<br />72 <br />§ 1007.025 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW. <br /> <br />(1) When an environmental assessment worksheet (EAW), alternative urban areawide <br />review (AUAR), or environmental impact statement (EIS) is required or otherwise ordered or <br />submitted, the applicable review procedures shall be as set forth in the Minnesota Environmental <br />Quality Board regulations for the Environmental Review Program, as authorized by Minnesota <br />Statutes and specified in Minnesota Rules 4410. <br /> <br />(2) An EAW, AUAR, or EIS application, together with the completed data portions of <br />the environmental document, shall be accompanied by a fee and cash escrow as set forth in <br />ordinance. Costs of City time and materials expended in reviewing and processing the application <br />shall be charged against the cash escrow account and credited to the City. If, at any time, the <br />balance in the cash escrow account is depleted to less than 10 percent of the originally required <br />cash escrow amount, the project proposer shall deposit additional funds in the cash escrow account <br />as determined by the Zoning Administrator. Any balance remaining in the cash escrow account <br />upon completion of the process shall be returned to the project proposer after all claims and charges <br />thereto have been deducted. <br /> <br />(3) Upon completion of the environmental document for distribution and the start of the <br />comment period, the Zoning Administrator shall provide mailed notice of the availability of the <br />environmental document to all property owners within 600 feet of the boundaries of the property <br />that is the subject of the environmental document. Failure of a property owner to receive notice <br />shall not invalidate any such proceedings as set forth in this Chapter. <br /> <br />(4) Following the required comment period, the City shall prepare the final document <br />with a response to comments. The Environmental Board shall review the final document and <br />provide its recommendations to the City Council. The City Council shall act on the document as <br />required by Minnesota Rules 4410.
