As plans <br />progress through City Council approval and staff review, the committee will contact <br />HFAB for recommendations regarding landscaping, plant selection, and maintenance <br />concerns. <br /> <br />VII. Pergola Dedication—was attended by about 30 people, including City staff and HFAB <br />members. Weather was beautiful, lunch was good, site is well-maintained and sod is <br />established. Event was enjoyed by all. <br /> <br />VIII. Arboretum Planting Zones—In June, Chris had sent to HFAB members a map showing <br />the areas designated for various tree types. Mark commented that the map was helpful <br />for planning the family’s memorial. In general, tree species have been selected for <br />planting in the Arboretum based on hardiness in the rather harsh conditions, as well as a <br />trial setting for unusual or newly introduced species. <br /> <br />IX. Xeric Demonstration Garden Renovation—According to Dean, the project has been <br />entered as a 2014 CIP, and as such may be selected by City Council in November or <br />December of this year. If it is approved, Allan Gill would then be assigned to work on <br />the design with input from HFAB. One of the chief considerations for a new design is <br />that it must be ‘maintenance-friendly.’ In the event the project is not approved for <br />2014, HFAB will discuss a ‘temporary’ design to make low-cost improvements to the <br />garden until funds are available for extensive renovation. <br /> <br />X. Discussion items for next meeting on Thursday, September 5—1) OSAB <br />representative may attend meeting in order to solicit ideas for new trails (eg areas that <br />are underserved, or need better access or linkage to existing trails.) 2) Xeric <br />demonstration garden renovation plans. <br /> <br />XI. The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 pm. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
