6. DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. Development Regulations Task Force Update
FEBRUARY 27, 2002
Chair Kukonen recapped the meeting for the Board. He stated that the task force
reviewed the background including by -laws and policies, and tried to answer the question,
"What constitutes a premature subdivision?" A plat could be denied if it was considered
premature. He explained they had not seen the final draft of the document, but roads
could be moved to a lower class if development occurred in some areas. Other factors
affecting roads were traffic, water supply and waste disposals. Final plat growth would
be controlled by MUSA allocation.
Asleson stated that people were working together, and the meeting was productive.
Donlin agreed. She was encouraged that the issues were in manageable parts, and that
there would be no leapfrogging of MUSA.
Asleson indicated that Grochala had done a good job.
B. Goals /2003
Asleson distributed copies of the goals for 1998, and referred to the goals from 2002
which were in the packets. Since the 2002 budget had been fixed, Grochala
recommended the Board work on setting 2003 goals. Reviewing the previous goals,
many had grown more detailed, or had already been accomplished. He explained that
some of the recommendations the Board had put forth had set the stage for activities.
Chair Kukonen stated that the Board members should bring in ideas for the 2003 goals
next month. He indicated that several of the duties in the job description could be made
into goals.
Asleson pointed out hat a website had been established with a link to the Bell Museum,
and could be added to in the future. O'Connell noted that Earth Day would be an
opportunity to add to the website concerning Earth Day activities.
Donlin suggested some of the new information resulting from the Urban Interface could
be identified. Asleson mentioned that some interesting activities had begun in some
neighborhoods.
Chair Kukonen continued to review the 2002 goals, and commented that for #5 the Board
had been weak on collaborating with other similar boards.

DRAFT MINUTES
ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 27, 2002
O'Dea asked for a listing of analogous bodies in the Twin Cities area. Asleson indicated
he would raise the issue at a conference he would soon be attending. Concerning getting
help, Asleson recently went to a job fair, and stated there might be a possibility for
sharing an intern.
Chair Kukonen stated the first joint meeting with Council took place in October. The
Board acknowledged Councilperson Carlson's presence.
Chair Kukonen noted that #9 had been accomplished. An environmental landscaping
packet was developed. Asleson indicated that some of the information could be put on
the link with the Bell Museum.
Donlin inquired about the webmaster. Asleson answered the webmaster was Dan Tesch.
C. Earth Day /Arbor Day
Asleson sent out a letter concerning Earth Day. He reported that he received a response
from Ray Herman, the osprey person, and there is an individual who has carrier pigeon.
Wargo now had the food permit, and would be getting it to O'Connell. In the past, Ms.
Bowman had been organizing the volunteers. Jane Luntz was willing to do it this year,
but did not have good means of communication. The contact for volunteers would need
to take names, send out information, and organize logistics. Anyone with ideas should
contact him.
Chair Kukonen asked about waiver forms. Asleson responded if the volunteers got hurt,
the City wouldn't be liable. Activities worth noting were the City looking cleaner, and
that someone had donated wood duck houses and would be putting them up. In addition,
kids from a nearby school were putting seed packets together with native grasses that
would cover a 3 -foot square area. The Environmental Board could promote it and Anoka
County was putting together a touch and feel exhibit.
Donlin stated that a follow -up contest in the upcoming years could give impetus for
cultivating the seeds and encouraging sound management. Grundhofer suggested people
receiving a seed packet could sign a guest book.
O'Dea inquired about the location and time of the celebration. Asleson responded it
started at 8 a.m. at Wargo. He added that Scott Mars was planning to come.
O'Connell asked about the critters, if they were to be at the celebration. Asleson
answered that he left a message, but would be following -up on it.
Grundhofer stated she called Data Resources with the DNR endangered and threatened
species, but she needed detailed information. Asleson stated he could get the needed
information, and added that a map could be made.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 27, 2002
Donlin stated she was going to clean her 3 miles of ditches, in the past she had not asked
for help because the roads were busy and the work was dangerous. Asleson indicated that
Ace had said that they would help clean up ditches along the roads on certain days.
O'Dea inquired about homeowner projects. She suggested contacting the crime watch
groups to open up possibilities right outside their doors.
Asleson mentioned one year, with the Adopt -A- Highway program, it was sleeting and
people had done a great job. The group included Margaret Langfeld and they were
standing by the fire station on Civic and Lake Drive, when a truck went by releasing
papers all the way down Lake Drive. He noted that May 5, 2002 is Arbor Day and there
would again be a celebration at the Elementary School. It was important for the next
generation and to keep the Tree City USA status.
Chair Kukonen called for ideas for Earth Day, and stated the starter kits should be
included. Asleson stated he would check with the crime watch groups.
Chair Kukonen indicated he would contact the National Wildlife Federation, and the
Quad on the backyard wildlife information.
Donlin inquired about the heron exhibit, and if it should include the remains of the chicks
that were abandoned. She stated that Mr. Lanyon had them. Asleson noted he was going
to call Mr. Lanyon concerning an Egret mound.
O'Connell stated she would be in International Falls on March 12, 2002.
City News Letter — Chair Kukonen suggested the Board become a regular contributor,
and thanked staff for providing the schedule of deadlines for submission in the packet.
Donlin suggested the recreation section be reduced. Asleson responded that they needed
to promote their programs.
Chair Kukonen stated that he had information on septic system care and recycling which
might be of interest.
Donlin indicated a background on the heron colony rookery could raise public awareness.
Asleson mentioned a statement, like washing the car on a grassy area instead of the
driveway would reduce pollution, could make an impact.
D. Environmental Board Ordinance and Job Description
Asleson stated he wanted to meet with the new members and give them background
information.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 27, 2002
7. DEPARTMENT REPORTS
A. Forestry
Asleson stated that forestry was a separate section from environmental because they had
separate budgets. Ms. Smith with the Trade -A -Tree program had submitted a news
release to the Quad. In addition, Xcel Energy was already beginning to top the trees, but
Ms. Smith had contacted Xcel Energy and stopped them until the program could contact
the affected homeowners. Some of the extra trees could be used to spruce up the
elementary school. The program was entirely volunteer.
The oak wilt contracts budget had come in. They did not get the plow in the fall, so it
would be done in the spring.
B. Solid Waste Recycling
Asleson distributed the final SCORE recycling report, which included the oil and filter
recycling at the maintenance building. He indicated that the costs had increased, and the
only funding came from tonnages, and not for the actual recycling costs. The goal was to
break even, and to reduce the overhead to reduce the necessary SCORE funding. The
issue of battery recycling was mentioned. Finally, staff stated that the County -wide
tonnage requirements were exceeded.
Asleson suggested a program called Trish and the Tunes which is a recycling program for
children using puppets. He suggested that the program could be presented for one of the
elementary schools.
Donlin stated that if people did not have a place to put their waste it would go in the
ditches. Asleson explained he believed that much of the waste in the ditches comes from
outside the City. May 5 would be the next Recycling Day. On the last Recycling Day,
the City and residents filled three 4 -yard dumpsters with steel. The electronics industry
was beginning to offer recycling services. They would probably add to the cost of the
products, and offer the recycling for free.
Asleson stated he would be interested in bringing the recycling program Trish and the
Tunes to Rice Lake Elementary because one of the teachers was environmentally aware,
and even won the National Teacher of the Year.
O'Connell indicated teachers who might not be environmentally conscious might benefit
from having the program in their school. Donlin responded it depended on the teachers,
since some use a program and springboard off of it, while others use the time for other
pursuits and do not even hold a follow -up discussion about the presentation. She
suggested Lino Lakes Elementary as a possibility.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING FEBRUARY 27, 2002
Grundhofer stated that they have an Arbor Day celebration.
C. Environmental
Asleson began with update on Clearwater Creek and referred to the map, pointing out
the goal for what was once called Wetland Q was to restore it to what was natural in the
early 1900's. Box elder trees have entered the area since it had been cleared. Staff
informed the engineers working for the developer that the box elder trees would die, and
that the residents would lament the removal of the trees unless the developer explained
the plan. The homeowners did not receive a notice before the trees were removed, and
were angry. There were some invasive species in the development, and he suggested that
some of the money for restoration could be shifted. One species that could survive was
the woody white swamp oak. A meeting was scheduled that could fund a seeder. The
neighborhood meeting needed to be in the spring. Asleson stated he had been encouraged
that the developer has had burns and seedlings. Asleson stated they have followed
through with the plan, and this was an area where good things were happening.
Donlin pointed out that in another area of the site, there was no buffer between the
development and the industrial park. Asleson stated some things were taking place that
were encouraging, but take a while to become established. He mentioned that he was
now seeing songbirds returning to City Hall.
Asleson noted the greenway grant, which was applied for by the City and the Watershed
District, had been approved in the Minnesota Land Classification System.
Asleson addressed the blue heron population, and stated that the process was called by
some as misguided, unsubstantiated, and secretive. The one piece that had not been
observed was the direct effect of water skiing on a course and its effects. The timeline for
the joint ordinance was fast. The State and the County had tried to meet with the skiers,
but the skiers had cancelled, and another meeting could not be scheduled. Any factor
could have caused the herons to leave. It is difficult to prove causal effect in biology, so
professional judgment needed to be made. Phosphorus testing could take place if the
skiers did not ski north of the island during nesting season, and if they indicated when
they were going to ski so that testing could be done before and after. Many had tried to
find out the reason for the herons' departure.
Donlin pointed out that the DNR had invited the skiers to every meeting, and tried to
make sure they werz not excluded. It cannot be proven that it was the course, and so
there would probably be threats.
Asleson explained that with an increase in population, there is an increase in use. There
were State laws on fairness of use, but it was left to the governing bodies to decide what
was fair. Asleson stated that he had lived in the City for about 20 years and had never
observed anyone skiing north of the island, which was a change that had taken place in
the last 2 years. It appeared to staff that there was no more peaceful co- existence with the

birds or between the people. He urged that the debate needed to be from an
environmental standpoint, and not an emotional one.
Grundhofer stated the birds chose to live on islands, and not on the shorelines which had
been their traditional habitats. Asleson indicated that there was the cultural aspect of the
issue which was the idea the person had in their mind when they moved to the area.
Donlin stated she was afraid for her father's safety. He was to begin monitoring the area
in conjunction with the DNR, and she believed there was risk.
Chair Kukonen indicated that Centerville was still supporting a joint ordinance. Asleson
concurred, and continued that the City of Centerville was going to send out information to
all the people in the City.
Donlin mentioned that the new elementary school was to be named Blue Heron
Elementary, and we do not want to lose the resource so that it would be the Late Great
Blue Heron Elementary. The Blue Heron was the City's one identity. Asleson agreed,
and pointed out that Mr. Lanyon had stated that we have one or two more chances to save
the habitat.
Donlin stated that the area should not be disturbed.
Asleson noted that lakes were all unique, and in most cases a model is developed through
time. In order to develop a model, the ski club would need to cooperate. This item
would be on the work session next Wednesday.
Donlin asked if it would be a work session or a public hearing. Grundhofer answered the
work session for Lino Lakes would be on March 6, 2002, with the first public hearing on
March 11, 2002, and the second on March 25, 2002. Centerville would be having their
first public hearing on March 13, 2002, and the second public hearing on March 27, 2002.
Asleson noted all that could be done was to get the correct information out to the public.
O'Connell inquired about the developer trying to develop the island. Asleson responded
that there was a meeting of the Environmental Quality Board where a petition was
received. They have addressed all the recommendations from the Environmental Board.
Staff had met with the Watershed District and now they were in the public education
process.
O'Connell asked if there were the same number of homes. Ms. Carlson answered that
there was an eighth house on the cul -de -sac.
Asleson explained that they have complied with owner's covenants and the recommended
non - disturbance areas.

Grundhofer inquireit if people would show up for the two meetings about the blue heron
rookery. Ms. Carlsdn responded that they would.
8. ADJOURN
It was noted that the next meeting of the Environmental Board will be on March 27,
2002.
There being no further business, Donlin moved to adjourn at 8:30 p.m. O'Connell
seconded the motion. Motion passed unanimously.

Agenda Item 5A
Environmental Board Meeting Date: March 27, 2002
Topic: Stoneybrook/Preliminary Plat/Site Plan Review
Background: Stoneybrook is a 78 Acre Parcel of Land located on the
South side of Birch Street, just West of Centerville Road. Figure 1. This property
is guided for low- density sewered residential development in the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and planned as a future growth area. The developer is
requesting MUSA allocation, and formal rezoning of the property from R -Rural to
R -1 x -Low Density Residential. The developer requests approval for a 111 -lot
subdivision. Preliminary Plat information is included as Figure 2.
The site contains approximately 19.2 acres of wetland, and 58.87 acres of
upland. Of these 19.2 acres of wetland, 2.06 acres will require mitigation. The
developer proposes to accomplish this on site.
Analysis: This is a very wet site. Although soils on this site for the
most part have moderate filtration capacity, a good amount of them are hydric,
water saturated, in spite of historic artificial drainage. Figure 5 and 6. Because
of this saturated nature of the soils, infiltration techniques are limiting. Attention
can be given to water quality design. Water basin areas should be protected
from compaction and planted with a buffer of native plants. Basin filtration
capacities could be enhanced with organic bed establishment in flow areas.
Most of the site surface water is in the Rice Creek Watershed District and
travels to Wards/Reshaneau Lakes. A small portion of the Preliminary Plat on
the South Comer is in the Vadnais Lake Water Management Area. Figure 7.
Stoneybrook soils for the most part are glacial till, yellow brown, and
oxidized. Oxidized means the soils have been water saturated. The soils are
also very insensitive to ground water pollution, except for a small section on the
South East comer that is in the Vadnais Lake Area Watershed District. Figure 8.
Soil compaction is problem on all construction sites. Maintaining natural surface
and ground water is important and though these soils are saturated, care must
be given to minimize additional water volume discharges. Yard areas where
possible, and wetland areas, natural or created, should be protected from
construction traffic and fenced off.
A sequencing plan and management plan should be submitted. The
management plan should include a 3 -year contract with a landscape company
knowledgeable and experienced in native vegetation management. Seed mixes
should be consistent with the City of Lino Lakes seed mixtures. Escrow dollars
should be received ensuring native mix and maintenance compliance. No soils
should be hauled off the site or brought on to the site with out permission from
the City of Lino Lakes. All soils if brought in must be consistent with existing
soils. Management plan should specifically state the preexisting soil conditions,
and address a plan for no- change, or restoration. Escrow dollars should be
allocated for restoration.
There are a number of oak trees on the South side of the development
and one on the North. There would be no tree Toss as a result of this project.
Although a fence area is shown around the tree areas on the site, a more
detailed description of tree preservation should be submitted. This could be part
of the sequencing plan and should state no traffic, or material stockpiling in these
areas, and avoidance of utility installation in these areas. Fences must be placed
at a distance from the trees equal to one -foot radius for each inch of tree trunk
diameter measured at 4.5 feet above the ground. All in these areas and fencing
should be up before soil disturbance and remain in place throughout the
construction process.
Sequencing should also define an area for construction and concrete truck
cleanup, and define responsibility for clean up after the last house is completed.
The plan should also state specifically a time when all silt and tree preservation,
and soil preservation fence will be removed. Escrow dollars should be received
for assurance.
A cattail marsh encroaches from the west on the North West Side of the
development. This cattail marsh is surrounded by a Historic Oak Savanna to the
North/West/South, but only abuts up to the East property line of the proposed
plat. To the West of the Oak Savanna is a Shrub thicket area, mixed into an area
that is typical of the fen area (although this one is highly disturbed with mostly
reed canary grass) to the North of Lino Lakes Elementary. There should be care
taken to ensure that no changes to the surface or ground water occurs in the
area to the west of Stoneybrook. The oak savanna may be impacted by such
changes and there may be opportunity to restore the wetland areas in the future
if surface and ground water changes do not occur. Figure 3.
A Lake Protection Zone covers the SE comer of the property. This zone
surrounds Lake Amelia. A Zone -2 Protection Area is included in the marsh area
on the North and West Side of the property. This zone changes to Zone -1
immediately to the West. Figure 4. This area is the Eastern portion of the oak
savanna and wetland complex in Figure 3 /Figure 4. Buffering/and no changes
to ground water or surface water should be allowed in this area.
A landscape screening plan should be submitted for along Birch Street.
Plant materials should be sufficient to meet P&Z standards, be native, planting
zone 3 hardiness, meet American Nurseryman Standards, have a one -year
guarantee, and be site suitable. City Staff must approve a plan. Escrow dollars
should be acquired for assurance.
This proposed plat is presently under review with the Rice Creek
Watershed District. A suggestion has been made to the developer to inform the
Vadnais Lake Watershed District of the small area involved in their District on the
South side of the property.
The only "greenway" consideration in this area is confined to more of a
trail/connection area that has been proposed on the Waterworks Pipeline
easement on the Eastem Edge of the property.
Options:
1. Approve with above stated recommendations.
2. Recommend denial of Preliminary Plat

Memo

To: Lino Lakes Environmental Board
From: Marty Asleson
Date: March 2002
Re: Agenda Item Goals
Last month Environmental Board Chair Rod Kukonen suggested Environmental
Board members review past goals before the March meeting. Rod requested that
Board Members generate a list of suggestions for goals 2003. I would make a
suggestion that any goals that involve the use of funds; the Environmental Board
recommends a dollar figure for budget setting. Funding requests might be in the
areas of environmental education, promotional, conference, and physical
improvements (ex Restoration), or staffing.
Please bring your thoughts and recommendations to the meeting.
