5. ACTION ITEMS
A. JADT/Lino Lakes Commercial Center /Sheet Metal Workers
Preliminary Plat Site Plan Review
Asleson reviewed the background and analysis, and distributed a map of a
segment of the Tree Preservation Plan.
O'Dea inquired if the recommendation of no importing or exporting soils would
apply in this case. In addition, could the use of pervious parking where possible
also be recommended on the side of the buildings. Asleson responded that both
recommendations were good to add. The pervious parking could take the form of
Netlawn, a granular type, or pervious bituminous.
Bor questioned if snow removal had been addressed. Sean Bergoine of HTG
indicated that the snow could be carted off, or possibly a communal response
could be coordinated with Target and Kohl's.
Asleson stated that timely sweeping and general maintenance were necessary, and
commented that hazardous materials needed to be properly stored.
Grundhofer mentioned the possibility of saving some oaks if five parking spaces
were removed from the plan and noted its location. Mr. Bergoine responded that
they tried to save them, but found it impossible because they were only allowed
one curve outlet near McDonald's. They had recently submitted a revised
Landscape Plan, and had conformed to all the recommendations made in 2003.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING OCTOBER 26, 2005
Asleson stated the revised Landscape Plan was so recent it did not make it into the
packet. He added that originally it was agreed that they would plant one tree for
each tree lost, they have now agreed to three trees planted for every tree lost.
Grundhofer inquired about trash collection. Would the trees nearby be impacted
by the trucks. Mr. Bergoine indicated they had planned for a three sided
enclosure, and were planning to carefully plant and trim the nearby trees to ensure
survival.
Asleson stated the developers should consult with their hauler to ensure the
recycling and trash enclosure was adequate and easy to use. Mr. Bergoine
indicated they had already submitted their plan and had begun the dialogue.
Grundhofer asked if the lighting went beyond the property line.
Chair O'Dea reviewed the recommendations of the Board:
• No importing or exporting of soils without City approval.
• The Sheet Metal Federal Credit Union has agreed to replace three oak trees
that need to be removed from the proposed island. Replace them on a 3:1
basis with trees of the City's choice and two inches or larger in diameter.
• Reduce perking to the minimum, if possible.
• Use pervious pavement, if possible.
• Identify snow removal of impervious surfaces.
Grundhofer made a motion to recommend approval with the above
recommendations from the Board and staff recommendations. Bauman seconded
the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
B. The Village No. 3/YMCA/Preliminary Site Plan Review
Asleson reviewed the background and analysis. He indicated he should have
included the recommendation of "No importing or exporting soils without City
approval." He noted it had been surveyed. Since the survey, the storm had taken
some additional trees down that should be noted and removed.
Chair O'Dea expressed concern about the number of parking spaces. Asleson
responded that the Board could recommend that they use pervious pavement
where possible.
Chair O'Dea inquired if more windows could be put in on the South and
Southeast side of the building because the view was so beautiful. Asleson said it
was a good recommendation, but they had been working on it for years, and were
firm in their plans in several areas. The City encouraged them to use recessed
areas, but they declined.
3 DRAFT MINUTES
ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING OCTOBER 26, 2005
Chair O'Dea asked for clarification if the dashed lines were proposed
development. Bauman questioned if it was designated, so they would not put in
fields.
Asleson responded the proposed development was for playground equipment, but
no fields. If it did include fields, the plan would come back to the Board.
Grundhofer inquired if all the trees were removed from the site. Asleson noted
that not all the trees were gone.
Grundhofer questioned if the Board could request that they put in more trees.
Asleson answered the trail system was nice, and explained that portion of the
plan.
Grundhofer noted that the crab apple variety was non - bearing, but included
flowers. She asked for clarification if the islands in the parking lot were sodded,
and could they plant rain gardens in those areas. Asleson responded that rain
gardens could only be used in the depressional areas.
Bor made a motion to recommend approval including staff recommendations and
the recommendation of the Board:
• No importing or exporting of soils without City approval.
Bauman seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
6. DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. NPDES Education/Dawn Dubats/RCWD
This item was tabled to a future meeting of the Board.
B. Stoneybrook
Asleson noted it took two weeks to remove debris left in the conservation
easement. They wanted to disk cut the seeds into the soil, and not till it. The City
was obtaining the appropriate slopes for the ponds. Some signage was missing.
In the spring, they would go to the county to GPS the areas. A homeowner
association representative wanted the site completed before the association
assumed responsibility for the site.
Chair O'Dea inquired if signs the same size as the posts were adequate. Asleson
responded that it did make them non - intrusive. He was encouraged by several
calls of residents wanting to protect the buffer areas.

ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING OCTOBER 26, 2005
Bor questioned if a springtime visit would be helpful. Asleson agreed it would be
beneficial.
O'Dea inquired if additional buffering was necessary on Birch Street. Asleson
responded that he would check into it. He asked if there was still a pile of dirt.
Grundhofer noted it appeared that either some lots were still unsold, or wanted to
know if those areas were to be left open. Asleson was unsure.
Chair O'Dea expressed concern that a large shed might not be located on a
resident's property along Birch Street passed Sherman Lake. Bauman answered
that she believed it was on the resident's property, and commented on its size.
Asleson added that he would have Pete look at the shed, and would be monitoring
the flora in the Spring. He requested to see the tilling process in Stoneybrook. On
the City Hall site, he noticed the City seed mix was not being used. Instead, a
MNDOT mix was used. He corrected the mistake.
Chair O'Dea inquired if the Board should recommend follow -up with the City,
because construction debris might still remain.
Bor recommended inviting the homeowner's association representative to address
the Board from her perspective. Asleson agreed to invite her to an upcoming
meeting. He also stated that TKDA ran through a checklist. He wanted to
remember to recommend that there should be one place to dump and clean out the
trucks, and should be indicated on the plan. Staff noted that there had been
several phone calls complaining about the debris on site.
O'Dea indicated that she was interested in touring the Fox Borough site.
C. Quad Paper
Grundhofer looked for the advertisement in the paper for Recycling Day. She
called the Quad and they said it was on page 13B. She expressed concern that the
announcement was not visible enough, and recommending staff to request it to be
located on the border of the front page in the future.
D. Rud Building
Grundhofer stated visitors from New Ulm, originally from Lino Lakes, inquired
about the office building having lakefront disturbance.
5 DRAFT MINUTES
ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD MEETING OCTOBER 26, 2005
E. Water
Grundhofer mentioned that the City used Chlorine to keep its drinking water clean
and inquired if Hydrogen peroxide could be used. She was aware it costs more
than Chlorine, but discussed its benefits. Bor responded that she would
investigate the issue for its municipal functionality and the long -term effects on
pipes.
Chair O'Dea inquired if the report for Recycling Day was completed. Asleson
responded it was unfinished, and indicated that Recycling had always occurred on
the first Saturday in October and May. He noted that the Heron Task Force
would be meeting at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 27, 2005. He questioned
Bor if Ron was aware of the meeting.
Bor responded she was unsure if Ron was aware of the meeting. She indicated
that he was seeking permission to hunt raccoons. Asleson answered that there
might not be any birds returning.
Grundhofer questioned the number of Blue Herons and Egrets that had raised
young. Asleson responded that there were four Blue Herons, but no Egrets.
There were several eagle nests.
The Board took a brief recess at 7:55 p.m., and reconvened at 7:59 p.m.
Bor inquired the name of the developer. Asleson answered it was Tollefson
Development.
Grundhofer asked if it was their first time in Lino Lakes. Asleson indicated that
he believed it was their first site. He stated received a good price for 87 boulevard
trees. He was sending letters to residents who would receive trees.
Grundhofer questioned if the Trade -a -Tree program was still effective. Asleson
answered the cooperative program with Xcel was no longer available.
Chair O'Dea inquired if the AUAR was approved. Asleson responded it had been
approved, and wanted to know if anyone had seen the final document.
Grundhofer stated she had seen the AUAR document, and mentioned it had one
"no" vote.

7 DRAFT MINUTES
• Agenda Item 5A
Environmental Board Meeting Date: November 30 , 2005
Topic: Pomp's Tires/7385 Apollo Ct/Site Plan Review
Background: Pomp's Tires is located to the North of Summit Fire in the Apollo
Business Park. Please see Attachments 1 and 10. The General Site Plan for
this area was reviewed at the June 28, 2000 Environmental Board Meeting in
conjunction with Marmon Keystone. Pomp's Tires has CAPROC with the Rice
Creek Watershed District at this time based on the original design and permit for
this area.
The application shows this as a 30,870 square foot building with a maximum
height of 15 to 22 feet on 8.9 acres of land, with a proposed 5.9 acres (66 %)
impervious.
Analysis:
Significant Resource Considerations
II/ The MLCCS is mapped on Attachment 11 for the Pomp's Tire site. The MLCCS
shows much of the area as "Long grasses on upland soils." The NW corner
includes "Saturated non - native dominated vegetation, Aspen forest saturated,
and Cattail marsh." There are no National Heritage issues associated with this
site. This includes the City Blandings Turtle modal. There is no flood plain on
the site.
Landscape
There should be no exporting or importing of soils from this site without City
Approvals. Wetland soils should be stockpiled and used in the constructed
wetland and infiltration areas. All infiltration, management pond and surface
water swale areas should be planted with a City specified native seed mix (not
the MNDOT specification). A City approved contractor should be hired to install,
and maintain the native plant areas for a minimum of 3 to 5 years. Seed
verification should be made with the City Environmental Coordinator prior to
planting. All turf areas should be irrigated. All turf areas should have top soil
thoroughly tilled into the subsoil as deep as possible. This should be a check list
item that is inspected by environmental prior to sodding. There is no indication
on the plan as to what will be growing in the open area to the south. If this area
is going to be mowed like a sodded landscape is mowed, than it should be
shown as sod with irrigation. Otherwise this are should be seeded with the City
native upland seed mix and placed under a 3 -5 year initial start-up contract with
• an approved landscape company. This contract should include one burn at the
end of 3 years.
•
A berm area on the western side of the project is intended to screen the
residential area to the west. This berm should be irrigated, in order to support
plantings on the berm.
In the tree planting pallet, Green Mountain Sugar maples should be changed.
Red maple, Hackberry, Red or White /Burr oaks should be substituted for the
Green Mountain maples.
On the upland portions of the pond areas that are to be seeded with the City
native seed mix, the developer should plant tree species that would tolerate
native plant management. I would suggest changing the Niobe Weeping Willows
to Oak species.
Apollo Court should have boulevard trees planted every 50 feet. Suggest
planting oaks in this area.
In the foundation planting schedule, I would suggest changing the Dwarf Amur
maple to some native species that is not on the state invasive listing.
Tree Preservation
Although there are several stamped trees on the plan that appear to be
significant trees, there is no identifying codes as to what these trees are, or
whether they are intended to be removed or saved. If they are to be saved they
should be indicated as such on the plan and a detail on appropriate tree
protection measures shown. All tree protection measures must be implemented
prior to soil disturbance.
Lighting
The photometric plan shows the Tight "zeroing -out" at the property line.
Attachment 12 shows the submitted security -light fixtures. These do not appear
to meet the City standard.
Erosion Control
The erosion control plan must be on site. The developer should indicate the
place where the erosion control plan under an approved NPDES permit will be
found on site. All required weekly and post rainfall event inspection reports must
be located with the erosion control plan. The developer should indicate the site
NPDES site supervisor and contact number.
110 Rock entrances must be replaced or added to if rock pore spaces become filled.
Any area storm water catch basins must be protected with an approved sediment
containment device (no hay bales) such as the Royal Infrasafe debris collection
device.

Woodbury Environmental Education Commission
Environmental Education and environmental impacts related to development, planning
and ordinances are
managed by separate
• entities for the City.
Identify environmental issues, concerns, and subjects that will enhance citizen awareness
for good environmental practices. The Commission reports to the City Communication
Coordinator. Appointments to the Commission are for one year and can be renewed by
the City Council. Writes an article monthly for the local newspaper. Publishes a
researched subject in an educational format for the quarterly City Newsletter, examples
given were care of lawns, energy conservation. Information for residents that support
environmental, land use and nature preservation concepts is a joint venture of city staff
and the Commissioners.
Environmental Resource Coordinator manages the NPEDS system and provides the
required reporting to the PCA. Reports to the Environmental Planner. Works with the
Watershed Partners. Woodbury has three Watershed Districts in their City. Two of these
agencies do their own permitting while Woodbury does the south Washington district
Watershed permitting.
Environmental Review of proposed developments and land use in the City is managed
through the Environmental Planner. This position assists with the preliminary plat
approval process. The Environmental Planner is considered the negotiator with
developers to follow ordinances but also to incorporate best environmental practices with
their plans. The Environmental Planner reports to the City Engineer. All inspections for
the City are done by outside consultant inspectors. They are not staff of the City and the
Environmental Planner feels developers are held more accountable this way and the
inspector hired is an expert for the specific project and the vulnerable areas of the project.
The Environmental Planner feels that not too long ago, City Councils did not receive
much in terms of environmental guidance. The Commission and Planning departments
feel they do influence decisions made regarding projects but also are careful to honor
resident needs such as affordable housing. If too much of the City is dedicated to open
space then the cost of homes goes up farther. He feels that individual agencies look at
just that, individual issues, whereas the City and Environmental Staff need to provide a
balance with competing issues the City must consider with projects (roads, infrastructure,
water management and costs /tax impacts).
Residents are encouraged to keep their elected officials informed of their values and the
importance of factoring in environmental management with a rapidly growing city.

Wild lupine has key role
in saving endangered
Karner blue butterfly
Wild lupine, Lupinus perennis, is the only plant eaten by the
caterpillars of the endangered Kamer blue butterfly, Lycaeides melissa
samuelis. Efforts to preserve the Karner blue are underway in
Minnesota, which is at the western edge of the butterfly's traditional
range. Today it can be found in two valleys in the Whitewater Wildlife
Management Area near Winona. Until the early 1980s, a colony of
Kamer blues also existed alongside a gravel road in Cedar Creek
Natural History Area in Anoka County. Then the wild lupine was
scraped off by a grader during a road improvement project, and the
butterflies vanished.
The topside of the male Kamer blue is silvery or dark blue with
narrow black margins; the female's topside is grayish brown to blue,
with irregular bands of orange crescents inside the narrow black border.
They were named for the vanished upstate New York hamlet of Karner,
where millions of the butterflies once flocked. The inch -wide insects
were once plentiful in a narrow swath of oak savanna and pine barrens
in 12 states from Maine to Minnesota and in Canada. They are now
found in isolated pockets in seven states. Wisconsin is a leader in the
preservation efforts.
In Minnesota, current efforts to preserve the Kamer blue are focused
on restoring oak savannas that have open patches in tree canopies
and sandy soil where wild lupine thrives. Jaime Edwards, a nongame
wildlife specialist with the Minnesota DNR, has been working in the
Whitewater area for about five years, endeavoring to recreate the
habitat that Karner blues prefer. She said that Minnesota may have
started its conservation efforts too late. "We're really playing catch-
up to get the habitat in shape before we lose the butterfly," she said.
Minnesota preservation efforts began in the 1990s, when Cynthia
Lane studied the Karner blue for four years while pursuing a doctorate
in conservation biology at the University of Minnesota. She learned
the insect's life cycle, which includes two generations a year, and the
varied habitat of sun, partial shade
and dense shade that it requires.

available. The CDs are published by
Flora ID Northwest, LLC.
Both the Minnesota and Great
Plains Flora ID keys will be available
at MNPS regular monthly meetings
through Treasurer Ron Huber. Both
CDs are also available through the
mail, but add $2 each for shipping.
For mail order, contact Ron at
huber033 @umn.edu or

Winter botany field
trip is Nov. 12 at
Maplewood
by Ken Arndt
Join MNPS President Jason
Husveth and MNPS Board Member
Ken Arndt for a winter botany field
trip at the Maplewood Nature Center
Saturday, Nov. 12. We will be
leading a walk through the nature
center grounds to learn about the
many native wildflowers, grasses,
sedges, trees, and shrubs and will
focus on the winter aspects of
vegetation, natural communities, and
vegetation associations.
The field trip will start at 9 a.m.
and go until noon. We will meet
inside at the nature center, where we
will learn about the history of the
Maplewood Nature Center and
briefly talk about the ins and outs of
winter botany before we venture
outside.
Depending on the time and amount
of ground we cover at the nature
center, we may drive to Jim's Prairie,
which is located a short distance from
Maplewood Nature Center. Many
consider Jim's Prairie to be the finest
wet prairie in Ramsey County.
Although only five acres in size, it
has more than 150 different plants
throughout the preserve.
For sign -up information and
directions, go to our Web site at
www.mnnps.org or e-mail Jason at
president @mnnps.org to sign up in
advance. Space will be limited to 30
society members, so sign up today
to reserve your spot.

From the president
Welcome back to all of our
members to the beginning of another
membership year of the Minnesota
Native Plant Society. I am pleased
to report that we continue to grow in
membership and as an organization,
thanks to an active board of directors
and the contributions of our
membership.
What a fantastic summer it has
been to be a member of the
Minnesota Native Plant Society! Our
members really stepped up and
offered some exceptional
opportunities to visit natural
communities throughout the state.
On behalf of the society, we thank
Hannah Texler, Paul Bockenstedt
(MNPS) and the Iowa Native Plant
Society, Karen Schik, Barb Delaney,
and Ken Arndt for leading outings to
Minnesota's Scientific and Natural
Areas and destinations on the
Minnesota -Iowa border. Thanks to
Doug Mensing for his effective
service as field trip coordinator in
2005, and to Ken Arndt and Mary
Brown for serving as coordinators for
2006.
Our board and officers are working
on some interesting projects to move
the society forward in 2006.
Planning for the spring 2006
symposium is underway. It is
pointing to a location south of the
Twin Cities, addressing the ecology
of vegetation in the Driftless Area of
southeastern Minnesota.
The board is working on designing
and printing our very first Native
Plant Society T-shirt in the coming
months, which should serve to
increase our exposure within our
communities and social circles. Scott
Milburn and Jason Husveth will be
participating in workshops through
the Science Museum of Minnesota
(funded by the National Science
Foundation) to document the
Society's 23 -year history and to
preserve the many archival materials
on loan from our many members. We
plan to incorporate much of this
archival information into the
society's new Web site
(www.mnnps.org) and have this
information more readily available
for the society's 25th anniversary in
2007. Shirley Mah Kooyman and
Linda Huhn are investigating the
possibility of establishing a society
scholarship to benefit Minnesota
students of botany, ecology, and
related areas of study.
We always welcome the ideas of
our members, and we invite all of our
membership to participate in the
many programs, field trips, and
special events we are planning for the
coming year. Please feel free to send
your ideas and suggestions to me at
president@mnnps.org. I look
forward to seeing you all at the
November native seed exchange,
winter field trips, and future
meetings.
Jason Husveth, president, Minnesota
Native Plant Society
Master Naturalists
The first Minnesota Master
Naturalist Program is underway.
This volunteer program is similar to
the Minnesota Master Gardener
Program. Three locally taught 40-
hour courses are: Big Woods, Big
Rivers, started this fall; Prairies and
Potholes, starting in 2006;
Northwoods, Great Lakes, starting in
2007. Additional information is at
www .minnesotamasternaturalist.org
Grey Cloud Dunes SNA
2005 marked the first year of the
society's stewardship role at Grey
Cloud Dunes SNA in Cottage Grove.
In cooperation with the DNR, we
hosted three work events and one
prairie hike. The prairie hike was the
best - attended event. Four hard -core
souls worked on honeysuckle
removal in February, about 15 people
stacked brush and cut large trees with
hand saws in March, and four
intrepid volunteers pulled spotted
knapweed on a "slightly warm"
evening in July. Many thanks to all
members who helped. We hope to
increase our participation in 2006.
Plant Lore
by Thor Kommedahl
What is moonseed?
Moonseed, also called Canada
moonseed, is Menispermum
canadense, a member of the
moonseed family.
How did it get its name?
The bluish -black fruits (drupes)
each contain a single, crescent moon -
shaped, flat seed, hence the name
Menispermum, which means
"moonseed" from the Greek words.
What does the plant look like?
It is a climbing, woody vine up to
12 feet long. Leaves have three to
seven shallow lobes, and the petiole
is attached to the blade above the leaf
base. The flowers are small and
whitish. Some have mistakenly
identified moonseed as wild grape
because of the resemblances of
leaves, fruits, and vines. Leaves are
more obtuse than grape leaves.
Remember, wild grape vines have
tendrils.
Where does it grow?
It is native to Minnesota in rich,
moist thickets and along stream
banks.
Is it edible or medicinal?
The yellow root extract once
served as a substitute for sarsaparilla
in soft drinks. Early on, it was used
as a diuretic and laxative and even
listed then as an official drug in the
US Pharmacopeia.
But is it poisonous?
Yes. Fruits and seeds are
poisonous. Cases of poisoning, with
some fatalities, have been reported
from children confusing moonseed
with wild grapes (which are edible).
The poison is an alkaloid that affects
the nervous system. Menispermum is
in the family of plants that produce
tubocurarine, the chief ingredient of
curare — the South American arrow
poison.
Would anyone actually cultivate
this plant?
Yes, it is cultivated outdoors for its
foliage. It can be propagated from
seeds and by cuttings.
