Ms. Rachel Juba August 13, 2020 Page 3 <br />is not feasible. These credits can also be sold to development projects in instances where infiltration is not feasible. 18. As part of the City’s Comprehensive Water Resource’s Management Plan, there are a number of additional water reuse projects that the City is interested in pursuing. The City is currently planning for the construction of a water reuse system that would take stormwater from the pond located in the northwest quadrant of Oneka Parkway and CSAH 8. This project is proposed to irrigate the CSAH 8 median and boulevard areas, Lions Park, City Hall, Finale Boulevards (new segment) and 147th Boulevards (new segment). To fulfill infiltration requirements, Hugo Gardens is proposing to participate in the costs associated with the water reuse project. Since this water reuse system will not be in place at the time of project approvals, use of the credits generated from previous water reuse projects are proposed to be used for this project for permitting purposes until such time that the water reuse system constructed by the City is available to this site. The Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan has been approved by the City Council and is anticipated to be approved by Rice Creek Watershed District in the coming weeks. 19. The applicant is showing a stormwater pond being excavated north of the future 147th Street. The applicant’s engineer indicated they have yet to complete an earthwork balance for the site and that material may be needed for the proposed site improvements. This additional ponding area is anticipated to be used to provide stormwater treatment for a small portion of the future 147th Street project. 20. Stormwater plan and model comments have been provided to applicant and will need to be addressed in future submittals. <br />Wetland 21. There are no direct impacts to wetlands proposed, however the applicant will need to demonstrate the wetland is not cut off from hydrology by intercepting the surface water and placing it into the proposed stormwater pond. We are waiting for updated HydroCad and stormwater report from CSG. 22. Actively working with CSG on two alternatives for Pond 1. One alternative would utilize the existing wetland as part of the stormwater BMP and the other would be installed directly adjacent as shown in the plans. 23. Temporary wetland impacts for storm sewer construction will need to be applied for. Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on this project. Additional comments may be necessary following the review of the responses to these. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 651-286-8463.
