These trees should be removed <br />and mitigated for if TPZs cannot be maintained at the proper dimension of 1 foot <br />per inch Diameter at Breast Height (DBH). <br />2. Tree Protection Zones (TPZs) must be shown on the Grading Plan (Sheet C-201). <br />3.Applicant must complete a Natural Heritage Review through the Minnesota DNR. <br />This can be done through the Minnesota Conservation Explorer tool located here: <br />Natural Heritage Review | Minnesota Conservation Explorer (state.mn.us). <br />Applicant must provide the completed review to the City when complete. <br />4. Canopy cover requirements are not currently met. Replacing 5 conifers (3 on east <br />parking lot perimeter and 2 along proof of parking area) with 5 deciduous trees <br />will meet requirements. <br />5.Clarification is needed on access points for construction work. It appears that all <br />access is planned to be through a single center drive lane. If construction traffic <br />will access other drive lanes, they will also need construction exits. <br />6. A concrete washout location must be shown on the Site Plan (sheet C-101). <br />7. Redundant perimeter control needed between grading limits and wetland on west <br />perimeter. <br />Environmental Memo <br />Attachment 4: Environmental Coordinator Memo dated March 5, 2024
