• Wetland Fill and Mitigation The applicant is proposing to fill 394 square feet of a wetland on proposed Lot 2. The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) will need to make a determination if this is a de minimus action, in which case the filling could proceed without any mitigation. Approval of this preliminary plat should be conditional upon RCWD approval of the de minimus action. Parkland or Payment in Lieu Since this parcel is too small for any kind of park land dedication, payment in lieu consistent with the City's requirements should be used.
