28 <br /> DRAFT <br /> 1149 <br /> 1150 Perdita Holtz: It has nothing to do with non-residential. It's everything in this section. So, to be clear,we're <br /> 1151 looking at Page 34 of the agenda packet. Near the top, that would stay 1 foot, and then you're <br /> 1152 also looking at Page 35, No. 8 to change that 24 inches to 12 inches. <br /> 1153 <br /> 1154 Lamar Proctor: Correct. I think those are the only two areas where tree width is mentioned. <br /> 1155 <br /> 1156 Adam Beeman: So, everybody's on board with 1 foot? <br /> 1157 <br /> 1158 Charity Kirk: I vote yes. <br /> 1159 <br /> 1160 Lamar Proctor: And, obviously,this still goes to the county commissioners,where they'll discuss it and you'll <br /> 1161 highlight the changes that we recommended versus what staff initiated. <br /> 1162 <br /> 1163 Perdita Holtz: And we,from what Cy said, it seems like we're just going to go with what the planning board is <br /> 1164 recommending on this. We're not necessarily going to highlight what we presented and what you <br /> 1165 all changed if we agree with it. That's not what the county commissioners want to hear at their <br /> 1166 meetings. We're just going to say this is the amendment packet. The planning board has <br /> 1167 recommended whatever you've recommended. <br /> 1168 <br /> 1169 Lamar Proctor: And to be honest with you,when I read through it, that was the only thing that stuck out to me that <br /> 1170 I felt like I needed to comment on and do further research on. <br /> 1171 <br /> 1172 Perdita Holtz: Yeah. I'm not going to point out that the table was mislabeled in the planning board packet. You <br /> 1173 know what I mean? <br /> 1174 <br /> 1175 Lamar Proctor: Right. I understand. <br /> 1176 <br /> 1177 Statler Gilfillen: I hope you can laugh at this next question, but the diameter at breast height, is that based on the <br /> 1178 human breast height from the ground? <br /> 1179 <br /> 1180 Perdita Holtz: So that is actually defined in the definitions,which I do not have in front of me, but as I recall, it <br /> 1181 might be 5 feet from the ground level. <br /> 1182 <br /> 1183 Statler Gilfillen: Okay,there is a definition of what that height is then. <br /> 1184 <br /> 1185 Perdita Holtz: There is,yes. <br /> 1186 <br /> 1187 Adam Beeman: So,we're just going to go to a little side vote. Charity had a motion to approve Lamar's 1 foot. Do <br /> 1188 1 have a second for that? I just want to get everybody's opinion. <br /> 1189 <br /> 1190 Beth Bronson: There's a consensus. <br /> 1191 <br /> 1192 Adam Beeman: Yeah, I just want to get everybody on board saying that we're all agreeing on that 1 foot, so we'll <br /> 1193 make that change;we're all in agreement. <br /> 1194 <br /> 1195 Statler Gilfillen: I'll second it. <br /> 1196 <br /> 1197 Adam Beeman: Okay. All in favor of it? Okay. <br /> 1198 <br /> 1199 Beth Bronson: Yes. <br /> 1200 <br /> 1201 Adam Beeman: Okay. We're all in favor. Great. <br /> 1202 <br />
