Also attached is a copy of the cash register receipt. With this kind of escrow we are supposed to be proactive and make sure the buffer is established and maintained for two years, so there's no requirement for the property owner to make a written request for its return. Actually Mrs. Kosek asked about it when she was paying another escrow. Please send a copy of John's memo along with the check.

The turf area has been converted to native vegetation per the City requirements. Overall the buffer meets the requirements of the ordinance. There is some thistle encroachment along the edge of the buffer and lawn that should be spot treated with herbicide, but this is minor. The site is currently in compliance and it is recommended that the $800 escrow be returned.

Turner From: Evelyn M. Turner Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2010 2:17 PM To: John Smyth (jsmyth@bonestroo.com) Subject: Wetland Bufffer 3060 Sixth Avenue North (Your file No. 139-06000) John: In May 2006 the Kosek's escrowed $800 to guarantee seeding of a buffer area required in conjunction with a swimming pool. Mrs. Kosek was in today taking care of another escrow. After I explained that she would have to make a written request to have it released she told me they had made this escrow in 2006 and didn't know they had to request its return. She said the seeding had been done. So when you are in the area please check it out and let me know if the escrow can be released.

As shown a portion of the property has a natural buffer of trees and shrubs that can be preserved and will accomplish the vegetation requirements of the buffer ordinance. The existing turf area requires planting and/or seeding. Due to the applicant's consultant including plant names with genus only and not the full common or scientific name I am not able to recommend approval as submitted. Many of the plants listed are not or may not (depending on full name) be native to Minnesota. I discussed this with Chad Holland of Holland Bobcat Service and he requested that I provide him with list of species from Prairie Restoration, Inc. which is a supplier that he utilizes that would be acceptable. Included as the second page of this memo is a seed mix with species that are acceptable. This was pulled off Prairie Restoration, Inc. website and could be purchased as a seed mix or selected species could be purchased as live plants. If the plan involves planting as currently proposed a mix of native grasses and wildflowers should be utilized. If planted the density should be at least 1 plant per every 4 feet using triangular spacing to insure adequate coverage of native vegetation. The planting plan should be resubmitted for review and approval. The scale of the drawing should be provided to allow it to be reviewed. We will need to discuss what the City will require as far as a recording of the buffer area so if the property ever changes hands the new property owner will be aware that the buffer must be preserved.
