30 May 1996 <br /> Page 11. <br /> SHERMAN: There's an existing lousy lawn, I think you'd admit, within the 50 feet. <br /> NASH: During the construction it was torn up but it would be replaced. Prior to the <br /> construction there was a lawn. (SHERMAN: There was a lawn?) Absolutely, it was like <br /> this; this was the lawn on my property. <br /> SHERMAN: I think we did hand out the first time Mr. Nash came to us, before we <br /> formally took this up, and I sent you in the mail a copy of the minutes from that first ....... <br /> (NASH: I am aware of it) and what I'm saying is some of these same issues are being <br /> addressed again. (NASH: At the last meeting.)Yes, but now we are doing it in the correct <br /> legal way, formally, where you get a chance to. So, in other words you are getting another <br /> swing at the ball. Last time we discussed those issues and we came to some sort of a <br /> conclusion that this was sort of apples and oranges and that the nitrogen load from the <br /> lawn Vs the wildlife habitat characteristics inherent to the 50 foot naturally vegetated buffer <br /> strip. However, I don't think there is any way we can proceed on this unless Mr. Nash <br /> wishes to bring in additional evidence or issues addressing the specific language of the <br /> bylaw. <br /> FITZSIlvIMONS: Does anyone else have anything to say on this? It seems to me this was <br /> denied once and there is no good reason why it should not be denied. <br /> ROSENBERG: My memory is that we had quite a bit of discussion about the extent to <br /> which we would allow the invasion of the 50 foot buffer zone and ...... <br /> NASH: I have some questions, my house is entirely inside the 100 feet. <br /> FITZSD.4MONS: I am very concerned about Mr. K who can come back and say the very <br /> same thing. <br /> ROSENBERG: Well, we've had,you should understand Mr. Nash, that we have normally <br /> at least one a meeting of somebody that did something after-the-fact.. <br /> NASH: In this case it's worse because we had a lot of discussion about it. <br /> ROSENBERG: You are the second or third tonight. <br /> NASH: No, I understand that and I apologize for that but I have to tell you it is beyond <br /> my control. That's why I came here. <br /> SHERMAN: At this point I think we have to say that we could close tonight if he wishes <br /> based on the information in hand but we have to afford him the opportunity if he wishes to <br /> present addition information. So it's your choice. Do you wish to close tonight based <br /> upon the information in front of us, or do you wish to bring in more expert testimony? <br />
