of
the.
F
F
F
Like
ask
for
it
ask
for
a
change
to
our
plans.
Second
thing
is
I'd
like
to
invite
you
to
the.
F
F
F
F
F
Little
observatory,
place
is
kind
of
is
a
really
a
byproduct
of
this
erosion
control
project.
F
A
G
D
Non-Natives,
so
it
is
a
mix
there.
There
is
also
a
mix
in
terms
of
sizing
as
well.
D
Yeah,
so
if
you
look
at
the
design
of
the
project,
there's
kind
of
three
main
design
sections.
D
To
the
north
is
the
narrow
section
that
we've
referenced
in
the
middle
is,
I
guess,
what
would.
D
D
D
And
I
don't
know
yeah,
can
you
go
to
the
map?
At
the
beginning,
tim
there's,
a
drainage
pipe.
D
And
potential
increased
stress
specifically
considering
the
root
systems
and
how
far
they.
D
Expand
would
the
tree
be
able
to
survive
and
if
it's
retained,
there's
a
potential
that.
D
D
G
D
Two
and
a
half
inch
ball
and
burlap
tree,
so
not
small
saplings.
These
will
be
pretty.
D
Pretty
decently
sized
tree,
the
actual
height
will
vary
depending
on
the
species,
but
I
would
say.
G
That
susan
and
I
do
appreciate
your
presentation
and
the
bringing
this
before
us
and
and.
G
Deserves
consideration
and
I
appreciate
your
presentation,
but
that's
all
the
questions
I
have.
A
A
H
The
information
I
didn't
see
it,
but
if
there
was
a
sense
of
I
know,
we
have
115
that
are.
H
H
That
project
is
there
a
sense
of
how
many
were
removing
us
to
how
many
were
preserving.
D
D
But
that's
not
counting,
say
smaller
trees
or
anything
like
that.
So
I
don't
have
a
specific.
H
That's
good
to
know
too,
I
guess
yeah
I
mean
it
seems
like
there
was
a
real.
H
And
I
do
remember
this
presentation
that
we
reviewed
and
it
was
you
know
I
think.
H
We
probably
asked
some
questions
about
tree
removal
then,
but
just
got
a
real
good.
H
H
Years
so
yeah,
I,
I
have
a
good
understanding
of
that
and
susan.
I
I
also
want
to
just
say
thank
you.
H
H
H
Yeah-
and
I
know
this
has
been
a
year
of
loss,
but
I
hope
that
maybe
you
know
if
we.
H
Even
if
we
move
forward
with
the
plan,
as
is,
I
hope
that
you
know
there
will
be
some
really
lovely.
H
Up
and
asking
the
questions,
I
think
that
we
all
benefit
from
from
that
participation.
A
I
I
really
appreciate
susan
letting
us
know
about
your
concerns
in
in
the
importance
of.
I
You
know
like
conserving
trees,
but
also
I
see
the
the
the
side
of
preserving
you
know.
I
Our
parks
and
protection
of
the
of
the
site
and
finding
ways
to
how
to
to
compensate
the.
A
A
Knew
the
locations
I'd
be
like
that
tree
looks
fine,
you
know,
and
then
lee
would.
A
A
Some
of
the
erosion
out
there
not
recently
I
haven't
been
out
there
in
the
colder
weather,
but.
A
I
think
we
will
see
if
we
have
any
do
we
kim
do.
We
have
any
other
public
comment
on
this.
A
A
So
this
is
stated
as
an
appeal
of
the
proposed
tree
removals
so
I'll.
A
Call
for
a
motion
on
this.
This
appeal.
H
Yeah
go
ahead.
So
what
let
me,
let
me
see
what
yes
or
no
means
in
in
the
motion
like.
I
Present
the
language
kathleen
yeah,
I
think,
if
the
if
the
motion
is
presented.
A
A
So
that
would
right
the
motion
would
be
motion
to
deny
the
appeal
and
then
okay
yeah.
So,
okay,
all.
A
Right
so
ellen
or
jim,
if
you
want
to
go
ahead,
I'll
make
a
motion
or
was
that
emotion
or
was
it.
G
H
I
will
second
it
okay,
all
right,
all
those
in
favor.
Please
say
I
I
I.
A
Okay,
so
I
think
we
have
a
unanimous
vote
on
that,
so.
A
So
again,
we'll
proceed
with
what
was
suggested
there
by
the
department
for
the
project.
A
And
we
all,
as
we've
said,
we
all
really
appreciate
that.
So
thank
you
very
much.
C
C
C
C
Having
this
process
and
I'll
be
happy
to
check
out
what
the
tree
commission
is
doing
and
check.
C
And
concern
there
is
about
the
environment
here
so
again,
thank
you
for
entertaining.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much,
susan
paula
back
over
to
you.
Do
you
have
anything
else
to
add.
A
Before
we
adjourn
no
just
thank
you,
everyone
and
susan
again,
thank
you
for
participating
in.
J
The
process
and
for
board
members
for
making
the
time
to
hear
it
and
the
staff
and
laurel.
J
And
the
and
the
work
that
the
tree
commission
does
you
know
trees
are
near
and
dear
to
us.
J
And
you
know
it's
a
little
unusual
to
have
an
urban
forester
in
a
department
this
size,
but.
J
J
Removals
and
those
are
always
hard
discussions,
but
one
that
we
are
dedicated
and
focused
on.
J
When
we,
when
we
plan
these
projects-
and
you
know
looking
forward
and
and
I'll
just
say,
I've.
J
J
Starting
it
out,
but
we're
really
excited
about
this
project
and
what
the
end
product
will
be.
J
And
the
what
I
foresee
is
the
the
increase,
recreation
and
engagement
opportunities
for
people.
J
This
park
by
preserving
those
limestone
tables-
and
we
do
have
the
original
limestone.
J
Entry
columns
that
were
in
place
back
when
that
was
the
main
entry
into
bloomington,
so
there.
J
Will
be
a
celebration
to
embrace
the
history
of
that
park,
but
also
preparing
it
for
the
future.
