• • Agenda Item 5B Environmental Board Meeting Date: January 29, 2003 Topic: Bruggeman Property /Rezone /Preliminary Plat/Site Plan Review /CUP /PUD Background: Bruggeman Property is located on Birch Street and County Road 49. The applicant is proposing to rezone this area to commercial. The use includes a gas service area and miscellaneous other buildings. The Eastern half of the site is guided for medium density residential. No proposal for this area has been submitted due to the existing moratorium. Included, as (Attachment 1) is the GIS base map with the MLCCS overlay. Surface water information has been submitted and is being reviewed by the City Engineer. There is no input from Rice Creek Watershed at this time. There is no information from the Department of Natural Resources at this time. Submitted information includes Parcel Survey, Outlot Map, Proposed Grading (and tree preservation), Proposed Utility, Retail Outlay, Landscape Plan and Lighting Plan. (Attachment 2) There are no unique remaining resources on this site. NWI shows a wetland on the SE corner, and the developer has had other site wetlands delineated. Mr. John Johnson is the Project Engineer for this project. I have asked him to attend the meeting. Analysis: Attachment 3 shows the Lake Protection areas, Zone 1 and 2 Protection Areas, surface water flow patterns, and High Priority Protection areas. This entire site is in a Lake Protection Zone. Existing agricultural drainage channels water for the most part to Baldwin Lake. A small area on the SE corner travels to Rice Lake. Surface water issues are the most important issues on this site. Water is ditched directly into Baldwin Lake. Surface water is proposed to be directed into a new NURP pond. Water from this NURP pond will be discharged to the existing ditch. Surface water information will have to be evaluated to determine impacts, if any, to Baldwin Lake. Given there is a gasoline service facility planned for the site, there should be • some structural plan for containment.
