December 2005
Minutes
Present: Dave Saddoris and Sarah Linnes-Robinson, KFNA Staff
Â
Dave and Sarah went through the C&E Matrix and assigned dollar amounts to individual projects, which had been previously lumped into strategy areas. This information was shared via e-mail with the rest of Green Folks for comments before being distributed to NRP Steering Committee. The dollar amounts will be the request for funding in the Phase II NRP.
Â
Dave and Sarah also discussed the following:
Timeline for Stormwater Project (Dave will draft a more accurate timeline)
Specific duties on the project (Sarah will begin talking with experts to figure out exactly what we need to know.)
A list of possible experts to talk to concerning stormwater.
The idea of soliciting outside help from the U of M students on the project (Dave is looking into this via Humphrey Institute)
Â
This is topic number one at the January meeting, which was moved to Thursday January 5 due to New Year’s.Â
Â
Dave and Sarah also briefly discussed the boulevard tree-planting grant. Dave felt that KFNA should not partner the funds into the project needed to plant the whole neighborhood (approximately $11,000) at this time, but rather we should target blocks that expressed interest and then plant every other tree. Sarah will take this recommendation to the Steering Committee.
Â
Saddoris concurred that the committee should work on this year’s Hazardous Waste Day as a project. The committee will later brainstorm additional activities to occur on that day and on methods to bringing in additional volunteers.
