• • • Wetland mitigation needed • Infiltration basins indicated • Implied Trail through a proposed greenway area(1992- 2001) STAFF COMMENTS/ISSUES FOR CONSIDERATION: • Good idea to ask for a conservation easement with signage in the area directly east and west of the lake. Signage should be posted along edge reminding "no mow /disturb" For this to work, there needs to be covenants restricting use and providing for a management agency. A minimum association fee should be set aside for management of this area. A management plan should be developed. The management agency should be the local environmental review board. A Tree preservation plan has been submitted. A site visit and a bit more detail may be needed. • ..Shoreland Overlay district means that on a sewered lot, building setback must be 150 feet from the ordinary high water level. This needs to be verified. • City Engineering has shown concern for the house pad elevations. Soil may need to be imported to raise the pad elevations. Mr. Goerts has indicated to me that they will need to fill only on two lots if a lift pump can be installed near NE cul de sac • .... The trail proposal through the planned greenway area (conservation easement area) may have physical barriers at the area circled in red on the enclosed GIS map. The county has indicated that they have abandoned this idea. • ...Infiltration areas are indicated on the North end, and a "Treed" swale overflow on the south central side will be preserved. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REFERENCES: ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD COMMENTS: The following is a summary of the comments made by the March 28, 2001 Environmental Board: Recommendations include all of the staff recommendations listed above in project trac report to The Environmental Board on March 28th, and in addition the Environmental Board made the following recommendations: • Those cul de sacs proposed by the developer to be devoid of curbing are allowed with surface water trained into retention swails along side of the road. • That the angle of the townhomes as positioned on the plan be opened up if possible in the area between the water /tree swaile area on the south side of the townhome area. • That the Environmental Board advises that this is a High Ecological Value Zone based on the City Environmental Inventory, and that wetland should be buffered as much as possible.
