Council reviewed a workshop on wastewater treatment expansion phase 1 that will run a new line to a pond at Blackjack Number 6 Golf Course and remove several trees; council proposed a $5,000 mitigation fund to buy replacement trees, some to be donated to the country club and the remainder given to residents on Arbor Day.
At a workshop during the Oct. 2 meeting, Fair Oaks Ranch city staff described plans for Wastewater Treatment Expansion Phase 1 that include running a new line from the wastewater treatment plant to a pond at Blackjack Number 6 Golf Course. Staff said the construction will require removal of several trees.
Council discussed a mitigation plan that would use $5,000 to purchase replacement trees. Several replacement trees would be donated to the country club for replanting; the remaining trees would be distributed to residents via a giveaway on Arbor Day, staff said. Council will consider and is expected to approve the mitigation plan at a subsequent council meeting.
The meeting record treats this item as a workshop discussion and does not record a formal motion, vote tally, or implementation schedule beyond the statement that council will approve the plan at the next meeting.
