LP.RTaMO Meeting Minutes October 15, 1992 Page 5 Jankowski stated he received this information just yesterday and would like to have further documentation of how these lines were arrived at by the wetland delineator, John Anderson. Mr. Anderson also delineated Ramsey Meadows. Jankowski stated there was at least some initial concern on the degree of the wetlands that existed. Chris Lord, Anoka County Soil and ; Conservation District, had, reportedly, at one time felt there could be up to three to four acres involved. Janke•.aski indicated those findings put the Ramsey developer in a dilemma. He stated the question then was do we want to accept this delineation, or should they go to the Technical Review Committee for its determination. Jankowski stated it is his understanding Mr. Anderson has been in communication with Mr. Lord regarding this. He himself has not yet talked with Mr. Lord to determine if he agrees with Mr. Anderson's findings. Jankowski recalled at the board's October 1, 1992, special meeting, Mr. Lord indicated he was satisfied with Mr. Anderson's credentials and the quality of his work. Jankowski felt the next step would be to decide if they want to accept this delineation and *_hen move forward on the replacement order. Ottensman stated he had no problem with this delineation. Jankowski stated he will be - or'sing with the surveyor on this delineation issue in relation to the map. In the long run, should the developer decide to accept this delineation, Jankowski stateo. ne will then prepare a draft replacement agreement for the LRRNMO's consideration. Ottensman stated he, however, did have a problem with the proposed replacement. He indicated the law reads there should be avoidance, noting the location of lots five and six on the development plan. Schrantz indicated the law says it can still be done yet this year. Jankowski explained there was wetland in the middle of lot five and six which was not as large as a Type I wetland, approximately ore -half acre. He acknowledged Ottensman's position, and further noted that lots three and four are also somewhat affected. Upon continued review of the plans provided, Ottensman stated he felt development on lot thirteen would be acceptable. Schrantz indicated the developer will not be replacing 55,000 square feet. Jankowski agreed and read the appropriate portion of the proposed replacement agreement. The developer, according to the proposed agreement, will be constructing a siltation pond encompassing 5,090 square feet.
