land uses, wetland replacement obligations, and resulting excessive cost and assessments to <br />benefitted landowners compared to the benefits. <br />RCWD Policy: Drainage system maintenance and wetland replacement activities can have both <br />public and private benefits. Therefore the District will develop a funding system that considers <br />both: 1) localized charges on lands contributing to the drainage system management costs or <br />benefitting from the system; and 2) ad valorem levies on lands and taxpayers benefited at large <br />by the District's management program. <br />RCWD Policy: The district will identify the level of drainage system maintenance on which <br />landowners can depend, which in some instances could be less than the as- constructed and <br />subsequently improved condition. <br />RCWD Policy: Manage public drainage systems in a manner that recognizes the need to provide <br />a functional level of service to benefitted lands, within the context of local, state and federal <br />laws and programs. <br />RCWD Policy: Develop a hybrid legal framework that includes Minnesota Statutes103E, 103D, <br />and 103B that balances the legal interests of the Wetland Conservation Act and the Public <br />Waters law, along with other laws that have placed boundaries on drainage rights. <br />RCWD Policy: The management of drainage systems and conservation programs within the legal <br />authority of the District may involve impacts to landowners rights. In such cases it may be <br />appropriate to explore the conservation benefits of drainage related activities and consider a <br />system of reasonable and fair compensation for the drainage rights and other voluntary or <br />incentive approaches. <br />RCWD Policy: Recognize the landowner as the primary entity responsible for maintaining, <br />managing, and operating private drainage systems and mitigating wetland impacts associated <br />with private drainage. <br />RCWD Policy: Minimize and address channel instability as a result of additional runoff due to <br />land use changes, and promote ecological value as appropriate for the type of open channel. <br />RCWD Policy: Maintain legal right of entry and access along pubic drainage systems and formally <br />document easements along public drainage systems as part of drainage system legal <br />proceedings and the permit review process. <br />RCWD Policy: Inventory, manage, and provide access to public drainage system records to <br />improve operational efficiency, make accessible common information to constituents and <br />improve the basic understanding of public drainage systems. <br />RCWD Policy: Use consistent terms and definitions when describing the maintenance, repair, <br />improvement and general management of public and private drainage systems. In support of <br />the orderly and consistent management of public drainage systems in the District, it is the policy <br />of the District to utilize the following definitions, to facilitate understanding and describe the <br />work to be completed within repair reports and the need for maintenance activities, various <br />public drainage system proceedings, and routine operation and maintenance. <br />City of Lino Lakes SWMP I October 2011 3 <br />
