Enivonmental Board Minutes April 29, 2020 Page 3 APPROVED MINUTES Ms. Moffat replied that in the area of wastewater section we will be using less because the actual data is calculated to more realistic predication instead of general guidance from Met Council. Mr. Flower mentioned that looking at this report in the air section there is some reference to vehicle emissions and mentions updated traffic study. Why isn’t stationary source and vehicle emissions stated as not applicable to an AUAR. Ms. Moffat replied that guidance from the state an AUAR cannot be use if you have heavy industrial use area. This is not heavy industrial so there were certain studies that were not needed to be done. The headings that are in this report come right from the form that the state provides to the city. Mr. Sullivan is impressed by the document and the 70% reduction is run off with the improvements in the area. Ms. Andrzejewski made a MOTION to recommend the approval of the 2020 AUAR update – Motion was seconded by Mr. Sullivan. Motion carried 4-0. This approved report will go before City Council and act on it and then submitted back to the agencies to let them know that it has been adopted. VII. DISCUSSION ITEMS A.
