<br />corrections. All such corrections are subject to City Council <br />approval. <br /> <br />h. If an applicant questions the boundary of a wetland, the <br />. jurisdictional status of a wetland, or whether a wetland exists, they <br />shall have the burden to supply detailed information, for review by <br />the LGU, supporting the applicant's assertion, including but not <br />limited to, topographic, hydrologic, floristic andlor soil data <br />deemed necessary. <br /> <br />S~bd. 2. Best Management Practices. The MPCA's Best Management <br />Practices shall be followed for the construction of wetland protection methods and related <br />improvements. <br /> <br />9.26.06 <br /> <br />Wetland Buffer ~trips - When Required. <br /> <br />Subd. 1. Wetland Buffer Strip. A wetland buffer strip shall be <br />maintained abutting all wetlands on new lots of record created after November 14, 2005. <br />Lots' of record inexistence on November 14, 2005 are not subject to the buffer <br />requirements set forth in this Section. At the time a final plat is to be recorded, the <br />developer shall also recor.d a notice of the wetland buffer requirement and prohibited <br />activities against the title to the lot with the office of the Anoka County Recorder. Before <br />the City issues a building permit for a lot with a required wetland buffer, the developer <br />shall install the wetland buffermonumentation required under Section 9.26.08. . <br />. .. -. <br /> <br />Subd. 2. Wetland Buffer Compliance. Subject properties must comply <br />with the wetland buffer section setbacks from all wetlands including those wetlands not <br />located or only partially located on the subject property. <br /> <br />Subd. 3. Adjacent Roadways. For roadways that rnustbe aligned either <br />adjacent to or acrosS wetlands and are subject to WCA replacement requirements, <br />additional wetland filling to create a buffer strip shall not be required. All other <br />roadways and trails shall meet the buffer standards established in this Section. <br /> <br />Subd. 4. Development Grading. For buffers being created during <br />development grading, if the slope subsequent to final grading is greater than twelve (12) <br />percent, then the maximum buffer width for the wetland type is applicable to the area <br />having such slopes. The'use of a meandering buffer stripis encouraged to help maintain <br />a natural characteristic but average buffer widths must be adhered to. The widest portion <br />of the buffer should be in areas where surface drainage to the wetland will likely be <br /> <br />-144- <br />
