These will be provided with final plans. <br />WSB (5/23/2025) To be completed with final plans <br /> <br /> <br />• Wetlands and Environment <br /> <br />The project proposes approximately 1.62 acres of wetland impact. A wetland replacement <br />plan will need to be submitted, reviewed, and approved through RCWD and the City. <br /> <br />A Wetland Replacement Plan application must include a statement from the MnDNR, or the <br />applicant’s licensed professional, based on MnDNR database review, as to the potential <br />presence of an endangered or threatened species or potential impact to a rare natural <br />community (Minn. Rules 8420.0330, subp. 3.A(5); 8420.0525). Applicants should initiate <br />this review early. <br /> <br />The current WCA NOD document states they are avoiding impacts to wetland 8 however, <br />wetland 8 will be impacted with the connection to Andall Street and should be included with <br />the impacts. <br /> <br />Review of the MnDNR’s Natural Heritage Information System database indicates the <br />potential presence of several protected species within and near the project area, including <br />protected plant species. The applicant should coordinate with the DNR on the need for <br />additional studies or surveys. <br /> <br />Wetland buffers meeting minimum and average requirements will be required around all <br />wetland areas following construction. Any disturbed buffer areas should be seeded with a <br />seed mix containing native, non-invasive, species. <br /> <br />• Landscaping <br />Page 116 of 168
