Committee Discussion

Update from the District Engineer

District Engineer Stef Matthes provided a recap of the discussion from the previous committee meeting and presented a proposal of planting schemes and plant species to consider for the living shoreline. Committee Members asked about cost differences between the plant species. Mr. Matthes responded that there was no significant cost difference. Dr. Powers stated that she would like whatever scheme/species chosen to be durable and aesthetically pleasing. The committee requested Mr. Matthes schedule a tour, provide renderings and a presentation that could be posted on the website. There were questions regarding how the lake levels would be lowered during the dry season and warranties on the plants being used for the restoration. Mr. Matthes reminded the Committee that this was not a beautification project, but rather a maintenance project. He also stated that the big lake would be used as an example of all possible elements of the lake bank’s restoration and bidding would begin at the end of October. Dr. Powers asked for information to be disseminated to all the communities regarding the lake bank’s restoration project details and costs.
