DeBI CP Chief, Environmental Planning DATE: April 4, 2001 SUBJECT: Frank Coffey Request that the Board Reconsider the Revised Map of the County Environmental Lands Program Informational Brochure It is requested that the information herein presented be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at its regular meeting of April 10. 2001. DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS On March 20, 2001. the Board of County Commissioners approved a draft informational brochure about the County Environmental Lands Program, with certain changes. One of the Board approved changes was a revision to the map of conservation sites to encompass the entire county, not just the eastern portion of the county. The map revision was also to include conservation lands in the county other than those purchased with bond funds. Staff has since revised the map along with minor text changes to the brochure. as directed by the Board. Attached is a copy of the revised brochure. Mr. Frank Coffey, who chaired the Informational Brochure Task Group. has seen the revised brochure and objects to the revised map. In a letter dated March 29. 2001, to the County Commission (see attached). Mr. Coffey expresses his concern that the revised map detracts from the Task Group's objective. which was to develop a brochure about the conservation lands acquired with bond funds (only). In his letter. Mr. Coffey urges the Board to revise the map to show only the lands purchased with bond funds, as recommended by the consensus of the Task Group. APRIL 10, 2001 -59-
