Summary

Landscape architect submitted a tree-and-shrub list for Jensen Farms Park phase 2; the committee asked members to send consolidated comments so the design can proceed to bid.

Members reviewed a landscape-architect recommended plant list for Jensen Farms Park phase 2, which will run along the creek and include trees and shrubs selected for proximity to water features. The architect’s list included species such as western red birch, honeylocust and Rocky Mountain juniper; committee members noted suitability varies by exact placement and proximity to the creek and asked for time to send consolidated comments.

The committee asked Michelle (committee staff) to consolidate written comments and return them to the architect; several members said earlier phases showed the creek planting approach could both stabilize banks and improve recreation. Staff indicated a desire to move the bid forward soon and requested timely input so the design can be finalized.
