5. POLICY BOARD BUSINESS <br />5.01: Tree Sale Discussion <br />Associate Planner/Environmental Coordinator Anderson presented the staff report and asked for <br />the Board's thoughts on the Tree Sale Program and whether to include offering shrubs as they <br />are available through Bailey Nurseries. <br />Chairperson Max asked how many people respond to the information in the newspaper versus <br />online. <br />Mr. Anderson stated that online submission is not available so residents needed to either use the <br />order form from the newsletter or print it out from the website send it in with payment. <br />Chairperson Max asked why they are putting it in the newsletter and wasting space. <br />Mr. Anderson stated approximately a third of the people who came brought the cutout from the <br />newsletter. He noted this year they will be accepting credit cards so it will be interesting to see <br />what the percentage will be. <br />Board Member Hiatt arrived at 6:48 p.m. <br />Associate Planner/Environmental Coordinator Anderson stated he will be making a selection of <br />approximately 10 tree species and some shrubs to sell. <br />Board Member Bentz asked if the smaller size trees would be better to sell because of the ease of <br />care. <br />Associate Planner/Environmental Coordinator Anderson stated as long as the root tips are kept <br />moist it does not matter what size the tree is. <br />Chairperson Max wondered if the burning bush was invasive. <br />Associate Planner/Environmental Coordinator Anderson noted it is not on the invasive species <br />list in Minnesota. <br />Chairperson Max indicated he liked the native understory species. <br />Board Member Bentz wondered if there was a way to link the name to a hyperlink on the website <br />to show residents what the tree looks like. <br />Associate Planner/Environmental Coordinator Anderson stated what goes up on the website will <br />have hyperlinks and will show pictures of the trees. He noted the tree book online does not have <br />hyperlinks yet but he was hoping in the future it will. <br />Chairperson Max noted they needed to be careful about linking to copyright information. <br />Environmental Policy Board / December 10, 2012 <br />Page 2 of 7 <br />
