STONEWOOD, LLC CONSERVATION DESIGN ANALYSIS <br /> G. Need for Proactive Management and Protection <br /> Disturbed areas will be stabilized with turf grass seed/sod typical of residential home sites. <br /> Stabilization will be accompanied by continued maintenance until fully established and self- <br /> sustaining. Additionally, any diseased trees and invasive trees will be addressed on an as <br /> needed basis. <br /> 3. Conservation Design Master Plan <br /> A. Consideration of Existing Drainage <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road preserves existing drainage patterns to Lake Minnetonka. <br /> B. Establishment of stormwater management system and methods of phosphorus reduction <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road enhances stormwater collection and treatment through installation of two <br /> stormwater infiltration basins. <br /> C. Removal of invasive species and diseased trees <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road results in the removal of diseased trees and invasive species on an as <br /> needed basis. <br /> D. Protection of significant tree stands and mitigation of stands to be impacted <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road proposes to preserve existing significant tree stands. <br /> E. Protection of existing wetlands, augmentation of buffers, mitigation of impacts and <br /> enhancement of degraded systems <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road will protect existing project site wetlands and their vegetative buffers. <br /> F. Justification and mitigation of any negative impact to ecological communities <br /> No significant impacts to ecological communities are expected. <br /> G. Maintenance of ecological connections <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road is identified by the City of Orono as a conceptual greenway corridor. Tree <br /> clearing will be minimized throughout the project site to preserve existing green way corridors and <br /> connections to area wildlife. <br /> H. Maintenance and protection of existing positive views and mitigation of negative views <br /> 387 Orono Orchard Road minimizes grading and clearing of vegetation,thus limited impacts to the <br /> views from Orono Orchard Road. <br /> I. Preservation or reinterpretation of existing landmarks <br /> Project does not impact local community landmarks. <br /> 4. Density & Performance Bonuses <br /> The project is not requesting any density or performance bonuses. <br /> 387 ORONO ORCHARD ROAD <br /> ORONO, MN <br /> JUNE 2018 12 <br />
