• <br />Memorandum <br />To: Michael Grochalla <br />CC: Jeff Smyser <br />From: Marty Asleson <br />Date: 2/4 /2003 <br />Re: Staff Report Recommendations&Bruggeman and living Waters Luther <br />Church/Environmental Board Meeting, January 29, 2003 <br />Staff made the following Recommendations: <br />Living Waters Lutheran Church: <br />Since 1993 (the time The church was built), the Environmental Board has consistently <br />asked new surface water management features to buffer watershed features. The Area to <br />the North is designated' as a High - Priority Protection Area in the Lino Lakes Handbook for <br />Conservation Design. Soils in this area are sandy, and pervious. If an infiltration train were <br />designed into the site plan, there appears to be enough separation between the OHW and a <br />.designed rainpondlswail area. The rain pond area must be in an area where the Seasonally <br />high water table is at least 3 feet from the bottom of the pond. Please refer to (Attachment <br />8). The seasonally high ground -water level should be verified. Peak flow analysis indicates <br />a .23 cfs increase in water volume flow in a two year event, a .32 cfs increase in water <br />volume flow in a 10 year event, and a .36 increase in water volume flow for a 100 year <br />event for the *entire site. The basin should be designed if possible to accommodate this <br />extra surface water volume, if not for the entire site. Additional ponding is shown in the turf <br />areas. No surface -water analysis information is available at this time. <br />The soil areas around proposed remaining pervious areas should be protected from <br />compaction during construction. A buffer of native plants incorporated Into edges and a <br />surface - water - treatment -train should be planted. Ground story materials should be native in <br />the ponding and drainage areas. All proposed sod areas should have at least 4 inches of <br />topsoil tilled thoroughly into the subsoil as deep as possible. <br />A detailed landscape plan should indicate more foundation plants. A few oak trees should <br />be planted into the surface water treatment areas. Suggest changing the Sugar maples to a <br />variety of Red maple or oak <br />Although there is no proposed lighting for the added space on the church, the possibility <br />exists that there may be a need to light the building in the future. If this should happen, than <br />the lighting should be down ward focused, no -spill type lighting. <br />1 <br />EXHIBIT L <br />
