• • • Lino Lakes Environmental Memo To: Jeff Smyser From: Marty Asleson Date: 11/20/00 Re: McDonald's Site Plan /Building Permit Issuance Pete Klugal has asked me for a review of the McDonalds site plan before the issuance of a building permit. My comments are as follows: • The only reference to tree preservation plan that I see is item 8 in the planting notes section of MFRA corporate drawing no. 022 — 0342. We need to have the save trees and the removal trees from the tree inventory located on the site - grading plan. We need to have the tree protection fences located on this plan. We need to have all planned ground disturbances defined ( such as utility corridors) if they are in proximity to protection areas. We need to have indicated on the plan an established staging, and building - materials storage area(away from protection areas). We need to have an excavation and tree waste storage area located on the plan. We need the name of the project supervisor with a telephone number located on the tree preservation plan. We need to have a definition of how diseases such as oak wilt will be prevented on the site. We need to have a description of tree removal methods I.e. trees will be directionally felled away from save trees. • City approval for the Planned Development Overlay Landscape Design Standards included a one -for one tree replacement for phase I ( McDonald's and Outlots A and C ), and each of the 275 trees identified on the site(excluding Elm and Boxelder) removed be replaced. We would need a schedule for these replacement trees before removal. Replacement trees will consist of overstory trees with a minimum of 3 inches in diameter, or evergreen trees with a minimum height of 8 feet. • The Black Hills Spruce located on the SE comer will pose a visibility problem for traffic in the future. Replace these with red/white oaks. • Page 1
