vaeate-the easemen Great River Energy/UPA has provided a Partial Release of Easement. This document shall be recorded. Wetlands A Wetland Delineation Report was completed by Midwest Natural Resources, Inc. on October 12, 2016. A WCA Notice of Decision (NOD) approving the wetland delineation was issued by VLAWMO on November 14, 2016. Although the NOD states the delineation is good for 3 years, staff received confirmation from VLAWMO that the NOD is actually good for 5 years. Five (5) wetlands were delineated on site.

The City will require a 75ft wide wetland buffer equivalent to the shore impact zone as a stormwater BMP. Wetland buffer widths in accordance with VLAWO's Buffer Management Class are provided on the preliminary plat and have been approved by VLAWMO. A 75 foot wide vegetated wetland buffer equivalent to the shore impact zone area is provided along Wetland A (lake) as a stormwater management best management practice (BMP) to minimize runoff pollutants from entering the lake. The buffer extends 75 ft from the delineated wetland boundary. A wetland buffer declaration shall be recorded. The wetland buffer shall be indicated by permanent, free-standing markers. The wetland buffer widths have been adjusted according to VLAWMO policy. The driveway on Lot 2 no longer impacts the wetland buffers; therefore, a variance is not needed. A drainage and utility easement 10 feet above the delineated wetland is provided. All plan sheets have been revised to show the correct wetland buffer and drainage & utility easements.
