“Mature landscaping, I think, was the term that was used by the gentleman earlier. I understand that they've got a requirement to put in a buffer, but I don't think it calls out anything specific to mature.”

“Or they have to take out some natural buffers, and there are going to be some areas they're probably going to have to. I just don't want to see them planting saplings, which are going to take 10 years to mature.”

“I mean, we can add the language of mature buffer where you're having to take out a natural buffer.”
Board of Commissioners · Sep 14, 2026
“The dilemma you see where there's going to be some natural buffer you're going to have to take out, and where you're taking that natural buffer out, which has been growing for probably some trees that have been there 30, 40 years.”
Board of Commissioners · Sep 14, 2026
“To me, I think you've got the best of both worlds. Keep your cul-de-sac, mini cul-de-sac, and then you have for emergency service access only.”
