In attendance: Joan Witiak, Daniel Roman, Susan Scholl, Linda Taylor, and Frank Colon.
1. Approval of minutes of September 7, 2005 meeting: Motion by Dan Roman, with Linda Taylor as second. Approved unanimously.
2. Review Permits: Discussion of permits and expiration dates for residents. STAC
reiterates the policy of allowing 1year for residents to replace trees before any recourse by the Township. Frank stated trees MUST be replaced in a timely manner by residents. STAC discussed street trees which are planted directly on property lines. Will request developers take care not to place trees on property lines.
3. Park Tree Planting: As of Friday, September 23, no bids had been received, but they should be coming in this week. Frank commented about the Lion's Club planting of 2 commemorative trees by their pavilion, along with a complimentary letter to the township.
4. Review Jaindl Land Co., Hanover Corp. Center 2: The revised plan has a larger variety of trees, but needs genus and species listed on plan. Plan showed some replacement trees 15 ft. apart on a 4 ft. berm. STAC agreed this planting is too close for future mature trees. In addition, the plan shows trees too close to planned underground utilities and possibly too close to the curb. Issue to be addressed.

Business: Frank suggested planting
trees for residents affected by township "improvements".
