• • inspection reports for weekly, and post rainfall events. Location of this plan and the inspection reports must be indicated on the plan. There is no discussion of storm sewer protection in the plan. The developer must provide a detail on storm sewer inlet protection. Floc socks or other protection devices must be indicated and utilized. In addition, as part of the SWPPP, language should include maintenance of Silt fences when silt fences are 1/3 full. In addition, a clean -out area for cement trucks should be shown on the plan. Permanent erosion control should include the City native seed mix in buffer, pond and areas outside the retaining wall. Entrance points to the project should be designated and 50 Foot rock entrances installed. Site Vegetation The property was rough graded when Target and Kohl's came in. The site has been struggling with vegetation establishment for erosion control since the original grade was established. Landscape Plan The landscape Plan is included as attachment 8. Landscaping should conform to the original intent of Market Place. Proposed landscaping shows a gap on the west side of the 14K sq Ft building. The old plan however, showed 80 trees in the landscape and the new plan shows 97. Species are appropriate for the site. All proposed sodded areas must be irrigated. All planting beds for shrubs should be mulched with organic, earth -toned products consistent with other Market Place Areas. The Landscape Plan discusses sodded transition areas to natural areas. The only areas that this could be referring to are the pond areas. Native, i.e. natural areas would be difficult to maintain as a native seed area with the number of trees proposed for the site. A more formal native plant/shrub "rain garden" may be a better approach. With that a written and signed agreement must be given to manage and maintain this or any types of landscape on the site. Perhaps this could be part of the Target/Kohl's contract. As with the target/Kohl's site, a written statement of BMP's and a plan for action approved by the City should be supplied. Periodic impervious sweeping, trash and litter pick -up, replacement of dead or dying landscape materials, deicing salt storage on site, are important issues that should be tied down before agreement to develop is enacted. Tree Protection There are no trees on the site.
