open space. For residential PDO's, at least fifty (50) percent of the shore impact zone area of existing developments or at least seventy (70) percent of the shore impacts zone area of new developments must be preserved in its natural or existing state. For commercial PDO's, at least fifty (50) percent of the shore impact zone must be preserved in its natural state. E. Erosion Control and Stormwater Management. Erosion control and stormwater management plans must be developed and the PDO must: 1. Be designed, and the construction managed, to minimize the likelihood of serious erosion occurring either during or after construction. This must be accomplished by limiting the amount and length of time or bare ground exposure. Temporary ground covers, sediment entrapment facilities, vegetated buffer strips, or other appropriate techniques must be used to minimize erosion impacts on surface water features. Erosion control plans must be in accordance with the Lino Lakes Local Water Management Plan and approved by the City Council. 2. Be designed and constructed to effectively manage reasonably expected quantities and qualities of stormwater runoff. Impervious surface coverage must not exceed thirty-five (35) percent with an approved stormwater management plan and consistency with Section 1102.09. F. Centralization and Design of Facilities. Centralization and design of facilities and structures must be done according to the following standards: 1. Planned development overlays must be connected to publicly owned water supply and sewer systems. 2. Dwelling units or sites must be clustered into one or more groups and located on suitable areas of the development. They must be designed and located to meet or exceed the following dimensional standards for the relevant shoreland classification, setback from the ordinary high water level, elevation above the surface water features, and maximum height. 3. Shore recreation facilities, including but not limited to swimming areas, docks, and watercraft mooring areas and launching ramps, must be centralized and located in areas suitable for them. Said shared lake access must be approved by the City Council. Evaluation of suitability must include consideration of land slope, water depth, vegetation, soils, depth to groundwater and bedrock, or other relevant factors. The number of spaces provided for continuous beaching, mooring, or docking of watercraft must not exceed one (1) for each allowable dwelling unit or site in the first tier (notwithstanding existing mooring sites in an existing commercially used harbor). Launching ramp facilities including a small dock for loading and unloading equipment, may be provided for use by occupants of dwelling units or sites located in other tiers. 4. Structures, parking areas, and other facilities must be treated to reduce visibility as viewed form public waters and adjacent shorelands by vegetation, topography, increased setbacks, color, or other means acceptable to the City Council, Page 28
