These zones must be shown on the Tree Preservation Plan and Grading Plans submitted at the Preliminary Plat phase. 10.Tree removal should be completed outside of the growing season. This will limit impacts to nesting species and prevent the spread of oak wilt. a.Dormant trimming and removal of oaks is highly recommended in this area, not only to mitigate for potential spread of the fungus Bretziella fagacearum. Also to reduce impacts on cavity nesting species which are extremely common in this area. 11.Consider extension of trails into the upland areas. 12.Consider incorporation of a stormwater reuse system for lawn irrigation. 13.Site is located within the Rice Creek Watershed District Wetland Management Corridor, wetlands and buffers will be required to meet the requirements for the WMC. 14.MNR to provide a management plan for the protected open space.

Creating additional impacts in one area is preferred to creating impacts in multiple locations, specifically in the upland between lots 67-70. If this area can be decreased by moving it adjacent to the wetland to preserve trees or combine it with proposed impacts to the large basin to the west. Page 2
