grading. A detailed final grading plan will be submitted with the final plat application. The proposed overall graded area is+/-2 .5 acres. Storm water: The storm water treatment pond will provide temporary storage of stormwater runoff, treatment of storm water, and sediment removal. The outlet from the stormwater treatment area will discharge into the existing wetland. The stormwater plan will provide adequate treatment and storage to meet the City requirements. A stormwater report was prepared and submitted with this preliminary plat application for the City to review. The project is exempt from Minnehaha Creek Watershed District review, since the new residential development will result in less than 20 percent increase in the impervious surface. Wetlands: A wetland delineation report was prepared by Kjohaug Environmental Services Company, Inc. (KES) (KES Project No. 2012-068, dated October 22, 2012). A copy of the delineation report has been submitted with this application. A wetland classification type change was submitted to the watershed along with the MNRAM assessment data. The watershed reviewed and approved the change to wetland type: Manage 2. The proposed site plan shows a 30 ' wetland buffer and a 25' City required wetland setback. No wetland impacts are proposed for this project. The proposed wetland buffers and setbacks are shown on the attached plan sheets. Some construction will occur in the wetland setback area, no work is proposed within the buffer area. At the completion of construction and prior to home building, wetland buffer markers will be placed at the specified locations. Natural Resouces Inventory -Woodland Areas & Protection: KES prepared a natural reso urces information inventory for the proposed project. The report is attached for City review . Landscape Plan, Monuments, & Entrance: This development will create a site with preserved natural woodland areas, scenic vistas, pond and wetland views. The stormwater pond and private drive will have landscaping and/or trees. The entrance to BAYSIDE MEADOWS is proposed to have an entrance monument with typical landscaping.

These documents will be prepared and submitted with the final plat application. A select group of builders will participate in "BAYSIDE MEADOWS".
