(c) In addition to application requirements, the City may require submission <br /> and approval of the following information: <br /> (1) A copy of the wetland replacement plan application submitted to the <br /> MCWD; <br /> (2) A concept plan showing the ultimate use of the property; <br /> (3) A grading plan, in hard copy format and a CAD or GIS format in <br /> Hennepin County coordinates, with appropriate drainage calculations and <br /> erosion controls prepared by a registered engineer; <br /> (4) A landscaping or revegetation plan; <br /> (5) Such other information as may be necessary or convenient to evaluate the <br /> proposed permit; and <br /> (6) A MnRAM assessment approved by the MCWD. <br /> Sec. 78-1610 Alteration of Wetlands. <br /> (a) No alteration of land within a wetland overlay district or a wetland buffer <br /> is allowed without a wetlands alteration permit, subject to recommendation by the <br /> Planning Commission and approval of the City Council. The Planning Commission must <br /> hold a public hearing after notifying the property owners within 350 feet of the property <br /> on which the proposed alteration will occur. Activities that constitute an alteration <br /> regulated by this section include changes to the size, depth or contour of the wetlands or <br /> its buffer, dredging, or alterations of wetlands or buffer vegetation. Alterations do not <br /> include wetland planting or the selective clearing or pruning of trees or vegetation that <br /> are dead, diseased, noxious weeds or similar hazards. A wetland alteration permit is not <br /> required when a wetland district is rezoned to another zoning classification. <br /> (b) Alteration of land within a wetland overlay district will only be allowed if <br /> water storage is provided in an amount compensatory to that removed. Unless otherwise <br /> approved by the City Council, compensatory wetland area must be provided within the <br /> same subwatershed district as the wetland being altered. In determining the <br /> appropriateness of an alteration request, the City Council will consider the size of the <br /> total wetland district, the magnitude of the area proposed for alteration, the aesthetic, <br /> hydrological and ecological effect, the type and function of wetlands involved, and such <br /> other factors as may be appropriate in order to provide the m�imum feasible protection <br /> to the wetlands. Application for a wetlands alteration permit must be accompanied by <br /> such information as required by the City, including: <br /> (1) A copy of the wetland replacement plan application submitted to the <br /> MCWD; <br /> Page 14 of 22 <br />
