AGENDA ITEM 5A
Marty Asleson, Environmental Coordinator
January 25, 2017
Environmental Review for Preliminary Plat,
Rezoning and Comprehensive Plan Amendment for
Erickson Estates.
Joan and Dave Erickson
63 White Pine Road
Lino Lakes, MN. 55014
OWNER: Same as Applicant
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Since this project was submitted late for Inclusion into last month's Environmental Board
meeting, the plan went to P and Z before Environmental Board. The following staff
report consolidates some of the information that went to P and Z.
The applicant has submitted a land use application for Comprehensive Plan Amendment,
Rezoning and Preliminary Plat. The proposed development is a 2 lot single family
Residential subdivision located at the northwest quadrant of White Pine Road and
Baldwin Lake Road. The development contains one 4.38 gross acre parcel and is called
Erickson Estates. The Utility Staging Map would also have to be changed from Stage 3
(Post 2030) to Stage 1, A (2008-2015).
The proposal is a Comprehensive Plan Amendment because The City will need to amend
the Future Land Use Map from Urban Reserve to Low Density Residential. The proposal
is a rezoning because the land would need to be changed from R, Rural to R -1X, and
Single Family Executive.
The project engineer submitted:
• Preliminary Plat and Civil Plan Set prepared by Loucks, Inc. dated December 8,
2016
• Subsurface Geotechnical Assessment prepared by MTM Environmental, Inc.
Dated August 26, 2016
• Wetland Delineation Report prepared by Kjolhaug Environmental Services
1
Company, Inc. dated September 30, 2016
• Comprehensive Amendment Form Submitted by Loucks with 2030 Future Land
Use Map and 2030 Future Build Out Map
ANALYSIS
The 4 acre site is contains one single family home, wetlands, pond, mowed grassland and
Tree -coverage. The house is connected to public water and sanitary sewer. The
Preliminary plat indicates Isanti sandy loams, peat and Zimmerman soils. Per the
Subsurface Geotechnical Assessment, groundwater was not encountered in the boreholes.
Minor construction limitations include the presence of topsoil that will need to be cut and
filled. The Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve abuts the property to the
North.
With regards to the Comprehensive Plan, Erickson Estates is consistent with the goals
and policies of the comprehensive plan, resource management, land use, housing,
transportation and utilities.
Resource Management System Plan
The Resource Management System Plan provides the conservation design framework for
the Comprehensive Plan and promotes sustainable decisions regarding growth and
development. It provides a unified system approach to natural resource management and
natural resource based amenities.
Goals of the Resource Management System Plan include:
• Parks, Trails, Open Space and Recreation
Goal #3: Develop, maintain, and connect the current and proposed trails in
the City of Lino Lakes and Rice Creek Regional Park in a manner that
preserves and sustains the natural environment.
• Natural Resources and Amenities
Goal #1: Identify, protect and preserve the desirable natural areas and
ecological and aquatic resources of the community.
• Land Use Policies
Goal #1: Ensure that well-planned, quality residential, commercial,
industrial and institutional development to accommodate the city's
projected growth needs occurs in a manner that also conserves and
enhances the city's natural resources and amenities.
The Resource Management System Plan identifies the following in the area:
• Proposed trail
• Greenway system connectivity
A future trail north -south through the Regional Park is indicated on the future park plan
and Resource Management Plan. Erickson Estates does not negatively impact these
plans.
The greenway corridor extends into the north portion of the parcel incorporating the
2
wetland and floodplain areas. This corridor will be preserved with a conservation
easement.
Density and Land Area Calculations
The following chart implements Met Council's formula for calculating net density:
Gross Area Acres 4.38
Wetland and Water Bodies 0.46
Public Parks and Open Space 0.00
Wetland Buffer Conservation Easement TBD
Net Area TBD
Number of Units 2
Gross Density (units/Acre) 0.46
Net Density TBD
Comments: The area of the wetland buffer conservation easement shall be provided.
Storm Water Management and Erosion and Sediment Control
Per the submitted Grading, Drainage & Utility Plan Sheet 2, drainage appears to occur on
site. No stormwater management facilities are proposed. The City Engineer will review
and comment on plan.
Tree Preservation
The goal of tree preservation is to minimize unnecessary loss of habitat, biodiversity and
forest resource and to replace removed trees in areas where tree cover is most critical.
The Grading, Drainage & Utility Plan, Sheet 2 identifies the basic use area (BUA), tree
protection area and tree removal. The BUA is not located within any environmentally
sensitive areas (ESA). Currently, there are 16 trees proposed for removal. Since these
trees are located within the BUA and are outside of the ESA, no tree mitigation is
required.
Landscaping
No boulevard trees or open space landscaping are required
Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW)
An Environmental Assessment Worksheet is not mandated. The 2 unattached residential
units are under the 250 unattached unit thresholds.

Wetlands
A Wetland Delineation Report was prepared by Kjolhaug Environmental Services
Company, Inc. on September 20, 2016. A WCA Notice of Decision for Application
Number 16-121R was issued by RCWD on October 4, 2016.
According to the report, two (2) wetlands were identified on the subject site. Per the
preliminary plat, the total combined wetland area is 0.21 acres.
The site is located within in the RCWD Wetland Management Corridor (WMC). Because
of this location a conservation easement covering an average 50 foot wide wetland buffer
is required along the north wetland.
Shoreland Management Overlay
The site is located in a Shoreland Management Overlay district. Baldwin Lake is a
classified as a Recreational Lake and has an 883.1 OWHL elevation. A setback of 150
feet from the OHWL is required for all primary and accessory structures. Impervious
surface coverage of 30% applies to all lots within the overlay district.
The 150 foot setback from the OHWL does not encroach onto Lot 1 or Lot 2 of the
proposed development so is not an issue. Impervious surface coverage will be reviewed
with the building permit but given the large size parcels, impervious coverage should not
be an issue.
Comprehensive Plan Amendment
The proposed, master planned project must provide discernable public values:
Per the Comprehensive Plan, Goal #1, Policy #5 of the Land Use Plan defines the
following discernable public values:
i. Preserving open space, providing park dedication and trails, and/or providing
stormwater management areas, in excess of minimum standards to implement
the Resource Management System Plan, as amended, and Rice Creek
Watershed District's Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan, as amended
ii. Restoring/enhancing ecological systems
iii. Providing infrastructure that benefits community beyond the project site that
would otherwise not be financially feasible.
Erickson Estates will preserve open space and enhance the ecological system by
dedicating a conservation easement over the wetland management/greenway corridor.
Park dedication fees will be collected. Right-of-way will be platted and drainage and
utility easements will be dedicated to preserve a corridor to extend public utilities in
upon future development.

Preliminary Plat Documents Submitted for Erickson's Estates provided by Loucks
and Associates, with Comments from City Engineer:
GRADING, EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
Information taken from City Engineer Report:
1. The applicant shall provide the area of disturbance and the area of hard cover (e.g.
impervious area) on the preliminary plat; and provide a SWPPP if required.
2. Normal and high water level elevations should be shown on sheet 1.
3. The drainage from lot 2 may not run off onto adjacent property (east side). A side yard
swale or other drainage feature will be required; this may result in the need for a retaining
wall.
4. Drainage arrows shall be included on the grading plan.
City code requires a base level sediment and Erosion Control Plan
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
1. The plat is over an acre of land thus, the applicant shall provide an analysis
demonstrating the stormwater runoff rates pre and post development. If the post
development rate exceeds the pre development rate then rate control needs to be provided
on the site. The applicant shall work with Rice Creek Watershed District for permit
requirments.
2. The project is exempt from providing water quality treatment under RCWD Rule C.6.
This is because the project has less than 1 acre of land disturbance.
FLOODPLAIN
1. There is floodplain on the existing and proposed lot.
WETLANDS
Rice Creek Watershed District is the LGU to review and approve the wetland delineation.
Thus we have not reviewed for the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA).
1. Provided the LGU approves the wetland delineation, there are no proposed wetland
impacts. Therefore, no wetland mitigation approval is needed.
2. RCWD will require the wetlands be within conservation easements, and this shall be
included on the final plat. I discussed this with our Engineer and am checking with
RCWD to confirm this , or it's possible the southern wetland does not fall into this
requirement.
5
RARE AND UNIQUE FEATURES
There are no rare and/or unique feature records on this site. There are no indicators that
we would be concerned with ENR on this site.
Drinking Water Service Management Areas
There are no DWSMA Vulnerability Concerns
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the recommendations of staff and Environmental Board in this report and pass
on to the City Council for their consideration.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD
AGENDA ITEM 6A
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Marty Asleson, Environmental Coordinator
MEETING DATE: January 25, 2017
TOPIC: Environmental Board Goals 2016/2017
BACKGROUND
2016 Environmental Board Goals were discussed at the November 30, 2016 meeting.
The Following statements have included the suggestions proposed at the meeting:
1. Promote Environmental Stewardship with the citizens of Lino Lakes, and
conservation opportunities by communicating environmental initiatives in the city
using various means of communication such as:
• Mailings.
• Multi -media including social media such as Facebook and possibly
Twitter. Double the followers on Facebook.
• School "enviro- shows", promotion in schools.
• Partnerships with our two watershed districts.
•
•
2. Promote Lino Lakes Environmental Issues to the Public by:
• Participate in Earth Day (Date)
• Participate in Blue Heron Days (Date)
• Partner with Anoka County Recycling Resource Solutions.
1. Utilize County Select Committee on Recycling (SCORE) and
Local Recycling Development Grant (LRDG) Funds to the
maximum extent possible to increase our recycling totals.
2. Work with local participating businesses on mandated business
recycling through Anoka County and "Waste -Wise" staff.
3. Partner with our neighborhood groups to educate and start pilot
projects to recycle organics.
4. Increase our volunteer base in recycling
5. Increase services available to residents at the monthly Recycling
Day event including additional paper shredding, events, hard drive
1
destruction and the "Bridging Program" and or other charity
organizations.
6. To meet or exceed our City recycling goal of 50 (1836 tons)
percent or greater of our municipal solid waste.
7. Find innovative ways to promote and encourage recycling as a
city.
8. Continue to look into ways for school facilities to reduce waste
and increase recycling, and continue to enhance recycling efforts
through grants from Anoka County Integrated Waste. (Changed
Format).
9. Continue to promote organic recycling and investigate
methods to make organic recycling all-inclusive to residents
3. Cooperate with Rice Creek Watershed District and Vadnais Lakes Area Water
Management Organization, and city staff to promote development that renews,
preserves, and restores surface water, lakes, stream and wetlands through project
review processes and public education.
4. Monitor any activity in the AUAR as well as other proposed development areas,
focusing on the values that citizens of Lino Lakes have expressed in the 20/30
vision for our city and the unique ecological aspects of our wetlands, lakes and
streams and subsurface waters, vegetation and wildlife populations.
5. Perform evaluation of past Environmental Board recommendations for
development projects. Review a sampling of a variety of projects by on-site
visits, discussion with city staff, and landowners, neighbors, on the outcomes of
the board's recommendations. If necessary, submit a summary of significant
findings resulting from the review in writing to the Community Development
Director.
6. Support Conservation Development within the city through site review processes
by incorporating The Resources Management System Plan components of the
City Comprehensive Plan. The use of the planning documents within the
Comprehensive Plan that enable Conservation Development include:
• The Lino Lakes Handbook For Environmental Planning and
Conservation Development,
• The Minnesota Land Cover Classification System and Natural
Resource Inventory for Lino Lakes
• The Minnesota County Biologic Survey
• The Lino Lakes Assessment of Existing Ecological Conditions and
Management Opportunities
• The Lino Lakes Handbook For Environmental Planning and
Conservation Development
2
• The Minnesota DNR Regionally Significant Ecological Areas
Assessment, Rare Wildlife and Plant Models built by the City
• The Lino Lakes Parks, Natural Open Space/Greenways, and Trails
System Plan,
• The I -35E Corridor Alternative Urban Area -wide Review (AUAR)
assessment
• The Rice Creek Watershed District/Lino Lakes Resources
Management Plan
• The Assessment of Development, Suitability and Natural Resources
Conservation Opportunities study,
• The City of Lino Lakes Local Surface Water Management Plan
7. Support the Community Garden site and continue the partnership with Park
Department to manage the Community Garden site, adapt gardens to site land
sale.
8. Do an annual review/update in regards to the Lino Lakes EAB Implementation
Plan. Offer residents opportunities for tree purchasing and possibly tree
treatment. Obtain interns and train them in Ash Tree Treatment. Start treating a
third of our City boulevard trees.
9. Continue to work on Wollan's Park Wetland bank to achieve wetland bank credits
by the end of the year 2019 and investigate new banking opportunities. Help to
establish a city wide process to fund wetland banking. (I added this for your
consideration).
10. Continue to monitor the Heron rookery and water quality in the northern one third
of Peltier Lake and to support the protection of resources in that area. Update
Council on these matters. Recruit new volunteers to help with rookery
maintenance and monitoring.
11. Support Stormwater efforts of our engineering department in Community
Development to develop a NPDES next phase inventory of our ponds and support
adequate funding for needed maintenance efforts, and in emergency situations and
regular maintenance of drainage areas.
12. Support the maintenance of established conservation easement areas where
funding is available. (I added this for your consideration)

Memo

Re: Community Garden Plot Impacts
Please see the attached map showing the garden plots that will be lost
because of the American Legion parking lot construction. The drawing on the map is
not the final submittal and could very well look different if surface water design is
moved around. The Environmental Board will have a chance to review the
preliminary plan probably next month.
The Legion does own the entire lot where construction is shown and we would lose
about 20 garden plots. We can discuss mitigating the loss at the meeting
