Mike Newberg (Property <br /> Manager) <br /> 1400 Bracketts Point Road <br /> Wayzata, MN 55391 <br /> 952-292-2905 <br /> Restoration Plan for Southways Estate Lakefront <br /> 1400 Brackets Point Road. Wayzata, MN 55391 <br /> Tree Replacement: <br /> A quantity of (6) 6-7' high Maple trees furnished from nursery stock to be planted <br /> along west shoreline. The trees will be spaced in manner to best create a natural <br /> look when combined with existing trees. <br /> (Because of buried utilities along the west road edge and difficulties planting on <br /> the hill slope a more manageable and slightly smaller than the recommended 2" <br /> diameter size tree was chosen). <br /> See Plan on page 3 for tree locations. <br /> Fostering of Volunteer Hardwood Seedlings <br /> A minimum of 17 Volunteer Maple Seedlings will be selected, staked and nurtured <br /> to promote successful development into mature trees. We added 2 extra seedlings <br /> to help balance out the natural spacing and to compensate for the slightly <br /> reduced size of nursery stock maples. <br /> See Plan on page 3 for locations <br /> Management of invasive and nonnative plants <br /> Invasive and nonnative plants including European Buckthorn, and Tartarian <br /> Honeysuckle will be cut this fall and exposed trunk surfaces treated with <br /> concentrated Round-up herbicide. Care will be taken not to affect any beneficial <br /> plants. Garlic Mustard and Leafy Spurge will either be pulled out during the <br /> season or treated with Roundup herbicide in November. Sumac will be monitored <br /> and cut if it appears to be a determent to more desirable smaller plants. <br /> Removal and Trimming of Dead Trees <br /> The dead cottonwood tree and dead stump along the west shoreline will be <br /> removed. The hackberry tree that has approximately 30% dieback will be <br /> trimmed to remove dead limbs. <br />
