Open Space Advisory Board <br />Minutes <br />August 12th 2015 <br />Page 5 of 5 <br />liked the "fine print," since the Leave No Trace presentation last year taught us that <br />explaining the reasons for rules it will likely improve compliance and reduce phone call <br />questions to staff. Mike liked the border except when there is more detail, then it gets <br />too busy for him. Helen suggested that they be "punchier" or maybe there could be two <br />version of some signs (expository signs and more terse versions). The board seem to <br />like the bands on top, but didn't love the "REMINDER" category since it seemed sort of <br />wishy- washy, the board thought there only needed to be three categories. Laura asked <br />the board members if they'd like the mountains border more if it was smaller or fainter <br />( "watermarked "). Ember suggested that maybe she could ask the consultants to three <br />more mock ups: one with the mountains shown as a watermark, one with smaller <br />mountains, and one with no mountains but just a simple green band. The board liked <br />the icons, Missy commented that they will especially help if diverse bodies are making <br />the signs. <br />XI. Discussions Items for Next Meeting on September 9th — <br />A. Visit from Ranger Tom <br />B. Graduate Student Research Presentation <br />C. Presentation of Draft Preservation Master Plan by the Planning Department <br />D.

Helen asked Missy to draft a memo about acquisition alternative options and <br />conservation easements, and concerns about active property tracking that we could <br />share with City Council. She could send it to the board for review over email. Missy <br />asked for Chris' help with the document. <br />G. Helen asked Ember to arrange for the property review /ranking session for <br />maybe October. Helen asked Ember to look more closely at the map to get the status <br />on some of those mystery properties, if possible. <br />H. Jeff mentioned that City Council is going to look at boards and commissions in <br />October. They are going to look at possibly adding an advisory board for parks and /or <br />recreation, or possibly re- arrange a few of the boards' duties. <br />XII.
