Agenda Item 5A Environmental Board Meeting Date: October 30, 2002 Topic: EAW /Eagle Brook Church Background: A Citizen petition was submitted to the Environmental Quality Board to perform an Environmental Assessment Worksheet for the proposed construction of a church East of Peltier Lake. Once application is received by the Environmental Quality Board, the RGU or Regulating Government Unit, the project proposer becomes responsible for supplying all necessary data to the Responsible Government Unit. The Responsible Government Unit, or RGU, prepares the EAW by completing the standard form supplied by the Environmental Quality Board. The RGU in this case is the City of Lino Lakes. The Lead Person on this review for Eagle Brook Church is Jeff Smyser, City Planner. The EAW in your packet is a result of a determination made that all relevant information has been received. The EAW was approved for distribution by the City Council. Upon this approval, the EAW is sent to several review agencies, and City Boards for comment. This comment period is 30 calendar days. After the 30 -day comment period, the RGU responds to the comments received and makes a determination on the need for an EIS based on the EAW comments received and responses to the comments. The RGU and other units of government may require modifications to the project to mitigate environmental impacts as disclosed through the EAW process. The EAW is on the October 30, 2002 Agenda for your comments. I have included the EAW (attachment 1), and the EQB Item -By Item Guidelines for your reference (attachment 2). Analysis: Environmental Board analysis to be performed, and comments recorded at the Environmental Board meeting. Options: Submit comments to the RGU
