11. The following comments pertain to all proposed ponds that include an infiltration bench
(Basins 100, 200 and 300):
a. Infiltration test results will be required in the location of all proposed infiltration
benches and infiltration basins. Infiltration test results have not been submitted in the
location of proposed Basin 100. If filtration is to be used, the applicant will need to
provide a specification for amended soils.
b. The exfiltration above the piped outlet elevation should be included in the HydroCAD
model and the exfiltration rate should correspond to what is presented in the
infiltration test results.
c. The proposed infiltration benches will be required to meet the 48-hour drawdown
requirement.
d. Outlets from the pond should be moved out of the permanent pond area and should be
moved away from the inlet to minimize the risk of short circuiting.
12. The proposed piped outlet being modeled for Basin 400 is not shown in the plans.
13. Access routes for all proposed stormwater basins are required for maintenance purposes.
Applicant should callout access locations for all proposed stormwater basins.
14. A defined riprap EOF spillway will be required for all stormwater basins per details provided
on Sheet 33. Applicant should include location and elevation of all EOF spillways on the
storm sewer plans.
15. The soil borings provided show that there are clay soils throughout the site. Modeling should
be updated to reflect the D soils present.
16. Proposed and existing HydroCAD models should be modeling the same area. There is
roughly 120 acres included in the existing conditions model that is not included in the
proposed conditions model. All offsite drainage should be included in the models.
17. Existing and proposed conditions drainage area maps should be updated to show the location
and boundaries of all subcatchments included in the models.
18. Time of concentrations should be calculated in HydroCAD and not directly entered to
confirm accuracy. Provide supporting calculations for all directly entered times of
concentrations.
19. From the drainage area maps, it appears that P-LU 2-6 (P.E. Edit) in the existing model
corresponds to Pond 500P in the proposed conditions model. The modeled storage for the
wetland differs between the existing and proposed conditions models but no wetland impacts
are shown on Sheet 37 for this wetland. Applicant should update the models so that they
have the same storage modeled for the wetland.
a. There is a proposed piped outlet from this wetland that is over four feet lower than the
current natural spillway outlet. The applicant will be required to show that this does
not change the hydrology of the existing wetland as part of the wetland permit
requirements.
20. There are numerous inconsistencies between what is shown in the plans on Sheet 35 for the
outlets of the stormwater basins and what is being modeled in HydroCAD and P8. Applicant
will need to update the models so that they are representative of what is being shown in the
plans.
21. The same total area should be modeled in P8 as in HydroCAD.
22. The model should be run for at least 50 years and should include the most recent
precipitation data included in the precipitation file to get accurate removal efficiencies.
City Council Summary – March 11, 2019
9
23. The modeling of the proposed stormwater ponds with filtration benches is incorrect and is
overestimating the removal efficiencies of the basins. The applicant should update the model
for the stormwater basins in the following way:
a. The design infiltration rate should be added to the flood pool section of the
stormwater pond devices where applicable. This will model infiltration above the
outlet elevation. The design infiltration rate should match what is being modeled in
HydroCAD.
b. The infiltration basins should be removed from the model (except for Device 600i).
c. Applicant should confirm total phosphorus and total suspended solids removal
requirements are still being met after the model has been updated.
24. Watersheds 201 and 600 are only modeling the impervious area. The pervious area in these
watersheds should be added to the model.
25. Watershed 300 in the P8 model has 25% impervious while the corresponding HydroCAD
subwatershed has 45% impervious modeled. Applicant should update the models to be
consistent with one another and representative of the plans.
26. The total areas listed in the table in Section III.A of the Stormwater Management Plan are
inconsistent with the total area called out in the plans and the total area being modeled.
Applicant should include the entire site in the areas shown in the table.
27. Any projects seeking a wetland alteration permit subject to this article will also be required to
submit the following incomplete requirements: Existing and proposed drainage areas to
wetlands; Buffer strip plan meeting the criteria of subsections 20-411(c) and (d).
28. Sec. 20-416. Mitigation. Wetland mitigation shall be undertaken on-site. If this is not
feasible, then mitigation may occur locally within the subwatershed. If this is not possible,
then mitigation may occur outside the subwatershed, elsewhere in the city. If mitigation
cannot be accomplished on-site, or if the city deems it necessary to perform mitigation off-
site, then the applicant shall be responsible for providing off-site mitigation within the major
subwatershed, as designated by the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, or purchasing
wetland credits from the state wetland bank.
29. Stormwater runoff shall not be discharged into wetlands without water quality pretreatment
as prescribed by this Code.
30. If a Wetland Alteration Permit is issued allowing wetland alteration, the following standards
shall be followed: (1) The alteration will not have a net adverse effect on the ecological and
hydrological characteristics of remaining wetland, (2) It shall be located as to minimize the
impact on vegetation, (3) It shall not adversely change water flow, (4) The size of the altered
area shall be limited to the minimum required for the proposed action, (5) The disposal of
any excess material is prohibited within remaining wetland areas, (6) The disposal of any
excess material shall include proper erosion control and nutrient retention measures, (7)
Alterations to any wetland area are prohibited during waterfowl breeding season or fish
spawning season, unless it is determined by the city that the wetland is not used for
waterfowl breeding or fish spawning, and (8) Alterations to wetland areas shall be mitigated
in accordance with the requirements of this article if the activity results in a loss of wetland
area and/or function and value of the wetland.
31. The alteration shall not alter the hydrological patterns in the remainder of the wetland, if a
portion of the wetland remains, unless exempted under Sec. 20-417. Show how hydrologic
patterns will not be altered for the remaining wetlands.
City Council Summary – March 11, 2019

32. Sec. 20-405. Wetland delineation. An electronic copy of the delineated wetland boundaries
must be submitted in a format compatible with the city's GIS database.
33. Sec. 20-406. Wetland classification. All wetlands delineated under Sec. 20-405 of this article
that have not been previously classified shall be classified using the results from the
Minnesota Routine Assessment Method for Evaluating Wetland Functions (MnRAM Version
3.0), or future versions. A MnRAM shall be completed by the property owner or applicant
for each previously unclassified wetland. An electronic version of the MnRAM evaluation
must be submitted to and approved by the city to establish the classification of each wetland
prior to any alteration or impact to the wetland.
34. Staff review will be conditional upon the approved Wetland Replacement Plan.
35. A grading permit cannot be issued until the applicant has completed the WCA process.
36. Wetland Buffers. Wetland buffers and buffer monumentation will be required adjacent to the
wetlands on site. Please indicate wetland buffers widths and locations where signage will be
placed on a plan sheet. Please find additional information on signage placement in the
guidance document attached. The WMO provides signs and sign posts for the cost of
materials. Alternative signs (by the city or applicant) are also acceptable provided they
contain similar information.
37. Sec. 19-146. Wetland elements.
a. Water level fluctuations (peak elevation and duration) for wetlands shall be limited to
two feet and duration not to exceed 48 hours so as to prevent the destruction of
wildlife habitat and wetland vegetation.
b. Sedimentation basins or sediment removal devices shall be provided prior to
discharge into wetlands.
c. Variable bottom contours should be considered to provide deeper holes and flat
shallow benches. This feature will provide habitat for diversity of plants and wetland
inhabitants for wetland mitigation sites and stormwater basins.
Landscaping and Tree Preservation
1. The developer shall conduct a walk-through of the grading limits on site prior to
removals with city staff to inspect for opportunities for additional tree preservation.
2. Tree preservation fencing shall be installed around existing trees to be saved prior to any
