Workshop Session G Concluding General Session (Benton Auditorium) Don't Be That Guy/Gal! Gary Johnson, Department of Forest Resources, University of Minnesota Jeff Iles, Department of Horticulture, Iowa State University Evaluation Adjourn Wednesday, February 24, 2016 - 9:30 a.m. The CODIT Principle Picking up where Alex Shigo left off, Dr. Dirk Dujesielken is with us this year to talk about the many complex changes that occur in trees after wounding. Many of you are familiar with the CODIT (Compartmentalization of Decay in Trees) Principle, but in this presentation you will be introduced to encapsulation. As callus, and later woundwood closes over (encapsulates) a wound, oxygen is no longer available to decay -causing organisms. Ultimately, encapsulation of wood infected by fungi is the survival principle for trees. In his presentation, Dr. Dujesiefken will show how different tree species respond to various types of wounds. Ways to preserve tree health after wounding will be discussed. Bees, Politics, and Pesticides — Challenges and Opportunities for the Green Industry You all know how important bees are and how they are threatened by a variety of factors including pesticide use. But are you aware of the opportunities for proactive companies to embrace bee -friendly practices in marketing services df sale of plant materials? In this engaging and illustrated general session presentation, Dr. Dan Potter will cover best management practices for safeguarding bees when treating lawns or landscapes for pests, and highlight recent work documenting which native and non-native woody ornamentals are the "best" for promoting pollinators in urban landscapes. l Thursday, February 25, 2016 - 2:30 p.m. Don't Be That Guy/Gal! After two days of intense and stimulating learning and networking, you might be tempted to just jump in the car and skip the closing general session. But trust me on this one... DON'T DO IT! Coming all the way down from St. Paul, Minnesota is our old friend Dr. Gary Johnson, and he has graciously agreed to team up with local "talent" Dr. Jeff Iles in what will be a rollicking, entertaining, and educational GENERAL SESSIONS and WORKSHOPS wrap-up session. Gary and Jeff will help you avoid the dreaded "that guy/gal" designation. And you all know who we are talking about, right? The "professional" who thinks "good enough" is actually good enough. The landscape designer who holds tenaciously to the same plant palette they used back in the 1970's! Or the arborist who uses terms like "heal" to describe the way a tree responds to pruning/wounding! Oh, and I almost forgot, "that guy/gal" who wears black socks and sandals! ! ! Wait, that is completely appropriate and acceptable in Minnesota! This should be fun, so hang around and join in on the discussion. A-1. Top 10 Nasty Insect Pests of Trees and Shrubs and How to Deal With Them* Dan Potter, University of Kentucky Lexington, KY Diagnosis and control strategies for destructive insect pests of woody landscape plants including emerald ash borer and other borers, Japanese beetles, scale insects, caterpillars, mites, sawflies, leaf miners, and other pests will be discussed.

(D-8 Repeat) Oklahoma City's Survivor Tree Mark Bays, Oklahoma Forestry Services Oklahoma City, OK At the highest point on the grounds of the Oklahoma City National Memorial stands a very special tree. Special because it resides in the hearts of everyone impacted by a senseless act of violence that struck the Alfred P. Murrah Building and the heart of Oklahoma City 21 years ago. This American elm has come to represent hope and healing and stands as a strong symbol, commemorating those who lost their life on that tragic day in April, 1995. This workshop will showcase the ongoing restoration and care of this tree that began in 1996. p -i. Guidelines for Proper Pruning Dirk Dujesiefken, Institute of Arboriculture Hamburg, Germany Using the Hamburg Tree Pruning System as a guide, Dirk will provide information and insight about the proper pruning of older trees in parks and along the roadside. C-2. Cultivating Great Employees Through Successful Training Programs (See description A-2) C-3. (F-3 Repeat) Abiotic Disorders Influence Tree Selection in the Great Plains* Jason Griffin, Kansas State University Haysville, KS Abiotic disorders often send trees into a state of decline from which there is no recovery. This one way road to the compost heap is often referred to as the death spiral. As green industry professionals, you are routinely called upon to diagnose and cure tree problems that got their start as humble abiotic stressors such as drought, heat, cold, and poor soils. In this presentation, Jason will look at some of the more important abiotic disorders influencing plant health in our managed landscapes. WORKSHOPS C-4. Swiss Army Landscaping — Multi -use Plants to Connect People with Outdoor Spaces (See description A-4) C-5.

I personally shopped there and I recall when the city paid the rent (with our tax dollars) for the empty Hv-Vee store for many months (possibly a year or more) to allow the new Hy -Vee store to be built. How can the city give 8 million to a developer with little or no return? I doubt that any of the people in the Logan Plaza area want another convenience store selling liquor or more medical offices. As stated in previous city council meetings, they want more shopping choices and they want a hardware store or building supply business, etc... I imagine several local residents (and the Back Row Boys) will want to speak at the council meeting in opposition. Why would this area need a convenience store with 1. a drugstore to the South selling mostly the same things, 2. a large Hy -Vee grocery with a gas and convenience store selling everything to the West and 3. another gas and convenience store selling the same things to the North at US63 & Airline Highway? Why would the area residents want another store selling liquor with their ongoing opposition to the issuance of any new liquor license? Why would the area residents want more medical offices at this location? Assuming that there are 50 new doctors coming to town it might be a good idea, but typically the proposed new offices will only take away from existing doctor offices from other areas. The West 4th street area used to have many doctor offices and now most of those buildings are vacant. 1 The Logan Plaza area had a small strip mall / storefronts built near the street years ago and those buildings were empty for years & years. Yes, the proposed developer of Logan Plaza will likely do a good job, but why should the city bankroll them and all their other projects. The re -development of the K -mart site at Crossroads (by what appears to be same developer) looks nice, but 50 to 60% of the storefronts are currently empty. Many other buildings and storefronts remain empty in the Crossroads area. A quick view of the downtown area also reveals many empty buildings and storefronts and yet the city continues to encourage development away from the downtown. Did the city ever recover the money (our money) that they put into the antique business via loans and other incentives at 200-212 SYCAMORE ST? How much money was lost? How did the proposed Logan Plaza developer gain title to this building? TIF funds should be used for infrastructure improvement that benefit the people of the city and not just a developer or two. These tax dollars (including TIF dollars) belong to the people of Waterloo and should be used wisely — this project seems to be another monumental waste (again). TIF funds should be released to the General Fund and our taxes and fees can then be reduced with the current budget activity making Waterloo again attractive to new residents and businesses. Faced with a shortfall of revenue, will you the council members again threaten to cut 6 police and 6 fire fighters (as has been the practice each and every budget activity)? Or will you allow the use of cash reserves or allow access TIF funds for help with the budget? Yes, you can again say that you have held the line and kept the levy rate the same, but when the property valuations go up 3% and you add fees and add other charges to cover increased spending, the test is whether more money comes out of our pockets, if it does, then you have raised our taxes and/or fees and all the costs of all the basic services.
