• • • Main Street Village page 11 Park Plan and Park Dedication: The parks plan shows Natural Resource Protection Areas corresponding to the locations of wetlands as revealed by the wetland delineation. These are wetland areas that will be protected by existing wetland law. As noted above, the wetland mitigation plan is being reviewed by the Rice Creek Watershed District. The protected wetlands will be covered by a drainage and utility easement. The park plan shows a transportation trail along Otter Lake Road. We are looking into the possibility of having this constructed with the project. Park dedication will be cash in the amount of $2175 per acre of commercial development. Dedication cash typically is credited for the trail construction. ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD ACTION Stormwater management was the focus of the Environmental Board discussion on July 25. This included the importance of the design of the stormwater facilities, such as infiltration and filtration features. In addition, the AUAR requirement for volume control must be addressed in the project design. There also was consideration of revising the landscape plan to substitute some tree species and ensure plantings in infiltration areas are appropriate. RECOMMENDATION No formal action required for concept review. Staff and applicant are seeking comments to guide project/plan revisions. The following should be addressed with plan revisions: 1. Private roadways within the project shall have an improved surface of 26 feet unless safe access and circulation dictate otherwise. 2. Examine the option of combining the southern access with the water tower access to avoid creating an additional access onto Otter Lake Road. 3. Right of way dedication for Otter Lake Road must be shown on the plans on the southern part of the site. 4. A peak parking analysis must be submitted to demonstrate that the peak demand is less than the normally required number of parking stalls. This study must address possible restaurant/fast food uses in this building. 5. Lot size data must be resubmitted to reflect the Otter Lake Road right of way dedication.
