ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETINGJANUARY 29, 2003 <br />4APPROVED MINUTES <br />Asleson stated that the ponding would accommodate the future ponding as well. <br />Grundhofer noted that there was no additional parking proposed at the present <br />time, and inquired of staff if it would be enough. Asleson answered that the <br />engineers were reviewing the needs, and the analysis would be more <br />comprehensive in the next phase. <br />Donlin expressed concern that the site was a high priority protection area. <br />Asleson responded that the wetlands and lake had two kinds of soils and <br />classifications, and the plan honored those zones. <br />Donlin stated that at times the treatment train focus undermined the other goal <br />that water should not move off the site. Asleson assured the Board that the plan <br />would manage the surface water. <br />Donlin indicated that she would like to see some language in terms of parking to <br />guide the next phase when the church began to grow. <br />Dan Ernabreck from the church Building Committee introduced himself and <br />stated the Church planned to remain a community church at about 500 people. <br />The proposed ponding would be utilized if growth occurred and native plants <br />would be on the other side of the path. <br />Chair Kukonen inquired if there would be any additional parking. Mr. Ernabreck <br />indicated that there would be none. <br />Chair Kukonen inquired about the lighting proposal. Mr. Ernabreck answered <br />that there would be lighting only at the exits. <br />Grundhofer mentioned that in the future, the Board would like more parking as <br />green space, in order to reduce the amount of impervious. Donlin added that <br />developers in the area were experimenting with various pervious parking options. <br />Asleson explained the most promising pervious parking option available was <br />Netlawn. <br />Donlin made a motion to approve with the suggested environmental <br />recommendations made by staff in addition to the recommendations made by the <br />Board including: <br />• Ensure that the area northwest of the path remain undisturbed due to its <br />classification as a high priority protection area. <br />• Recommend that the Landscape Committee get information from staff on <br />plant species and other landscape best practices.
