following conditions:

selected must be from the Bluff Creek Management Plan native plant list. These areas
shall not be mowed or managed as turf areas.
e. Evaluate other site designs, stormwater management techniques and low-impact
development practices for their benefit in reducing impacts to the primary and secondary
zones of the Bluff Creek Overlay District.

reforestation should be done with deciduous tree species representative of the existing
species composition. The forested areas are dominated by bur oak.

area and prohibit any development. The City shall have final approval of the easement
restrictions. Any wetland mitigation activities that are required within this area shall have
final approval by City staff. No additional activities shall be allowed within this area and
access to the mitigation site shall be the existing path.
J. The wooded areas of Lot 1 and Outlot B within the Bluff Creek primary zone shall be
covered by a conservation easement that restricts specific activities and prohibits any
further development within the area.
4. Termination of Permit. The City may revoke the permit following a public hearing for
violation of the terms of this permit.
5. Lapse. If within one year of the issuance of this permit the authorized construction has
not been substantially completed or the use commenced, this permit shall lapse, unless an extension
is granted in accordance with the Chanhassen Zoning Ordinance.
