MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION <br />• TREE PRESERVATION WORK SESSION HELD SEPTEMBER 12,1997 <br />The golf course needed 190 acres of the 200 available acres to be developed. If the 40 acre Big <br />Woods had been protected, the golf course probably would have had to find another area. Lindquist <br />noted that tool would have been a woodland ordinance, not tree preservation. Lindquist suggested <br />Gaffron put together a policy that makes sense. <br />Van Zomeren asked Gaffron if the tools were currently available to get the best residential <br />development possible from the Saga Hill properties. Gaffron felt the City had many tools available <br />but they haven't been used in the past. Many of the ordinances are general and do not provide good <br />guidelines. Lindquist agreed. Gaffron expressed concern over the Saga Hill subdivision as the <br />proposed 1 acre lots, not clustered, would not be able to preserve the woods. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />The meeting adjourned at 9:40 a.m. <br />zoz-" <br />z <br />Dale Lindquis , Chair Pe n <br />�J <br />• 7 <br />
