Mayor Carter requested permission to allow the guests from
the Corps of Engineers to give their presentation first. It
regarded information on the wetlands area which Trophy Club
citizens have voiced concerns about future maintenance and
child safety.
Stan Walker confirmed that the Clean Water Act declares the
ten acres in Village West a wetlands under the-'uriadiction
of the Corps of Engineers for the purpose of water quality
and wildlife habitat control. Because the Corps prefers the
wetlands be loft as naturally as possible, little to no
maintenance is required. If that or safety issues ariae, he
recommended obtaining grants and detailed information from
the Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife.
Co -Chairman Vance Booker of the Planning and Zoning
Commission asked if it could be filled in or stocked with
fish.

weed control and an assessment of all Trophy Club for other
wetland areas.

recreational use such as boating.
