Planning and Zoning Commission <br />Minutes <br />November 9, 2021 <br />Mr. Pinto said who would check that? <br />The Chair assumes, that if we put a condition on the approval to close it, Staff would have to go <br />out at the end of that time frame and physically check it. <br />The Chair said Mr. Koch is shaking his head yes; so yes. <br />Mr. Koch wanted to make sure that Ms. Morris was agreeing with him because she is the one <br />who would have to go there. <br />Mr. Pinto said some of the places we walked were back in the sticks and all the straps were still <br />strangling the trees. It is another long walk. <br />; was the strapping an issue on the entire site or just along the road <br />frontages? Because he knows the road frontages, a lot of the natural buffer was completely gone. <br />The perimeter has some existing buffers. <br />Ms. Morris said the committee, to clarify, was specifically related to the road <br />frontages, where it was not being maintained. The committee really did not have an issue with <br />the other buffers not being maintained because those are closer to residential properties than the <br />ones on the road. <br />The issue of the strapping is all over the site; it is Canada, it is South America, it is everywhere. <br />In some cases, the overgrowth is so much that it would be difficult to get to them. Every time we <br />go out there it is eight miles around the perimeter. To go out there and spend three or four days <br />again, checking all of the strapping to see if it has been removed, is going to take some time. <br />Right now, everything is still green. It is very difficult to get around that site. She does not know <br />if there is a better time of year where that would be dead, and it would be easier to get around? <br />Maybe, if it was some time during the winter, it may be easier for us to get out there and look at <br />it. But again, it was not just one area. It is the entire site. <br />Mr. Stephen Wise said some type of strapping that was made to naturally decay on <br />plants like that. <br />Someone made a comment in the audience, but it was inaudible. <br />Mr. Brent Rockett asked Mr. Jansen to speak on what his intent is for the removal of the <br />strapping for the property. What did he indicate to the company that he is asking to perform <br />those duties? <br />Mr. Jansen said removal of all the strapping. <br />10 <br /> <br /> <br />
