Sincerely, Chris Leeseberg,Park Planner/Planner Ph: 763.635.1033 Fx: 763.635.1090 cleeseberg@ElkRiverNIN.gov �i City of Memorandum Elk -�-� River To: Planning Department From: Kristin Mroz,Environmental Technician Date: July 9,2014 Subject: Site Plan Review Comments At the Site Plan Review on July 8,2014,we discussed wetland easements for a number of proposals. According to 30-418, (2) Easements shall be provided along each side of the centerline of any watercourse or drainage channel,whether or not shown in the comprehensive development plan,to a width sufficient to provide proper maintenance and for stormwater runoff for the designed storm event determined by the city,but such easements shall not be less than 20 feet in width. The ponds on Khever Lake Fields 5`h Addition are not designated wetland so I agree that the easement should at least stay as it was platted for the townhomes (at least 20 feet.) I propose a minimum of 45-foot drainage easement around all wetlands at Natures Edge Business Center 2"d addition, as per our City Code 30-1852 that requires a 25-foot Wetland Buffer Strip and an extra 20-foot Wetland Buffer strip setback which does not allow structures,principal or accessory. Creating the 45-foot easement will let potential developers plan accordingly. The West Oaks 6`h Addition should also include a 45-foot drainage easement surrounding the wetland in between the planned townhomes and single family homes. The current easement does not include the minimum 20-foot easment and should be altered to include the 45-foot drainage easement per the wetland ordinance 30-1852.
