One of the wetlands is classified as a preserve and <br /> requires a 50 foot bufFer. <br /> They have not completed any of the required vegetative work in the <br /> buffer that was required as part of their approval in 2007. The turf <br /> grass within the buffer must be removed and replaced with native <br /> vegetation. According to the ordinance Div. 3 Sec. 78-1605 (3) the <br /> seed mix must contain at least 12 pounds (PLS) per acre of native <br /> prairie grass seed and 5 pounds (PLS) per acre of native wildflower <br /> seed. The grass mixture must contain a minimum of four species while <br /> the wildflower mixture must contain a minimum of five species. A <br /> landscaping plan that meets the ordinance requirements will need to be <br /> submitted to the City for review. <br /> If they do not complete this work it is recommend that we apply the <br /> enforcement options of the City Code. <br />
