Wood Platform: Applicant should verify whether the existing wood platform shown in the survey is <br /> to be removed or is to remain, or is seasonal for winter dock storage. !f it is to remain or is <br /> seasonal, the applicant should clarify how this impacts the planting plan. <br /> iShrub Spacing: A number of the proposed shrubs are shown at 6' or 7' on center. This includes the <br /> dogwoods, viburnum, amur maple, and sumac. While this spacing reflects their mature size, it does <br /> not provide sufficient root structure to stabilize the slope when the roots of the previously cut <br /> vegetation decompose. The maximum spacing on new shrubs should be reduced to 4' on center, <br /> with 3' on center preferred for smaller species. The honeysuckle at 2.5' on center is appropriately <br /> spaced. Applicant should revise plant quantities as required to cover exposed slopes. <br /> 3. Perennial and Grass Spacing: To stabilize the slope, all perennials and grasses should be spaced <br /> at 1.5' on center, with the exception of the switch grass and little bluestem, which should be spaced <br /> 2' on center, and the sedum, which should be spaced at 1' on center. Applicant should revise plant <br /> quantities as required to cover exposed slopes. <br /> 4. Plant Species: The Moonshadow and Winter Creeper Euonymous and the Wilton Carpet Juniper <br /> are not proven perFormers for stabilizing south-facing slopes. Ash Leaf Falsespirea and Red or <br /> White Snowberry are recommended alternatives. Also, amur maples have begun to show up in the <br /> wild and are competing with native plants, so are not recommended. <br /> 5. Planting Practices/Temporary Erosion Control: Excess soil removed from planting holes will wash <br /> into the lake if it is left uncovered on the slope. Therefore, cutting existing dead stumps off at the <br /> ground, seeding fihe slope, placing type 2S straw erosion cantrol blanket, and then�planting through <br /> the blankei, is recommended. No excess soil should be left on top ofithe blanket. <br /> • � � . <br /> Bonestroo,Rosene,Anderlik and Associates,Inc. . www.bonestroo.com <br /> G St Paul: G Milwaukee: 0 Rochesler. 0 SL Cloud: 0 Chicago: <br /> 2335 Wesl High+vay 3'v 12075 N.Corporote Parkria�,Sie 200 I 12 7i S7ee�YE 3721 23'�Streel S 1850 Wesl Winchesler Rd,Ste 105 <br /> Sl Paul,tiW 55113 Aitquon,'NI 53092 RochesL-r,FM!SSW5 SL Cbud,MN 55](11 Libertyville,IL E0048 <br /> - Fhone:o51-63u�4c00 Pnone:2u2593•5032 Phone:507•282•21U1 Phone:320-251•4:53 Phone:847-BI&tc31 <br /> Fax:651�o:n•13�f fax:202-?41-0W t Fax:507-2d2J 1C0 FFax:320•251-6252 Faz:B47�d16•7702 <br />
