The Hennepin County application was approved. <br /> Mabusth reported that at the August 12, 2002 Council meeting, Attorney Galatz, for <br /> Stephenson's neighbor,brought in a sample of the size tree being planted on the slope. Which, <br /> in fact, seemed quite adequate to many of the Council members. The City Council incorporated <br /> some of the language from the Attorney's original document and approved the application. <br /> Gaffron added that the Stephenson's were required to plant 35 trees, including maples. The <br /> slope had settled enough by this point, that the slope was no longer an issue. <br /> Mabusth reported that Landform was directed to work with staff to resolve outstanding issues, <br /> draft a resolution, which approves their concept plans. <br /> PAGE 26 of 28 <br />
