Blocks and Lots <br />The plan shows 1 lot and 2 outlots. Lot 1 is the 27.85 acres located south of JD 3 and is planned <br />as a 402,552 distribution center. Outlot A is 15.66 acres and is located north of JD 3. Outlot B is <br />9.82 acres and is directly north of Cedar Street. <br />Easements <br />Standard drainage and utility easements at least 10 feet wide are provided along all lot lines. <br />Drainage and utility easements shall also be dedicated for wetlands and 10 feet above the high <br />water level over stormwater drainage ponds. Drainage and utility easements are also shown as <br />being dedicated over JD 3. <br />As part of the AUAR, a greenway corridor is planned through this property. A 50-foot <br />conservation easement is shown on Outlot A measured from the centerline of the ditch. In order <br />to comply with the intent of the AUAR, the easement shall be measured from the top of the bank. <br />The plans shall be revised accordingly. <br />The buffer along the creek shown on Lot 1 ranges from 20 feet to 150 feet in width and should <br />be a conservation easement. The buffer should be modified to include all of the area between the <br />creek, ponds and parking area. The future access road and parking area in the northeast corner of <br />the site will need to be modified to comply with these buffer requirements. Mitigation will be <br />allowed in this conservation easement area. <br />A future trail is shown within the 21s' Avenue right-of-way and will be constructed at a later <br />date. <br />An Xcel easement extends across the southern portion of Outlot B. <br />Storm Water Management and Erosion and Sediment Control <br />The plans show a new stormwater pond in the northwest corner site draining into JD 3. The City <br />Engineer's memo has several comments regarding this plan that must be addressed. <br />Utilities <br />Public water, sanitary and storm sewer utilities will be installed within the development. The <br />City Engineers memo has several comments that must be addressed. <br />Tree Preservation <br />The goal of tree preservation is to minimize unnecessary loss of habitat, biodiversity and forest <br />resource and to replace removed trees in areas where tree cover is most critical. There limited <br />trees on site, and it appears that many of those could be preserved. The applicant should provide <br />a detailed tree preservation plan to ensure compliance with the ordinance. <br />10 <br />
