As the property is the result of placement of a large amount of <br />fill brought in during the 1960s, the applicant indicated that it's likely this wetland is not a protected wetland <br />subject to regulation under the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District <br />(MCWD)requested the applicant provide documentation to support their assertion that the wetland is <br />incidental, not subject to WCA and therefore does not have any limitations on setbacks, filling, etc. <br />However, if the MCWD determines that this wetland qualifies as a protected wetland, then additional <br />information and approvals may be required. <br />A Notice of Decision (NOD) from MCWD must be submitted to the City before this application proceeds to the <br />City Council for review. <br />LOT ANALYSIS <br />Section 6.12.1550 — Lot Area/Width: <br />LR-IC <br />Lot Area <br />Lot Width <br />Required <br />21,780 s.f.
