• <br />• <br />• <br />Environmental Issues: Wetlands, Water Table <br />Wetlands exist in the area between Hodgson and Ware Roads, and the water table in the <br />overall study area is shallow. The shallow water table constrains some development <br />options that would require below -grade construction. Wetlands create some challenges <br />for routing roads and utilities. <br />However, the wetlands also can be viewed as the basis of an open space amenity area that <br />can be incorporated into site designs. Proper buffering of the wetlands can protect water <br />quality and enhance the quality of these open spaces. This perspective fits with the City's <br />conservation development philosophy, whereby new development would create <br />significant public values beyond those achievable under conventional development <br />.,T, <br />. ,t. of OF 111R " 1'5 6"N 1,1 <br />1. � �f >aern <br />'''' <br />�.. r ' sift !v'6 I sift <br />9'i '• 437,i".l iniu r <br />/111 111 VIIR Alt :1—%.
