They have now provided final development plans <br />and request Development Plan Approval. Because the adjacent parcel is now being used to <br />provide parking for this site, staff is recommending that that parcel be rezoned B-6/PUD and its <br />further development be subject to the PUD process. Therefore, w e have scheduled and noticed <br />for a public hearing for tl.at rezoning concurrent with the medical office approval l.earing. <br />Wetland Issue Unresolved The applicants have yet to sign a purchase agreement with the City. <br />The primary unresolved issue is whether a wetland e,xisting on the site will fall under WCA rules <br />and require mitigation. This wetland is at the center of the site and would be filled when the site <br />is developed The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) convened a Technical <br />Evaluation Panel (TEP) on Monday October 7 to view the site and attempt to conclude whether <br />the wetland is subject to mitigation requirements if it is filled. The City Engineer’s office has <br />requested that the wetland be considered as incidental ’ and exempt from WCA rule. The basis <br />for the exemption request is that aerial photo evidence suggests the site did not exhibit w etland <br />characteristics until after 1991, and only exhibits such characteristics today due to high rainfall <br />this summer and poor drainage due to past site disturbance. <br />The ruling by the MCWD is due by the end of October, undi-r the 60-day mle. If mitigation is <br />required, the City Council will have to determine whether the City will be involved in providing <br />mitigation or leave that to the purchasers. <br />List of Exhibits <br />A - Final Development Plan Sheets: <br />CO. 1 - Title Sheet <br />Cl.l - Existing Conditions/Demolition Plan <br />C2.1 - Preliminary Site Plan <br />C3.1 - Preliminary Grading Plan <br />C4.1 - Preliminary Utility Plan <br />A1.1 - Construction Floor Plan <br />El.l - Exterior Elevations <br />E1.2 - Exterior Elevations <br />E2.1 - Preliminary Sit^ Lighting Plan <br />.'2.1 • Preliminary Landscape Plan <br />B - Resolution No. 4860 and Exhibits <br />C - City Engineer’s Comments <br />D * Final Development Plan Approval Punchlist <br />#02-2842/2843 ProfcHlonal Properties ofOroao <br />October 14,2002 <br />Pasclof?
