ITEM 11. FISH, WILDLIFE, ECOLOGICALLY SENSITIVE RESOURCES <br />AUAR MITIGATION PLAN SUMMARY <br />The following list is intended to summarize, in the form of a list, the mitigation strategies <br />required or recommended by the AUAR. This summary may seem lengthy at 11 pages. <br />However, the complete mitigation plan is 29 pages long. This summary list is intended as <br />an aide, a shortcut, and is not to be considered the complete list of requirements for <br />development in the 4660 -acre AUAR area. In order to understand the mitigation <br />strategies, potential developers should spend time reading the AUAR, especially the <br />mitigation plan. In addition, all applicable zoning, subdivision, and other requirements <br />apply. <br />Mitigation Strategies <br />The City will: <br />Implement the Conservation Design Framework (CDF, see Figure 10 -3), which <br />includes conservation of "Core" and "Outlier" habitat areas, buffering these <br />natural resources, and establishing greenway corridors throughout the AUAR area <br />to provide connectivity for ecological and wildlife corridors, regional stormwater <br />collection and conveyance, and passive recreational opportunities. <br />Implementing the CDF within a Proposed Development Project Site <br />To achieve the objectives outlined in the CDF, the City will require future <br />project proposers to do two things simultaneously: <br />1) plan for ecological stormwater management and natural resource <br />conservation within the development project site, and <br />2) provide land, finances, and/or construction activities to implement <br />components of the CDF. <br />Conservation development design and/or low impact development design <br />principles will be required of new developments with an emphasis on <br />ecological stormwater management and natural resource conservation. The <br />stormwater and conservation components of individual developments must <br />integrate with the CDF. <br />A management plan and stewardship fund will be required to ensure long- <br />term perpetuation of the public values conserved or restored in the natural <br />open space and in the ecological stormwater management system of the CDF. <br />Ecological education, provided by the developer, may be required for a <br />specific development project (e.g., educational pamphlets, signage, Home <br />Owner Association workshops, etc.). <br />• <br />
