6.Low maintenance turf should be evaluated throughout the development. Ground covers should be drought resistant to reduce the need for irrigation use. 7. Plans show 10’ turf maintenance area. 10’ is not a large enough access area to provide future maintenance and trucking. Lot 25 block one should show maintenance access extending into the drainage and utility easement. a.Turf is acceptable through the yards, but should be native ground cover along the basin and through outlot A. b.Lot 38 of the town homes appears to have turf going into the buffer area along the drainage swale. Additional buffer should be provided where possible to enhance sediment and pollutant removal. 8.Provide maintenance access to manhole between lots 37 and 38. Between the retaining wall and drainage swale access for future maintenance looks difficult. 9. EOF’s between the stormwater basins and drainage swale should be stabilized to prevent future maintenance and erosion concerns. 10.Confirm ownership and maintenance for the drainage swale, understanding is that the city would maintain pipe crossings conveying public drainage. The rest of the system would be privately owned. 11.Provide final calculations and plans for the water re-use irrigation system. a.Include maps of green space to be irrigated. b.Maintenance and Use agreements will need to be completed for water re-use. 12.The project will disturb more than an acre of soil and will be required to obtain an NPDES permit. Proof of permit shall be required before construction. a.A SWPPP shall be required in additional submittals as required by the MPCA meeting sections 5.2-5.26 b.Final erosion and sediment control will be reviewed with future submittals 13.Tree removal should be completed in the fall or winter to minimize impacts to migrating or nesting bat populations Page 2
