• <br />• <br />• <br />Environmental <br />Memo <br />To: Katie Larsen <br />From: Marty Asleson <br />Date: November 6, 2013 <br />Re: Environmental Board Recommendations for Saddle Club Property <br />The following recommendations were made by the Lino Lakes Environmental Board <br />on October 30, 2013 concerning the Preliminary Plat/PUD proposal for the Saddle <br />Club: <br />• All Outlots should be deeded to City of Lino Lakes <br />• Outlots should be adjusted so that they capture the unique environmental <br />features and storm water treatment train features of the site. Property lines <br />should be reduced to avoid these features. <br />• All top soils that are removed from the buffer areas shall be returned to the <br />same site as much as possible after grading is done. The probable seed <br />bank in these soils cannot be purchased in a store, and a very valuable <br />resource on this development property. <br />• In order to not create any more barriers to the Blandings turtle or any nesting <br />turtle species it is recommended to install a lower profile curb similar to <br />Foxborough in the Saddle Club development. <br />• Conservation Easements are required over environmentally sensitive areas. <br />Since it is critical that new home owners know what the Conservation <br />Easement means, and why it is important that Conservation Easement is <br />there, the developer should produce a handout that gives the homeowner <br />information at the time of purchasing the property. The brochure must be <br />approved by the City. <br />• Page 1 <br />
