02-02-93 v i TREE CONSERVATION BOARD Minutes of February 2, 1993 The Board met for its regular meeting on Monday, February 2, in the Conference Room of City Hall. Present were: Carolyn Woods, Chairman Thomas Frohne Jim Pelkey John Weldon, Jr. Hope Van Nortwick Staff: George Worley, Designee Carl Walker, Coordinator Guests: Andre Bahri, Vincent Barbera, Chuck Hardman, Bill and Lori Hanson The meeting was called to order by Carolyn Woods at 7:30 pm. The first application for consideration was for tree removal on property described as Lot # 20, Unit # 1, Oceanwalk. The builder, Mr. Hardman, presented a revision to the site plan to reflect that the proposed house had been moved further to the rear of the property. Discussion took place between the Board, Mr. Hardman, and Mr. and Mrs. Hanson, the property owners. It was noted that ap- proximately 168" of hardwood trees were to be removed, and 118" were to remain, according to the proposed plan. It was pointed out that the driveway could be relocated in an effort to save more trees, and there was concern expressed by the Board on the proposed removal of a 21" magnolia. Hope Van Nortwick moved to accept the plan as submitted with the exception that a 21" magnolia to the front of the lot be saved, and a total of 35" of hardwood trees, either existing or planted, be kept on the property, to be verified by the Board designee. John Weldon seconded the motion which passed unanimously. A short discussion and review took place on the second appli- cation filed for removal on Lot # 5, Oceanbreeze. Mr. Bahri and Mr. Barbera were present. Hope Van Nortwick moved to accept the plans, as proposed. Jim Pelkey seconded and the motion unanimously passed. In other business, the annual election of Board officers was held and Carolyn Woods and John Weldon were re-elected Chair- man and Secretary, respectively. The Board discussed the need for consistency of the marking of trees on property so that a determination could easily be made if those trees were proposed to be removed or were to be saved. The Board consensus was that red colored tape should be utilized for identification of trees proposed for removal. In addition, the footprint of the structure must be staked out on the property. These instructions are to be added to the application form. It was brought up that the next scheduled Board meeting will be February 15, a City holiday. Carl said he would be avail- able and the Board agreed to keep that meeting date. The minutes were read with Tom Frohne moving to accept them as written. Jim Pelkey seconded; the motion unanimously passed. With no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:31 pm. Res c ctfully( submitted, - 1A- L ) Jr. Weldon, Jr. Sec et ary • - L J -
