<br />be selected. He wl::nt on to state that the tirst Saturday of May is the recycling day event, than <br />you get into the tishing openingl Motherls Day, Memorial Day und into summer and going any <br />earlier in the month wouldn't necessarily work becallse tree stock may not yet be available if the <br />grolmd is still frozen. <br /> <br />Environmental Coordinator Anderson stated that he would be contacting a cOllple of the tree sale <br />vendors about this and would report back to the Board whether another date could work or <br />whether the expo event may not include a tree sale this year. If so, the date of the event really <br />could be any time, it was really the tree sale component that tied the eyent to the end of April out <br />of necessity for bare root tree stock. <br /> <br />Chairperson Max stated that it could possibly be sometime in September which would be another <br />good time to plant trees. <br /> <br />Councilmember Wise stated that that is also the time when nurseries are trying to reduce their <br />inventories and trees could be at discounted prices. <br /> <br />Environmentlll Coordim\tor Andt::rson stated that those were both great points but that bare root <br />trees would still be much less expensive and they are mLlch easier for residents to move <br />themselves. Balled and burlap trees, especially larger ones, would actually require a bobcat or <br />other equipment to move them around, making it much less convenient for residents. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued again. It was ultimately agreed that the Board wOl.lld playa bigger role in <br />planning of the event and that Environmental Coordinator would report buck to the Board in <br />January the results of his discussions with some of the tree sale vendors. <br /> <br />Case #4: <br /> <br />Chair and Vice Chnir Terms <br /> <br />En vironmental Coordinator Anderson presented the staff report. <br /> <br />After some discussion about whether the work plan timeframe should match that of the officer <br />terms the consensus of the Board was to change the ofticer terms to April through March. <br /> <br />Motion by Board Member Stodola and seconded by Board Member Riley-Daniels to extend the <br />current officer terms through March of2010. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
