The project site was identified to have buried <br />debris possibly containing the hazardous materials asbestos and PCB. As a result, the site has <br />been improved under the regulations of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). A <br />MPCA approved Response Action has been prepared for the site. In addition, the MPCA <br />requires the owner to enter into an Environmental Covenant and Easement Agreement with <br />their agency to maintain environmental restrictions. Restrictions include the land use and a <br />mediation plan if hazardous material is uncovered during construction. <br /> <br />The City of Lino Lakes holds a Drainage and Utility easement over the westerly portion of this <br />site. The restricted area overlaps the City’s easement area and the City is asked to consent to <br />Environment Covenant restriction in the overlapping area. Staff has reviewed the request and <br />supports the Environmental Covenant as it restricts alterations that could lead to contamination <br />and provides a means to address future development of this site. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 21-30 Approving Consent to Environmental <br />Covenant and Easement document for the Lino Lakes Mini Storage project. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />1. Resolution 21-30 <br />2. Consent to Environmental Covenant and Easement <br />3. Drainage and Utility Easement Exhibit <br />4. Environmental Covenant Area Exhibit
