Brookfield ,Addition Sketch Plan Revie~v December 30, 2004 this setback requirement. ,Additionally, band located within .300 feet of the OHW of Trott Brook is subject to Shoreland Management requirements; Shoreland Rules limit impervious surface to 25% on tots within this ]00-ibot zone. Staff has sent the sketch plan to the DNR for comment. Tree Preservation Plan: The City's Tree Preservation Ordinance applies .to your proposed plat. A Tree Preservation plan must be part of the preliminary, plat submittal; particular attention should be paid to vegetative management requirements in the Scenic River and Shoretand Management districts. Densi~ Transition: Currently, City Code requires density transition between the proposed single-family urban tots and the surrounding single-family rural lots. Density transitiQn requirements must be incorporated into the preliminary, plat submittal. Wetlands: A substantial portion of the property is'..wetland, which will need to be delineated and encumbered with drainage and utility easements on the preliminary and final plats. The rear lot lines for the parceis along Troll Brook should terminate near the wetland boundary, and should not be extended to the centerline of the brook as shown. The City anticipates adopting a wetland buffer ordinance in early' 2005. Staff is requesting that tt:~e developer give some consideration to implementing a wetland buffer where applicable throughout the plat. Environmental Review: Because more than 80 acres of agricultural, native prairie, forest, or naturally vegetated land is being converted to residential use, an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) is required. The EAW is a requirement of the preliminary plat submittal. Traffic Analysis Report: The City Charter requires a traffic analysis report for this development. City'Staff will utilize the services of a consultant to prepare the report and the expenses incurred will be charged to the plat application escrow fl.~nd. This report must be available at the time of preliminary plat review. Grading and Drainage Plans: Grading and drainage plans will need to be provided during the preliminary plat process. Ponding will be required prior to discharge into public water bodies such as the on-site wetlands. A permit from the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization will be required. Streets and Access: The proposal includes several public roads that provide access to the plat via CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd) and 168m Avenue from the east, Garnet St. from the south, and Marble St. (platted only) fi'om the south. A temporac/cul-de-sac will need to be provided on the urmamed street shown east of Garnet St. A 40-thor-wide segment of 167~l~ Avenue which was dedicated by the Westby ls~ Addition will need to be vacated. The City's Comprehensive Plan proposes the exl:ension of 167*~, Avenue as a collector street through this subdivision. Tixe submitted sketch plan is not consistent with this plan. If this sketch 62
