Commissioner Macht asked if fixing the map would be possible, and Mr. DeBlois <br />advised it could be done. <br />Vice Chairman Stanbridge reiterated her suggestion that the public be given more <br />information on the origination of the program and the desired result. <br />Commissioner Adams thought the information was very good; Vice Chairman <br />Stanbridge agreed it was very concise. <br />Bea Gardner, 986 25th Street. agreed that it is important to show the map of the <br />county as a whole. She credited Milt Thomas for his "words" ability. As an artist -type, she <br />demonstrated how the map could be extended in a certain way and the words wrapped <br />around the expanded map. This should allow for accommodation of the same amount of <br />words. She thought that would be a real asset and give everyone a very good view of the <br />entire county. She agreed with Vice Chairman Stanbridge that more information should be <br />included, but felt that anyone receiving this brochure could get a real good idea of what the <br />County has spent the taxpayers' money on. She commended Mr Coffey for his abilities as <br />chairman. <br />Vice Chairman Stanbridge reiterated her point of establishing a cost value so people <br />could know of the benefit other than it is pretty to look at. <br />Although she had no problem following the colors, Chairman Ginn thought it might <br />be less confusing if all of the properties the County has purchased were in green. <br />Commissioner Adams thought the color codes showed the different types of habitat, <br />but that is not explained. <br />Mr. Coffey commented on the color scheme and pointed out that colors of the <br />numbers are related to help people orientate themselves. He assured the Commissioners that <br />the issue was discussed many times as to how to quantify the cost benefits. He pointed out <br />that the loss of tax revenue was not included at all in the brochure. <br />March 20, 2001 <br />PG 6 5 6 <br />184 <br />
