ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORKSESSION — MARCH 11, 2024 13 <br />Councilmember Holden proposed they have the homeowner take out every other tree and <br />maintain the distance between the trees. Someone has to be able to walk through them, and not <br />become a solid fence. <br />Councilmember Fabel suggested they could give him a certain amount of time to have them all <br />gone. <br />Mayor Grant said they could ask for half out now and half out in five years. <br />Councilmember Holden felt there would be no point in taking care of them for five years only to <br />cut them out. <br />Mayor Grant said they could tell him to move them to the property line. <br />Councilmember Fabel recommended removing 2 out of 3 now and in five years they're all gone. <br />Councilmember Holden was OK with that. <br />Mayor Grant agreed, or he could try to move them now if he wanted. <br />Councilmember Monson asked if that would be an encroachment agreement or just direction <br />that Council is giving to staff. <br />Community Development Jagoe felt the City Attorney would still want an agreement to <br />memorialize the terms. <br />Mayor Grant directed staff to work with the City Attorney on that agreement language. <br />Councilmember Holden felt there should be no encroachment on City property from this point <br />on. <br />Councilmember Rousseau wondered if a flower garden or wood duck house would be <br />considered encroachment. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said those things would have to be on <br />private property or become an amenity of the City, like Eagle Scout projects. <br />Councilmember Monson said if someone wanted to take out invasive species but put in native <br />flowers for an actual beautification, she would be open to that. The strip of the trail by her is <br />completely left wild and it's awful, she didn't think that was what they wanted to city to look like. <br />She'd like to have PTRC do work on what we would allow for beautification. <br />Councilmember Holden disagreed, there are a lot of trails that are very pristine but lots of people <br />like walking at Hazelnut because it gives them a sense of wildness. She wasn't saying to not do <br />something about the invasive species, but that some people like it more nature like. She thought <br />they should just say no encroaching. <br />Mayor Grant asked if what he was hearing was a zero -tolerance policy. <br />
