CITY of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO.A ' /I 18.a) The applicant has proposed a stormwater management plan which will include stormwater ponding on Lot 5 to provide for stormwater detention and treatment. The City Engineer has recommended reducing the size of the outlet pipe located under the Luce Line Trail. Reducing the :ize of the outlet pipe will reduce the rate of storm water dovsnstream but will increase the temporary high water level of the wetland during storm events. b) Part of this plan will involve raising the elevation of the horse trail portion of the Luce Line, located just north of the main Trail, and may involve filling a small portion of designated wetland within the plat and within the Luce Line Trail. Such filling will require additional detailed review prior to final plat approval; it would be appropriate to grant a variance for this minor wetland filling. The City Engineer, DNR, and Minnehaha Creek Watershed District shall review the Final Plans prior to final plat approval. c) The City Engineer has also recommended the establishment of vegetated buffer strips on each lot to provide additional runoff filtration, since not all runoff from development of the sue will be treated by the stormwater pond. 19.The Park Commission reviewed the application on April 5,1999 and recommended the applicant dedicate additional land to move the existing bike trail further from Old Crystal Bay Road. When the trail was built an easement was not granted resulting in the trail being located next to the road. Therefore, a 10 foot trail easement should be dedicated along the west edge of the property. This trail easement should be located over the 10' drainage and utility easement, and therefore shall not reduce the creditable lot area for Lots 1 and 8. 20. The Planning Commission reviewed the application on April 19, 1999 and recommended approval by a vote of 6 to 0 to approve the eight lot subdivision of Crystal Bay Preserve. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the City Council of the City of Orono hereby approves the preliminary plat of Crystal Bay Preserve for George W. Stickney at 250 and 340 Old Crystal Bay Road South per preliminary plat drawings by Mark S. Gronberg, a licensed surveyor of Coffin & Groaberg, Inc. dated March 17, 1999, revised June 22,1999 subject to the following conditions: Page 4 of 9
