North Dayton Development AUAR incompatibility of surrounding land uses include: ■ Select wetlands on the project site will be maintained. • Wetland impacts, when unavoidable to accommodate the proposed development, shall require mitigation as required at the time of application. • Disturbed areas shall be stabilized and protected as soon as possible following disturbances, and facilities will be implemented to retain sediment on the site. • Building design shall include the following features or characteristics to offset the proposed building heights and potential visual impacts: - Building are to be constructed utilizing high quality materials and architectural design; - Lighting must be down directional; - A high quality landscaping plan will be submitted to provide additional generally beautify the project throughout. 10. Geology, soils and topography/land forms screening to the north and a. Geology — Describe the geology underlying the project area and identify and map any susceptible geologic features such as sinkholes, shallow limestone formations, unconfined/shallow aquifers, or karst conditions. Discuss any limitations of these features for the project and any effects the project could have on these features. Identify any project designs or mitigation measures to address effects to geologic features. According to the Hennepin County Geologic Atlas, surficial deposits beneath the study area consist primarily of loamy till. Franconia bedrock is located below the surficial deposits across most of the site The majority of the study area is noted to have a low sensitivity to groundwater from pollution. According to the Minnesota Karst Inventory dataset, no sinkholes, seeps, or springs are identified within the study area. The closest instance of Karst conditions is 6.19 miles northeast of the study area. b. Soils and topography — Describe the soils on the site, giving NRCS (SCS) classifications and descriptions, including limitations of soils. Describe topography, any special site conditions relating to erosion potential, soil stability or other soils limitations, such as steep slopes, highly permeable soils. Provide estimated volume and acreage of soil excavation and/or grading. Discuss impacts from project activities (distinguish between construction and operational activities) related to soils and topography. Identify measures during and after project construction to address soil limitations including stabilization, soil corrections or other measures. Erosion/sedimentation control related to stormwater runoff should be addressed in response to the stormwater "water resources" question. For an AUAR, the number of acres to be graded and number of cubic yards of soil to be moved need not be given; instead, a general discussion of the likely earthmoving needs for development of the area should be given, with an emphasis on unusual or problem areas. In discussing mitigation measures, both the 17
