A. NE Drainage Area Study Update
DRAFT MINUTES
Evironmental Board
March 30, 2016
Page 2
Ms. Thompson from WSB & Associates presented an update from the February
meeting. The NE Area Drainage feasibility study models the drainage for 1400
acres of land on the east and west side of I -35E, and north of Main Street. The
draft feasibility study was completed in January 2016 and submitted to City staff for
review. After review, an additional option was requested to be considered. The new
option includes an open -channel greenway between Peltier Lake and 20th Ave. The
meandering channel will be used so it doesn't look like a drainage ditch and it would
have a 60' to a 100' top width and a 10' bottom width.
Total phosphorus concentrations were provided by RCWD for use in the permit
application. Mr. Heiskary also provided some additional concentrations for
evaluation. Don't want to over treat or under treat the site for concentrations.
Ms. Bor asked if the landowners are aware of the project and if they have been
notified
Ms. Thompson said they have been notified and they are aware of the study. And
when the concept is closer to be finalized the effected landowners will be brought in
for a discussion of the plan.
Ms. Kaufenberg asked how will you go forward and figure out which phosphorus
concentrations numbers to use in the loading calculations since there is a variety of
numbers in this report.
Ms. Thompson said they will be reaching out to the RCWS and MPCA and also
using numbers from other studies that have been done in the area.
Mr. Sullivan asked will the Environmental Board be able to see the revised study
before it goes to Council.
Ms. Thompson said yes the board will be seeing the revised study before it goes to
Council.
Ms. Klebba asked who would be maintaining of the meandering channel
Ms. Thompson the City would be in charge of maintaining of the waterway.
Plantings would be grasses and no trees.
Ms. Bor voiced her concern into the current drainage that occurs into Peltier Lake.
As of now the water does run over the city road.
Ms. Thompson said that RCWS will look at the study after there is a finalized plan.

B. Mattamy Storm Water Reuse and Irrigation System
Erin Heydinger, water engineer from WSB & Associates, presented the overview of
three options for Stormwater reuse in the proposed Mattamy development. The
board was first presented the feasibility study was at the January 2016 meeting.
Why water reuse — water conservation, White Bear Lake settlement —reducing water
usage by 17% and storm water maintenance.
There was a water balance study using 50 years of rainfall data making sure the lake
in the development would be sufficient for water reuse project.
The options were:
1. Reusing Stormwater to irrigate public places
2. Reusing Stormwater to irrigate public places and the townhome
3. Reusing storm water to irrigate the entire development
The City would own the system and would be involved in maintaining of the pumps
The recommendation based on the water balance and cost analysis is option 2. This
is watering of the townhome area, the park and the berm.
Some grant funding maybe available through RCWS and the Metropolitan Council
they do have some funds for storm water reusing projects.
There was discussion and concerns on:
• Depth of the pond
• Size of the berm and plantings on the berm
• Greenway plantings
• How would the system be controlled for option 2
• Association agreement of when to water and winterization of the system
• Size of sprinkler heads
• Health concerns with reuse storm water
• Aeration of the lake
• Pump filters being used to take out sediments, sensor for chloride
• Stormwater fees will be charged to residents of development for irrigation
• Number of units — 840
• Signage around the lake notifying residents of water quality
• Grass buffers around lake
• The water level of a drawdown of the lake
• More information of hybrid system
Mr. Schwartz made a motion to pass this on to the council in favor of option 3.
But we need more numbers to see how much water would be needed for option 3.

Ms. Klebba was in favor of option 2 for this phase of the development and maybe in
the next phase we could look at option 3.
Ms. Bor stated as we look at this project and all the environmental considerations
and as goes through it phases and then on to Planning and Zoning our impact here is
to make a recommendation.
Ms. Hankee mentioned that more studies would cost more money and having
multiple options would also have to go through council to approve using tax payers
money for the new studies.
Ms. Bor asked if it is possible to have Mattamy representative at the next meeting.
Ms. Hankee said yes they should be here and she will contact them.
Ms. Bor asked for a new motion.
Mr. Sullivan would like to use the water from the lake to go to all areas. So when
there is not enough water then people would have to use their sprinklers.
Ms. Bor asked for a revised motion that would somehow build in with fairly clear
directions that as this development builds out that at each phase that additional
creativity will be used to see how to conserve water.
Mr. Asleson stated with our recommendation we could add- to the most reasonable
extent possible and have the engineers look at it.
Phase 1 will take 6 — 7 years.
Ms. Bor made a MOTION that we are recommending at a minimum the feasibility
study which encompass option 2. In addition we are encouraging the opportunity of
further enhancements of the stormwater utilizations on this project. Motion was
supported by Ms. Andrzejewski. Motion carried 6-0.
C. Wellhead Protection Plan
Ms. Heydinger presented the Adoption and Implementation of Wellhead Protection
Plan. On February 26, 2016 the MDH notified the City of Lino Lakes, that Part 2
Wellhead Protection Plan was officially approved. The goal of the plan is to prevent
human -caused contaminants from entering the water supply wells and to protect all
who use the water supply from adverse health effects associated with groundwater
contamination. The plan falls under the jurisdiction of the MDH and consists of two
parts.
DRAFT MINUTES
Evironmental Board
March 30, 2016
Page 5
Part 1 was completed in 2014 and is a technical exercise that uses groundwater
modeling to delineate the wellhead protection area (WHPA), Drinking Water Supply
Management Area(DWSMA) and includes a well and aquifer vulnerability
assessment. Part 1 addresses the three municipal water supply wells used by the City
and associated water aquifer.
Part 2 of the WHPP describes how the results of the Part 1 can be applies to best
protect a community's water supply. Once adopted, the Ciy must begin
implementation of these objectives.
Part 2 plan of action are listed with a few objectives for each:
• Well Management- maintain record of public/private wells within the
DWSMA. Educate private well owners
• Public Education -use the City's newsletter, website or water bill to provide
information on wellhead and groundwater protection.
• Storage Tank Management -notify owners and educate them
• Septic Systems -Coordinate with Anoka County to educate property owners
• Stormwater Management -educate the public on waste water management,
turf management and proper lawn care and water conservation
• Hazardous Waste Management -educate the public on the proper disposal of
hazardous waste items
• Data Collection -continue to collect and maintain data in order to improve
and make revisions to the plan
• Water Conservation -Implement a community -wide water conservation
program
• Land Use Planning and Zoning -Eliminate or reduce the potential risks to the
source water aquifer
• Implementation -Track and report WHP activities to aid in implementing
WHP objectives
• Evaluation -Complete an evaluate plan every 2 years
Cost up to $10,000 per year to implement this plan. Grants are available twice a year
from MN Department of Health to assist in funding. As of this time there is no cost -
share at this time.
Next step would the City Council formally adopts Plan. Implement the Plan and
MDH evaluation —every 2 '/2 years and WHPP amendment every 10 years.
For those that have a private well — they would have to get the information off the
website or newsletter. There is a list of all the private wells within the DSMA
Mr. Schwartz made a MOTION to approve the Plan as written. Motion was
supported by Ms. Kaufenberg.

Mr. Sullivan would like to add information to the newspaper and would like more
teeth in the well head protection plan. Items that he would like to educate public
about are water over usage, the poor quality of our lakes and proper mowing
practices.
Ms. Bor said that we can visit this again at the next meeting but would need a real
united effort by all boards and City Council to get behind an item that we are
passionate about. Put in on the web page and do weekly updates on how we are
improving.
Ms. Andrzejewski made a MOTION to recommend adopting the Well Head Plan. It
was supported by Ms. Kaufenberg. Motion carried 6-0
VI DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. Earth Day
Annual Earth Day is Saturday, April 23 at Wargo Nature Center from 12:30 —
3:OOpm.
Any updated photos should be sent to Mr. Heiskary so that he can upload them to the
power point presentation.
Seed balls will be the activity and Ms. Bor will order seeds and other supplies will
be gathered and made ready for event.
B. Site Visit Recommendations
Ms. Bor suggested in adding Mattamy development site and also the outlet at Peliter
Lake.
C. Organics Recycling
Most of responses came from the southern and western sections of the city. The drop
off sites will be Marshan Park and Birch Park.
Ms. Klebba suggested the fire station as a drop off site also.
Starting on May 2 there will be a soft opening and limited hours. There will be
someone there and also signage during the limited hours. Then a month of limited
hours and then on June 6 people that are signed up will receive the code for the
locked container so residents on the program can drop off whenever they like.
There is information on the city's web site about the program.

Natur-Tec® donated bags and a limited number of pails as a hand out for the
residents that have signed up for the program. Also will be contacting home owners
associations to get them interested.
Long term look out -don't see too much increase right away. During the summer we
will see what happens. This is a pilot program. Hoping that if it goes well the
county will pick up it up.
D. Other Recycling Updates
The City Council was presented with the Anoka County 2016 Agreement for
Residential Recycling Program and the 2016 Environmental Board Goals on March
14, 2016. Both items were approved.
Recycling Saturday on March 19, 2016 had paper shredding as an added event. It
was the most successfgul paper shredding event in Lino Lakes so far with
approximately 1200 pounds of paper shredded.
Next Recycling Saturday will be April 6, 2016.
Lino Lakes Annual Recycling Day will be Saturday, May 7, 2016 from 9AM — 3PM.

AGENDA ITEM 5A
Marty Asleson, Environmental Coordinator
April 27, 2016
Preliminary Plat and Site Plan Review
Watermark
Mattamy Partnership
Attn: Rick Packer
7201 Washington Avenue S.
Edina, MN 55439
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT/BACKGROUND
The Mattamy proposed development site is a 372 ac. land mass on the NE side of the
city. See Location Map attachment. The site is bounded by I 35E on the East side, 20th
avenue on the west side, the Park and Ride area on the south side, and Rehbein Street to
the north. The site consists of a residential density mix of single family lots and
townhomes totaling 876 housing units. The proposed development is called
"Watermark". The Area Watershed Calculations for Watermark are attached.
SITE CHARACTERISTICS
The Watermark site is an agricultural use area. The site is heavily drain -tiled in many
areas. The site is fairly flat. There are approximately 1800 trees on the site. Most of
these trees are on the western periphery along 20th Avenue. The soils are for the most
part clay. The site receives noise from the freeway and from 20th Ave.
ANALYSIS
Soils
Soils management in the Watermark proposal site is most important consideration from a
water management and plant growth perspective. The soils in the Watermark proposal
site are very thick glacial deposits of unconsolidated glacial till. These soils are clay with
everything else including rocks, boulders and gravel areas. The soils are classified as
B/D soils that signifies the soils are drained, and have little infiltration (see attachment).
Project soil borings show a fairly consistent subsoil consisting of sandy clay with some
occasional traces of gravel down to 16 feet. Water elevations in some the test borings
1
show up around 6 to 8 feet down. Further discussion of soils management is under
Surface Water Management and Landscaping in this report.
Recommendation: Soils should be monitored for impacts to the Drinking Water Service
area contamination, and existing wetland resources. Impacts can be created by
uncovering a "gravel -vein" where polluted water can enter into a DWSMA water source,
and where wetlands can be drained by creating a drain situation in regards to the wetland.
Gravel and or other pervious areas encountered in excavation areas for ponds and created
wetlands and general excavation must be sealed. Special consideration must be given to
site horticultural practices, and compacted soils discussed later in this report.
As with all developments, environmental concerns for soil compatibility has been a
recommendation that no soils shall be imported on to the site without City staff approval.
Land Cover
For the most part, this area has been cropped, and the area is classified as upland with
cropped vegetation. There are approximately 1800 trees on the western periphery of the
site.
Before cropping on this site, "Marschner" Original Vegetation Map, showed this area as
partly as big woods, and partly bogs, and swamps.
Lino Lakes is fortunate to be geographically located in the mixing area of at least two of
the three state biomes; the Deciduous Forest Biome and the Prairie grassland biome.
These two original vegetation types were mixed into this area. Areas that historically had
high water tables and poor drainage were swamps, and areas that had higher infiltration
and better drainage had Big Woods (Hardwood Forest).
Recommendation: Consideration for the "Big -woods, Eastern Hardwood Forest" types
of tree and vegetation should be incorporated into the landscape plan.
Comprehensive Plan
The Resources Management System Plan section of the City Comprehensive Plan directs
citywide development to:
• Apply a conservation design framework to development
• Create a system of incentives to achieve the goals of the Resources Management
Plan
• Establish a volume reduction overlay
• Implement the updated Parks, Greenways and Trail System
The Resources Management Plan calls out for the preservation of Lino Lakes' natural
resources and amenities. DNR Regionally Significant Ecological Areas (RSEA's) shows
that none of their mapped RSEA's fall into the project area.
2
The Watermark proposal has a system of open space, trails and park integration that fall
into the design considerations of the Lino Lakes Parks, Open Space and Trails Plan. The
Watermark site plan includes:
• Total open space of 143.79 acres or 38.6% of the project acreage.

Recommendation: This Greenway addresses the intentions of the Resource
Management Plan as much as practical using the multi -functional use approach including
integrating passive and active recreational opportunities, cultural integration, as well as
ensuring the natural resource preservation of existing site elements (wetlands and soils)
through the use of stormwater design, wetland protection, native plantings, and design for
the benefit of people and wildlife of concern.

Surface Water Management
City and Rice Creek Watershed District Rules state that development creating impervious
surfaces shall address "Better Site Design" (BSD) techniques. BSD techniques used in
the site design include but are not limited to:
• Reduced street widths
• Soil amendments are suggested
• Open space design
• Management of open space
• Included wetlands within outlots with buffers
• Conservation of existing trees
• Use of native vegetation
• Extended easements for buffer purposes
Water quality treatment standard is required for the first 1.1 -inch rainfall on impervious
areas. This treatment is for phosphorous removal. Factors for approved BMP's are given
in the rule. Infiltration has a Phosphorous removal factor of 1.0; water reuse, 1.0; bio
filtration .65; filtration, .5; stormwater wetlands, .55; stormwater ponds, 60.
The development must provide infiltration where feasible. If that is not possible, then
any BMP can be chosen for an equivalent runoff volume reduction. Infiltration is not
possible on this site because of the soils
Where infiltration is not possible treatment alternatives include:
• Water Reuse
• Bio -filtration
• Filtration
• Stormwater Wetlands
• Stormwater Ponds.
The developer has chosen an approved method of volume and water quality treatment.
That treatment is pipes from the street to a connected system of stormwater wetlands,
pretreatment ponds, and then into National Urban Runoff Ponds (NURP) and water reuse.
Native plants are proposed for greenway areas. Native plants can eventually allow for
some infiltration, and also have filtration benefits.
Re -use is one of the BMP's that can be used, and is being proposed to be used for water
quality/volume treatment in the Watermark proposal. The City is proposing to require
water reuse through the use of an irrigation system for open space areas and possibly the
town home area. This is a BMP that is being used more and more and would help to
reduce volume and phosphorous loading to the watershed. Reuse would also reduce the
use of fresh groundwater pumping for landscape. The Environmental Board had
previously recommended that water reuse be used to the maximum amount practical.
4
A watershed district permit is required for development on this site for water quality and
Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) requirements. National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) must be obtained. A City permit obtained that incorporates an approved
stormwater management plan for the Mattamy project.as per City Ordinance 1011.011.
The Resources Management System Plan Section of the City Comprehensive Plan
embraces the concept of sustainability. Sustainability as a driving force in the
Comprehensive Plan that links ecological integrity, social equity, and economic
prosperity. The Resources Management System Plan provides the Conservation Design
Framework for the Comprehensive Plan and Sustainable decisions regarding growth and
development.
It is from this Design Framework that at least from a natural resources management
perspective that water treatment and volume retention in a Treatment Train approach is
most desirable. As in past projects, the Environmental Board has recommended a surface
water treatment train approach to development in order to create a more natural area
hydrograph. Other BMP's that should be considered are filtration berms and swales, and
check dams in areas where surface water drainage occurs on the slope sides of lots where
appropriate.
Filtration systems can be integrated into the design in swale areas in rear yards as noted
in the City Engineer's report. Ripping, or spade tilling compacted yard subsoils, along
with adequate topsoil, will keep more water on site. Another very simple BMP is
requiring direction of rain gutter down spouts to pervious areas. Small volume reductions
along the surface water -way can help to reduce volumes of stormwater leaving the site.
Recommendation: Enhance the BMP's for stormwater treatment train to the maximum
amount practical including the use of berms, sand and iron filtration systems, and soil
modifications.
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
A Storm -Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must be designed that addresses all
aspects of the contract signed with the MPCA. The SWPPP must address all the specifics
of unique site design, BMP's and Minimal Impact Design Standards (MIDS) that will be
used for the project.
AUAR Considerations
Watermark is in the Alternative Urban Area -Wide Review (AUAR) study and
implementation area. The Final AUAR, was prepared for the City of Lino Lakes in
accordance with Minnesota Rules Chapter 4410, in 2005. The AUAR was subsequently
updated in 2010 and 2015. The following review of the AUAR was done by WSB and
City Engineer Diane Hankee:
5
1. Based on this review the Watermark development is generally in conformance
with the AUAR.
2. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.1. The Conservation Design Framework shows two
greenways going North-South. The Watermark plan appears to show one corridor
that is connected with a second less connected corridor. The City has reviewed
the plan and has determined that it meets the intent of the Conservation Design
Framework.
3. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.7. The AUAR requires surmountable curb for turtle
and wildlife passage. The City Environmental Coordinator verified that this is not
a Blanding' s Turtle site; however, to accommodate wildlife passage
approximately 90 percent of the roadways within the proposed development
include surmountable curb.
4. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.8. The AUAR requires an eagle nest survey. There
are not many trees on the site and thus it is not anticipated that there would be
eagle nests. A site investigation by the City Environmental Staff was performed
and found no eagle nest on the subject property.
5. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.10. The AUAR requires a rare plant survey to be
completed in wetlands and other designated areas. City Environmental Staff
performed the rare plant survey review and concluded that no rare plants were
found on the subject property.
6. AUAR Mitigation Section 13 and 18 — Water Use and Wastewater. The plan is in
conformance with the AUAR (per WSB memo dated March 16, 2016 regarding
the water main review).
7. AUAR Mitigation Item 19.1. The AUAR requires all underground tanks be
removed. A Phase 1 and 2 Environmental Site Assessment has been completed
for site. A storage tank in the basement of the residence on the northwestern
corner of the site was noted. As part of development, tanks will need to be
removed in conformance with State standards.
8. AUAR Mitigation Item 25.1. The AUAR requires a Phase 1 cultural resource
study to be completed. This study has been completed and no sites were
identified. The plan is in conformance with the AUAR.
9. AUAR Mitigation Item 27.2. The AUAR requires clustering, buffering, and/or
screening. The plans show screening options between I-35 and the development.
This is in conformance with the AUAR.
10. The updated Noise Study, dated March 3rd 2016 was reviewed. The following
comments should be addressed by the applicant:
a. The site that was shown in the wrong location on Figures 1.1, 2.1 and 2.2 has
been revised with the updated study memo.
The AUAR included review and analysis of the ecologically sensitive areas within the
study area. For the AUAR recent update, the DNR Natural Heritage Database
information was updated. This update contains additional known occurrences of rare
species or natural communities within a one -mile radius of the study area as compared to
the data from the original AUAR.
6
Within one mile of the Watermark site, there is a colonial water bird nesting area (our
Heron Rookery), a documented Bald Eagle nesting site (no longer there), undocumented
Water Willow around Peltier Island, an upland Sandpiper to the south and east, and a
Blanding's Turtle to the South and East.
There are no site specific indicators that would place rare plants on the site.
There is a City Managed Heron Rookery less than a mile from parts of the site.
Consideration for the Herons and the loss of habitat is an issue that could be addressed in
the preservation of wetlands and the creation of new water features. The Great Blue
Heron and Great White Egret both nest on Peltier Lake Island, but often fly to outside
Peltier Lake Locations to feed. Benches in the pond design could be designed to create a
wading/fishing area for the birds, as well as safety features for residents.
Recommendation: Incorporate shallow areas/benches in pond/mitigation area where
practical.
Additional Cultural Elements
Creating and enhancing wetlands and new lake areas will provide enhanced foraging for
the Herons and provide a nice amenity to resource viewing residents. The over-all design
of Watermark, appears to tie into the City Resource Management Plan
A Natural Resources Wetland Preservation Corridor and Natural Resources Corridor
Enhancement Area go through this site. The corridor as shown in the Comprehensive
Plan was based on thought at that time of how this corridor should look with the area
planned enhancements by the development concept at that time. The Mattamy plan
appears to incorporate greenway concept as identified in comp plan. The Resources
Management Plan calls for a unified, and contiguous approach to open space, trails and
resources, integrated into a green way corridor.
Greenway corridors are meant to capture high value resources and in areas of impacted
resources, enhance and improve those areas with the establishment of new green way
areas.
Floodplain Review
City Engineer Diane Hankee submitted the following review for Watermark Floodplain:
The proposed project has been reviewed against the currently effective FEMA Flood
Insurance Rate Maps, dated December 16, 2015, and we offer the following comments:
1. The project proposes fill of, and changes to, the effective FEMA floodplain
boundaries and will require a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) from FEMA. All
existing floodplain shown on the property is approximate Zone A, however
because the project is proposing to develop more than 5 acres, the developer will
7
need to provide a detailed study for the Conditional Letter of Map Revision
(CLOMR) request with the final plat submittal, which would include establishing
base flood elevations for the site.
2. A copy of the CLOMR application should be submitted with the final plat
application.
3. The City will not issue building permits for lots affected by floodplain without an
approved LOMR.
Drinking Water Protection
The Drinking Water Service Management Area (DWSMA) map attachment shows the
area of Watermark that is covered by a "Moderately -Susceptible" vulnerability area to
drinking water pollution, and an area on the south side that is considered as a "high -
vulnerability area". "Drinking water supply management area" means the surface and
subsurface area surrounding a public water supply well, including the wellhead protection
area that must be managed by the entity identified in a wellhead protection plan.
"Drinking water supply management area vulnerability" means an assessment of the
likelihood for a potential contaminant source within the drinking water supply
management area to contaminate a public water supply well, or the susceptibility of a
water supply to contamination from activities at the land surface. There is also a high -
vulnerability wellhead protection area DWSMA Map Attachment 2 extending up into the
southern reaches of the Watermark site from Centerville.
Aquifers in moderately -susceptible areas are semi -confined and may have some influence
from surface water recharge and impact from land surface activities. Non -confining
layers that may exist when large and deep ponds are excavated should be addressed for
ensuring no contamination to the aquafer, and for that matter damage to wetland
protection areas. The site development must be evaluated for potential contamination
issues such as this, and other issues identified in the City of Lino Lakes Well Head
Protection Plan.
Excavated areas that may hit a non -confining layer or "gravel/sand vein" must be sealed.
Soil borings from the site show some instances where gravel layers are present. With
this, the plan should include an adaptive -management approach to grading the project. If
a gravel "vein" is encountered, then sealing that vein must be accomplished so that
ground water contamination does not occur, or confining wetlands are not drained.
Pollution Investigation
A Phase One and Phase Two study was completed for the Watermark site. The studies
were done to determine any site contamination issues. Phase One of the studies looked at
the soil between 1 and 5 feet into the ground. The Phase One study concluded there were
no existing impacts detected on the site between 1 and 5 feet into the soil.
The Phase Two study looked at structures. Phase Two discover thirty loads of
Agricultural lime buried on the site. They determined that the lime was a recognized
8
environmental condition. In addition, the study states there is reason to believe there may
be environmental contamination around the demolished farmstead buildings that were in
the area of the Quonset building standing today. It is possible demolition and /or
hazardous waste may have been buried in this area. They recommend additional
evaluation of this area if houses are built there.
Phase Two also mentions the two wells on the site and possible septic systems. There is
one well -casing that shows up on the County Well Index (CWI) file. The well point is 74
feet deep. The well point is on the north and west side of the development proposal.
Unless this well is needed by the developer during or after development, the well must be
sealed.
The other well on the site is an abandoned irrigati0on well in the middle of the site. The
well is approximately 10 inches in diameter and was used for agricultural irrigation. The
well has not been used for at least 15 years. The well is not in the state database. There
is some interest in using the well again. The City Utility Supervisor will be starting the
process to inspect the well casing for integrity, and have the information for the well
recorded with the Department of Health if it is determined to start using the well again. If
not the well should be sealed.
One thing in particular to pay attention to is the Koch petroleum pipeline running through
this project area. This pipeline/pipelines carry crude oil. Discussion with Koch and
designing development around this pipeline has occurred. A plan for containment of
petroleum product spill/leak and or public safety issue should be in place.
Recommendation: Seal well with CWI FID number 66451, unique number 00440015
under the name of Arnold Thies. Restore the irrigation well if possible and record the
well with the Department of health with the State of Minnesota. If not used, seal the
irrigation well. Remove any septic systems on the property. Follow the
recommendations of Phase One and Phase Two studies; that is, properly dispose of
contamination issues from septic, well hole abandonment, buried lime, and other buried
hazardous waste and construction materials.
Tree Preservation
The entire site is considered a basic use area. The developer proposes the following tree

Most of the trees that will be saved are on the periphery of the project proposal. Some of
the proposed save trees should be removed such as the Ash and American Elms. The
Red Elms could be left. The Hawthorn, if the native or thorny type, should be removed.
The Cottonwoods and Silver Maples should be looked at for defects that would make
them hazardous trees and removed if hazardous.
Recommendation: Remove all Ash, American Elms, Silver Maples and Cottonwoods
that would be classified as hazardous trees, and /or trees listed as declining, unhealthy,
and any species growing in preserved wetland sites on the "Tree Save List". All
recommended tree removals from the "Save" list would not be considered a replacement
tree.

Wetlands
A wetland delineation was approved on March 20, 2014. The wetland delineation report
that was approved by the Rice Creek Watershed. Watermark Wetlands and Replacement
attachment. The map shows the location of approved wetlands on the site approved
location of wetlands on the site. The RCWD approved 28 wetlands that are present on
the site.
The Wetland Summary is as follows:
• Wetland Fill 3.85 Acres
• Wetland Excavation 5.61 Acres
• Total Wetland Impact 9.45 Acres
• Wetland Mitigation 15.10 Acres
• Wetland Enhancement Areas 4.86 Acres
• Wetland Management Corridor Buffer Area 2.45 Acres
• Wetland Corridor Area 10.70 Acres
Recommendation: All wetlands must be buffered according to standards, including a
minimum of 10 -foot requirement next to residential lots, and 50 -foot average in the
RCWD wetland management corridor. Signs marking buffer areas in these areas and
pond areas should be placed in each back yard notifying of no encroachment.
Wetlands remaining on the site must be protected from drainage and construction by silt
fence perimeter control and ensuring that area excavation does not hit a gravel or rock
"vein" connected into the wetland and drain it. If discovered, these veins must be sealed
to allow water to be maintained for wetland quality. Any water volumes coming from
new surface water configurations going into any wetlands, must be pretreated. For that
matter, all surface water flowing into new ponds should also be pretreated. A 10 -foot
buffer is required around wetland and pond areas Subdivision Ordinance 1001.098(9). If
it's a PUD, we can require more. In wetland management corridors a 50 -foot buffer is
required. There is an area that is in the middle section of the project on the east side that
is contiguous with the RCWD Wetland Management Corridor. This would need a 50 -
foot buffer, and is shown on the map. A plan to ensure long-term hydrology for these
wetlands must be provided. All excavations on the site that drain existing or proposed
wetlands should be sealed.
Lighting
Energy efficient LED lighting with minimum standards for light intensity should be
employed. Fixtures should be downward focused, with recessed with glare cut-off
features. Smart lighting technology such as networking to allow for more control of lamp
intensity and power usage should be looked into.
Landscape Plan Discussion and Recommendations
11
Attached is the Watermark proposed Landscape Plan. This is general plan illustrative
general type and location. A specific detailed plan will be required for review and
approval with each Final Plan stage.
Species selected for planting in this project must be tolerant of higher pH soils, or
modifications made to the soils to achieve a nearly neutral pH to slightly acid pH if plants
with lower pH needs are planted.
The following materials on the tree list should not be used:
• Any species of Ash
• Norway Maple
• Little Leaf Linden (Cordata Linden and Cordata crosses)
• Thorn bearing Hawthorns, and Plums
• Eastern Pin Oak (palustris)
• American Mountain Ash
• Silver Maple (or limited special uses)
The following plants would need soil modification to acid soil:
• Red Maple
• Northern Pin Oak
The following trees can be added:
• Bitternut Hickory
• Larch
• Thornless Cockspur Hawthorn
The following trees may be used in small amounts if a northern hardy stock (Zone 4B
USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map) is available. This would be at the approval of Lino
Lakes Environmental.
• Sycamore
• Scarlet Oak
• Chinquapin Oak
• Cucumber Tree
• Shagbark Hickory
• Tulip Poplar
The following plants would need soil modification to acidify soil:
• Red Maple
• Northern Pin Oak
The developer must escrow enough dollars to plant on boulevard tree on each frontage of
properties bordering a street.
City Planning will verify plant numbers in relationship to zoning code requirements for
replacements. A species list submitted needs editing.
12
Areas of the greenway must be planted with a native seed mix, and vegetation mix. This
mix should be compatible with heavier soils with a higher pH. A regimental plan with
seed mixes that match wetness/dryness characteristics must be used. Seed mixes and
vegetation restoration must be approved by the city. A 5 -year maintenance plan must be
developed by a company with a knowledge of native plant culture. The company must be
approved by the city. The maintenance plan must be approved by the city. A standard
maintenance agreement with the City of Lino Lakes and the Rice Creek Watershed must
be signed for all ponds and restoration areas.
Signs must be surveyed in and placed at the back of each property line/buffer area
informing new residents of the non -encroachment of the buffer with particular emphasis
on placing yard waste in those areas
Seed mixtures in wetland and pond buffers must be approved by the City. Seed labels
must be submitted to the city following establishment work is done.
The project should be designed and managed for landscape soils that do not exceed the
critical bulk density limits for plant growth. The on-site soils are easily compacted and
which creates excessive runoff and limits plant growth and health.
Soils management should contain a method to prevent or repair compacted soils in all
landscape areas. Without soils management in these heavier soils, almost all irrigation
and chemical applications will empty right back into the constructed ponds of the site.
Ripping and or Spade tilling and organic material incorporation into subsoils will be
important from a water quality standpoint and a vegetation reestablishment standpoint.
Recommendation: A soils management plan be sequenced in to the construction detail
sheet to provide for uncompacted soils that will support plant root growth. Top soil
should be incorporated into subsoils by ripping or spade tilling prior to placement of plant
materials.
Noise
A noise study was completed on March 28, 2016 by David Braslau and Associates, Inc.
Projected noise levels from I 35E and CSAH 54 were compared with the <PCA daytime
and nighttime noise standards.
Landscape berms will be constructed along both I 35E and CSAH 54. The berms along I
35E are approximately 150 feet in width and 25 feet high. A mix of deciduous and
coniferous trees and shrubs will be planted near the crown.
Summary of Noise Study Findings:
Homes along Interstate 35E
13
Predicted daytime sound levels at residential lots along Interstate 35E are generally
within the 65 dB standard or within modeling error. However, "nighttime" levels
between 6 and 7 am exceed the standards but exceptions to the state rules permit the
higher NAC -2 standards to be applied and the nighttime standards can be met.
Homes along CSAH 54
Predicted daytime sound levels at residential lots along CSAH 54 are just below the
daytime L10 standards. The "nighttime" levels between 6 and 7 am exceed the standards
but as with homes along Interstate 35E exceptions to the state rules permit the higher
NAC -2 standards to be applied and the nighttime standards can be met
Further sound reductions can be added to house construction elements if found to be
necessary.
Recycling
Watermark should consider placing trash and mixed recycling receptacles with clear
signage* (see attached) in each of the following areas:
1. Clubhouse:
- Fitness Room
- Bathrooms
-Office
- Foyer
-Lounge
- Kitchen
-Party Room
2. Public Park:
- Picnic Area
- Pickle ball/Basketball court
- Pre-K playground: trash receptacle only — this location typically generates a
small amount of recyclable items and large amounts of contamination
3. Open Space (Next to Public Park):
- Two trash receptacles along paths on east and west ends - this location
typically generates a small amount of recyclable items and large amounts of
contamination
4. Private Park:
- At least one trash receptacle recommended
5. Trails:
- Place trash receptacles along trails, and especially located at rest areas or near
benches
14
*The attached signs have been adapted throughout the seven county metro area in an
effort to standardize waste disposal messaging and make sorting more understandable for
Minnesota residents. Developers are encouraged to use these signs - or labels with
similar colors, pictures and symbols - to assist in this effort. Signs are available for free
at http://www.rethinkrecycling.com/businesses/signs.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat and site plan review including any
recommendations of the board.

We have reviewed the Preliminary Plat for Watermark in Lino Lakes, MN prepared by Carlson
McCain received on March 7, 2016.
For reference please see notes on the Preliminary Plat enclosed, along with the following
comments that should be responded to in writing by the applicant:
GRADING, EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
The preliminary grading, erosion and sediment control plans, dated March 4, 2016 and prepared
by Carlson McCain have been reviewed and we offer the following initial comments:
1. No erosion and sediment control comments at this time, a further review will be
completed once the construction plans for the applicable phase is submitted.
2. The applicant needs to provide project phasing detail or narrative, to address the
construction staging, berm and trail construction, and utility installation coordination.
3. Roadway grades are to be increased or storm water catch basins are to be less than 400
feet apart.
4. Cul du Sac grades are to be a minimum of 1 percent grade.
5. Roadways are to have high points at intersections when within 100 feet of the
intersection.
6. Review low floor, low openings, high water levels per city's stormwater management
policy
7. Storm sewer utilities located in rear yards should be designed/constructed along rear lot
lines where practical. Lot configuration could be modified to accommodate.
8. Percent grade of rear lot drainage swales required (2% desired — 1% min.)
9. Consider adding rock filtration underdrains along rear lot lines with storm sewer to
enhance water quality and reduce volume discharge.
10. Emergency overflow locations and elevations not shown for all ponds, wetlands and lake
features.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
The stormwater management for the proposed Watermark Development was reviewed against
the proposed Northeast Drainage Area InfoSWMM model high water elevations from March 30,
2016 and enclosed (see Attachment 1).
1. Include water re -use system layout and water fountains in plans. The re -use pump
stations should not be located near storm sewer outlets.
2. Normal and critical duration high water levels are provided (attached) — please review
maximum water elevations versus proposed grading. The high water elevation may not
encroach onto private property.
3. Stormwater modeling needs to be submitted based on the proposed phasing plan for
development.
4. Emergency overflow elevations need to be shown on the plans.
5. Low floor elevations have been reviewed against the maximum high water elevations and
structures with deficiencies in freeboard requirements are noted on redlined plans.
6. Many of the proposed ponds have more than four feet of bounce; ensure proposed plan
species in this zone are tolerant of extended inundation. Plantings in this area may also
require a full growing season at a moderated bounce levels to ensure establishment.
7. Drain tile lines need to be re-routed and all drainage rights must be maintained per
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103E.
8. Soil amendments for filtration at pond 300 to the adjacent wetland and pond 20 to outlot
J.
9. It is recommended that rear yard filtration systems be considered.
10. A stormwater management plan has not been provided and will be required for final
approval.
11. Provide details for outlet control structures and pond interconnections
FLOODPLAIN
The proposed project has been reviewed against the currently effective FEMA Flood Insurance
Rate Maps, dated December 16, 2015, and we offer the following comments:
1. The project proposes fill of, and changes to, the effective FEMA floodplain boundaries
and will require a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) from FEMA. All existing floodplain
shown on the property is approximate Zone A, however because the project is proposing
to develop more than 5 acres, the developer will need to provide a detailed study for the
Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) request with the final plat submittal,
which would include establishing base flood elevations for the site.
2. A copy of the CLOMR application should be submitted with the final plat application.
3. The City will not issue building permits for lots affected by floodplain without an
approved LOMR.
WETLANDS
1. The project proposes 4.432 acres of wetland fill and 5.022 acres of wetland excavation
with on-site mitigation for wetland impacts. On-site mitigation is proposed to be
completed by creating 13.012 acres of new wetland, 4.842 acres of restored wetland, and
13.115 acres of created upland buffer. (Impact/Mitigation calculations taken from the

Ms. Katie Larsen
April 06, 2016
Page 3
Wetland Permit Application, Appendix A) Wetland impacts and mitigation appear to be
in compliance with Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) standards and in compliance with
Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) Wetland Alteration rules. MnRAMs were
completed for each wetland for sequencing discussions on impacts of wetlands. Wetland
impacts associated with building houses will need a thorough explanation and sequencing
discussion to obtain TEP approval. Based on our review, we offer the following
comments:
a. Based on construction phasing and mitigation, a review of the proposed hydrology
should occur by the LGU prior to full build out to ensure proper hydrology
requirements for wetland mitigation will occur before the entire project is completed.
b. A wetland monitoring and management plan will need to be submitted as part of the
replacement plan for WCA and RCWD Approval. Their wetland permit application
states that supporting information regarding vegetation management/maintenance and
the annual monitoring will be submitted under a separate cover.
ENVIRONMENTAL
1. Based on this review the Watermark development is generally in conformance with the
AUAR.
2. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.1. The Conservation Design Framework shows two greenways
going North-South. The Watermark plan appears to show one corridor that is connected
with a second less connected corridor. The City has reviewed the plan and has
determined that it meets the intent of the Conservation Design Framework.
3. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.7. The AUAR requires surmountable curb for turtle and
wildlife passage. The City Environmental Coordinator verified that this is not a
Blandings Turtle site; however to accommodate wildlife passage approximately 90
percent of the roadways within the proposed development include surmountable curb.
4. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.8. The AUAR requires an eagle nest survey. There are not
many trees on the site and thus it is not anticipated that there would be eagle nests. A site
investigation by the City Environmental Staff was performed and found no eagle nest on
the subject property.
5. AUAR Mitigation Item 11.10. The AUAR requires a rare plant survey to be completed
in wetlands and other designated areas. City Environmental Staff performed the rare
plant survey review and concluded that no rare plants were found on the subject property.
6. AUAR Mitigation Section 13 and 18 — Water Use and Wastewater. The plan is in
conformance with the AUAR (per WSB memo dated March 16, 2016 regarding the
watermain review).
7. AUAR Mitigation Item 19.1. The AUAR requires all underground tanks be removed. A
Phase 1 and 2 Environmental Site Assessment has been completed for site. A storage
tank in the basement of the residence on the northwestern corner of the site was noted. As
part of development, tanks will need to be removed in conformance with State standards.
8. AUAR Mitigation Item 25.1. The AUAR requires a Phase 1 cultural resource study to be
completed. This study has been completed and no sites were identified. The plan is in
conformance with the AUAR.
9. AUAR Mitigation Item 27.2. The AUAR requires clustering, buffering, and/or screening.
The plans show screening options between I-35 and the development. This is in
conformance with the AUAR.

10. The updated Noise Study, dated March 3rd 2016 was reviewed. The following comments
should be addressed by the applicant:
a. The site that was shown in the wrong location on Figures 1.1, 2.1 and 2.2 has been
revised with the updated study memo.
WATER SYSTEM
1. Note the attached water system memo dated April 5, 2016 (Attachment 2) that outlines
the system needs based on the proposed development and the City's comprehensive plan.
2. A 12 inch diameter watermain shall be looped on the northwest end of the plat.
3. The 16 inch diameter watermain shall be looped through the park.
4. Hydrants shall be installed next to the stormwater re -use system pumps.
5. Fire hydrant locations shall be reviewed by the City's Fire Division staff. 300 foot
maximum hydrant spacing.
6. A hydrant shall be installed on Street F between Street G and Street C.
7. All hydrant leads shall be a minimum of 6 inches in diameter.
8. The dual 8 inch lines in Street U shall be separated as much as possible (opposite sides of
the road).
9. The 16 inch trunk watermain loop to the east shall be installed under 135E when the
adjacent phase of the development is constructed. This will be a City improvement
project. Show on the plat documents as such.
10. A 12 inch watermain stub is to be extended under CSAH 54 at 77th Street for future
looping.
11. An 8 inch water stub to the south shall be installed at the Townhomes (at the trail
location). This will provide a future loop to the south parcel.
SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM
1. An 18 -inch sanitary line shall be extended along Street A to CSAH 54 and along Street B
to the roundabout, at maximum depth. An 8 -inch sanitary line shall be stubbed under
CSAH 54 to the west.
2. Please provide either sanitary system profiles or all pipe lengths and slopes so that invert
elevations can be verified.
3. With the second phase of the development, assuming phase one has approximately 100
residential connections, the lift station No. 8 pump upgrade will need to be completed.
This will be a City improvement project.
TRANSPORTATION
1. The traffic study, dated February 13, 2015 and latest technical memo dated March 25,
2016 prepared by Spack Consulting still needs to be refined as detailed below.
However, we generally concur that the development can be accommodated with the
roadway system proposed.
2. The Watermark development access spacing was reviewed in coordination with Anoka
County staff during the concept plan review stage. The access spacing is also in
conformance with those outlined in the AUAR completed for this area. The access was
K:\02029-820\Admin\Does\20160516 Engineering Review Lino Lakes-Mattamy.doex
Ms. Katie Larsen
April 06, 2016
Page 5
laid out based on Anoka County access spacing guidelines and the following
considerations:
• South access: Goal to connect 21st Avenue to the west using the existing access at
73rd Street to minimize CSAH 54 access points.
• Middle access: Within 100 to 200 feet of the access guidelines, located to avoid
wetland impacts on the west side of CSAH 54.
• North access: Rehbein Street was used verses 77th Street due to wetland impacts.
Goal was to connect to existing intersections and minimize CSAH 54 access
points.
Anoka County requires that each access location meets County sight — distance
requirements. The applicant will need to provide this analysis for approval by the County
with the preliminary plat.
3. Anoka County requires left and right turn lanes on CSAH 54 at each new City street
access. These include Rehbein Street, 73rd Street, and Street B. Cross sections for the
turn lanes on CSAH 54 need to be included in the plans to verify they can be constructed
within the existing/proposed right of way. Specifically the right turn lane at Street D.
The applicant will need to have the preliminary design reviewed by Anoka County with
the preliminary plat.
4. The applicant needs to provide clarification regarding the outbound lanes needed for City
streets exiting onto CSAH 54. The Daily Traffic volumes shown in the update memo on
the figure appear to be inconsistent with previous analysis. The traffic volume submittals
summarized:
o Original Study February 13, 2015 - 450 at Street D, 2970 at Street B and 1380 at
Street A
o March 9, 2015 revised site plan figure 4 - 1570 at Street D, 1850 at Street B and
1380 at Street A
o March 27, 2015 update memo - 1870 at Street D, 1820 at Street B and 1430 at
Street A
o March 25, 2016 update memo - 1970 at Street D, 1930 at Street B and 1380 at
Street A
The applicant should respond to the following:
a. Why did Street D and Street B increase from the 2015 updated memo to the 2016
update memo?
b. Why did Street D increase by 100 vehicles when the internal approaches only went up
20 vehicles?
c. Why did Street A decrease from 2015 update memo to the 2016 update memo?
5. The City's maximum cul du sac length is 500 feet from the centerline of the roadway to
end of the right of way. There are a number of cul du sacs exceeding this length and they
should be addressed by the applicant (Streets F,K,P,Q,L, and future V).
6. Street C exceeds the City's maximum block length of 1,500 feet. See comment below.
7. Street V should be a through roadway, within the ghost plat, and connect to Street C.
8. Direct driveway access on Street D should be removed between CSAH 54 and Street C,
or a center median constructed. The roadway should be 36 feet based on the traffic
K:\02029-820\Admin\Does\20160516 Engineering Review Lino Lakes-Mattamy.doex
Ms. Katie Larsen
April 06, 2016
Page 6
volumes proposed. The lots on the south side could access of Street V and lot 126 could
access off of Street C.
9. The traffic study should be updated to include an analysis of the planned roundabout at
the intersection of Street B and Street E.
10. For streets exiting onto CSAH 54 the County and City required clear zones shall be met.
The Landscaping Plan shall reflect this.
11. Street B medians are to have vegetation that is less than 3 feet in height.
12. A typical section for Street B between CSAH 54 and the Roundabout should be provided.
13. The applicant should consider extending the median between CSAH 54 and the
Roundabout. This would improve safety and eliminate the median ends with signing.
14. A trail along Street B from CSAR 54 to the park should be included in lieu of sidewalk
on one side of the roadway.
15. Street U shall be 20 foot wide on each side approaching Street A.
16. Street 0 shall be 20 foot wide on each side at the entrance median approaching Street A
to match Street U.
17. Street B at the entrance median to Street A shall be 20 foot wide.
18. A detail for a 6 foot sidewalk is provided, however each typical section shows a 5 foot
sidewalk. These should be changed accordingly.
19. Between development phases, temporary cul du sacs need to be installed to service the
adjacent homes.
PARK GRADING & UTILITIES
1. General proposed grades in the park appear to be suitable for development of the
modified master plan with the following considerations:
a. Grades in the general location of the proposed courts and playground shall be level as
courts and playgrounds are built at a 1.0% slope.
b. Trail grades are not to exceed 5% slope with a maximum 2% slope at all trail
intersections and it appears this will be feasible according to the plans.
c. The open lawn in the center of the park should have a 2% minimum and 2.5%
maximum slope.
2. There are utility conflicts in the proposed location for the courts to include two storm
lines and related structures. The applicant shall coordinate the location of these with the
City's parks department.

The proposed municipal water system expansion to serve the Mattamy Homes development is sufficient
and should be installed as recommended below. The Mattamy development is located west of I -35E
between Main Street and the extension of 77th Street E.
The Mattamy Homes development was modeled based on the addition of 871 new users. The model
determined watermain sizes and available fire flow. The Mattamy water system should include:
• 16" main routed through the development. Extended from south to north, and east to west
• 12" main to loop through the townhome area
• 8" lateral mains throughout
• Interconnect with the City of Centerville
The model shows that fire flow is sufficient for the single-family residential area of the development,
with calculated available fire -flow ranging from 1,450 to 3,100 gpm. The available fire flow for the
townhome area was 2,000 to 2,700 gpm. The developer has yet to determine the required fire flow
based on the size of the units and the materials to be used for construction. It should be verified that
this range of fire flows is sufficient to serve the townhome area.
The Model results conclude that the existing water system can adequately support the Mattamy homes
development. However, as there will be additional development elsewhere within the City, additional
supply and storage will be required. Options for increasing the City's water supply capacity include
constructing a new ground storage reservoir (GSR) and drilling an additional well. This is also outlined in
the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Detailed modeling results can be found in Appendix A of this
memorandum; system -wide development capacity can be found in Appendix B.

10 -State Standards recommend that the normal working pressure (average day) be approximately 60 psi with minimum
working pressures 35 psi.
Explanation
Two demand scenarios were evaluated:
1. The existing system with the Mattamy development; and
2. The existing system with the Mattamy development and additional development in the
northeast area of the City.
Demands were estimated using land -use data from the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
For each scenario, system additions were made. The system layouts evaluated were as follows:
1. No additions;
2. Adding Well 7 and a ground storage reservoir; and
3. Adding Well 7, a ground storage reservoir, and looping the system across1-35E.
Each scenario was modeled with the largest well out of service (firm capacity) as recommended by 10 -
State Standards. The model results show that the existing distribution system can support the Mattamy
Homes area, but that additional infrastructure will be required as development occurs within the City.

APPENDIX B — CITY OF LINO LAKES PRODUCTION AND STORAGE EVALUATION
Design Requirements
The City is served by five production wells, with a sixth well currently in production. It is recommended
that the capacity of the production wells with the largest well out of service be equal to or greater than
the maximum day demand. The City also has two elevated storage tanks. Storage tank capacity should
be equal to the average day demand plus an additional volume for firefighting.
Existing System
Production
The City currently utilizes wells to withdraw ground water for water supply purposes. Ten States
Standards recommends that maximum day water demand is accommodated with the largest well pump
out of service (designated as firm capacity). The City currently has five production wells, with Well No. 6
in construction. It is recommended that wells be able to supply the peak day demand at firm capacity.
The City's peak day demand from 2013 to 2015 was, on average, 2,750 gallons per minute (3.9 MGD). A
summary of the production capacity is shown in Table 1.

Storage
The City of Lino Lakes currently utilizes elevated water towers for water storage. There are a number of
published design recommendations for water storage. The American Water Works Association
recommends that system storage equal the average day demand with a "reasonable" fire -fighting
reserve. The fire -fighting reserve varies from city to city. For this report, it was assumed that the City
should be able to supply 1,750 gpm for 3 hours. This is consistent with ISO's recommendation for a
system serving primarily built-up residential to light commercial. From 2011 to 2015, the City's average
day demand was 1.39 MG. Table 2 outlines the City's storage capacity.

Water Demand
To determine the system's ability to support development, average day water demand, maximum day
water demand, and water -use patterns were considered. The total annual pumping was divided by the
number of residential connections to estimate the per unit demand on an average day. A similar
calculation evaluated the per unit demand on the maximum day. The City's average day demand from
2013 to 2015 was 303 gallons per unit, and the maximum day demand was 911 gallons per unit. These
values are used to estimate the capacity for development.
Development Capacity
To determine how many additional units can be supported on the existing system, both water storage
and supply were considered. Results show that with the addition of Well No. 6, the water supply will be
sufficient for approximately 1,650 average -use homes after Mattamy is connected, while water storage
should be upgraded upon the addition of 104 average -use homes. Therefore, water storage will be the
limiting factor in terms of development. Table 3 summarizes the predicted capacity after the Mattamy
development is fully connected.

AGENDA ITEM 6D
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Aubrey Fonfara, Recycling Assistant
MEETING DATE: April 27, 2016
TOPIC: Organics Recycling Update
BACKGROUND
Information about the Organics Recycling Drop-off Program was included in the annual
recycling flyer and mailed to all residents the week of April 1 lth. As of April 22nd, 47
households have registered. Attached is a map showing location of households that have
signed -up.
The Quad Community Press will be publishing an article about the Lino Lakes and
Anoka County organics recycling programs. Both programs were promoted at the Wargo
Nature Center Earth Day Celebration, and residents will be able to sign-up for the Lino
Lakes program at the Spring Recycling day.
Staff are still seeking volunteers to help monitor the organics collection sites for the first
month of the program. Sites are open during the month of May on Wednesday from 4-
7:00 PM and Saturdays from 11:00 AM -2:00 PM. Staff requests Environmental Board
members review the monitoring schedule and volunteer if they are able.
