The committee recessed from 11:35 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
Discussion of 20% Slopes: Ty Dodge presented the Tom Belisle concept map for property in the Town
of Somerset. Discussion held on the disturbance of 20% slopes on this property. Motion by Zoerb,
seconded by Anderson and carried to not approve the concept plan for the preliminary plat for this
property because the disturbance of 20% slopes does not meet the policy requirements set by the
Committee. The developer is to look at other options to come up with a design that does not disturb 20%
slopes.
Wildwood Trail: Fisher went over the proposed plan for development of the Wamstad property
(formerly the Rodel property) that is located on both sides of the Wildwood Trail in the Town of Eau
Galle. Fisher explained that staff suggests that this plan be denied, as staff does not believe this plan
meets the policy that was put into place by this Committee regarding the crossing of the Wildwood Trail,
and that alternatives should be looked at. Bob Heise, Land and Water Conservation Department agreed
with Fisher, reiterating that this plan does not meet the Wildwood Trail policy for crossing the trail.
Terry and Tammy Wamstad, owners of the property, stated that without a crossing they have no access to
the back of their property. They want to use this land for homes for their children.
Pete Gartman, engineer with Cedar Corporation, is working on the project for the Wamstads. He stated
that the Town of Eau Galle has recommended approval of the plan. Gartman will work with the county
on coming up with a plan that will work for this property.
Motion by Zoerb, seconded by Anderson and carried not to approve the concept map of Shady Meadows
as it does not comply with the St. Croix County policy for the crossing of the County owned Wildwood
Trail. The committee suggested that the Wamstads consider a configuration with 2 lots on the far side of
the trail crossing.
The committee recessed from 12:30 p.m. to 1:40 p.m. for lunch.
Bills, Invoices and Revenue Report: Motion by Zoerb, seconded by Burri and carried to approve June

Association, as long as the Town signs the request form.
County Surveyor Update: Brian Halling presented the proposed duties and tasks of the County

Halling, and talked about the 9 -year plan for this. Halling stated that it would be impossible to complete
this in 9 years with the current staff, if the workload remains the same. This presentation will be given to
County Board, after review by the committee. Halling will try to have the presentation ready for the
committee by the August 13"' meeting.
