• <br />• <br />• <br />Agenda Item 5C <br />Environmental Board Meeting Date: August 31, 2005 <br />Topic: Bettys Pies <br />Background: This is final plat information. Surface Water issues and general <br />landscape issues have previously been brought to the Board. <br />Analysis: Since the preliminary plan has been reviewed for Legacy of Woods <br />Edge, input is now confined to site specifics. The landscape and lighting plan are <br />submitted as review items. <br />Landscape <br />Plant Schedule: Deciduous Trees (Attachment 5) list has two species that <br />should be reconsidered for change. Crimson King maple is a Norway maple and <br />of borderline hardiness. Norway maples are also listed by the Minnesota <br />Department of Natural Resources as invasive to our native woodlands. I would <br />suggest changing this species to one of the following -- Northern Pin Oak, Red <br />Oak, Bur Oak, Autumn Blaze Maple, Hackberry, American Linden, Green Ash. <br />The Autumn Flame clump Maple is also a woodland invader and is getting <br />established in some of our native woodlands. Amelanchier or Service berry, <br />Ironwood, any of the disease resistant, fruit persistent flowering crabs, might be <br />substituted for this species. <br />Lighting Plan: See Attachment 4 <br />Erosion Control: The developer should submit an erosion control plan that <br />details NPDES requirements and is acceptable to the City. The plan and <br />inspections reports for this plan must be located on site with an indicated location <br />on the plan. <br />Options: <br />1. Recommend approval with Staff and Environmental Board <br />recommendations. <br />2. Other recommendations of the Environmental Board. <br />Recommendation: <br />Option 1 <br />
