Agenda Item 5E <br />Environmental Board Meeting Date: August 31, 2005 <br />Topic: Legacy Hotel Project <br />Background: . This is final plat information. Surface Water issues and general <br />landscape issues have previously been brought to the Board. <br />Analysis: <br />Landscape (Attachment 2) <br />Plant Schedule: Recommend the following changes based on the Plant <br />Schedule - -- Crimson King maple is a Norway maple and of borderline hardiness. <br />Norway maples are also listed by the Minnesota Department of Natural <br />Resources as invasive to our native woodlands. I would suggest changing this <br />species to one of the following -- Northern Pin Oak, Red Oak, Bur Oak, Autumn <br />Blaze Maple, Hackberry, American Linden, Green Ash. Change Greenspire <br />Linden to Redmond Linden (a cultivar of the American Linden). Change <br />Colorado Blue Spruce to White or Norway Spruce. <br />If salt spray is a concern along the freeway (usually within 60 feet), Black Hills <br />Spruce and Ginkgo may be more tolerant, than eastern Red Cedar and Linden. <br />Sod areas must be shown as irrigated. All top soils should be described as <br />incorporated into the sub soil for several inches. <br />Lighting Plan (Attachment 3) <br />The Lighting and Photometric plan is included as Attachment 3 for your review. <br />Erosion Control <br />The developer should submit an erosion control plan that details NPDES <br />requirements and is acceptable to the City. The plan and inspections reports for <br />this plan must be located on site with an indicated location on the plan. <br />Options: <br />1. Recommend approval <br />2. Other recommendation <br />• <br />
