PAXMA R© <br /> they then add several new trees over and above what they have installed upon the <br /> completion of a new home. <br /> D. Storm water Planning <br /> Outlots are planned for public works oversight and monitoring, a significant platting shift <br /> from the original master plan. As currently proposed, about 9.5 acres is in ponds and <br /> combinations of pond/wetland for stormwater planning. This is about 10 % of the site <br /> total land. This is a preferred design alternative for inlets and outlets of piping and to <br /> manage the pond edges as municipal standards evolve. Areas of treatment are handled <br /> through sump manholes, to infiltration areas in the overall pond,then to larger storage <br /> and storm bounce areas. Openings into home basements are protected via emergency <br /> overflow designs and height similar to the previous master plans. These can best be <br /> highlighted by engineer submittals through the City Engineer. <br /> IV. LANDSCAPE PLANNING <br /> With an average of 2.5 new trees per dwelling unit, the 256 new home sites will provide <br /> at least 640 new trees at project initial completion. The area east of Edison home sites <br /> will have plantings between County 40 and the new homes to create greater privacy in <br /> time. These will be maintained by the HOA. <br /> Plans are designed by the Landscape Architecture team at Sambatek and will include <br /> suggestions for foundation plantings at the detached townhome dwellings and along the <br /> park trail corridor. See detail plans. <br /> V. PUBLIC PARKS AND TRAILS <br /> A. Previous lands <br /> Area was designated at the very south of the project masterplan. These remain, are <br /> part of the land versus cash dedication conversation in a development agreement, and <br /> will be dedicated once grading is completed, or at a specified time in a future phase <br /> adjacent to the parcel. The likely size of new land dedication is about 2.1 new acres, <br /> or about 2.2% of the project area. We would propose to regrade, respreads topsoil and <br /> reseed to the park grade type chosen. A facility planning request to parks and rec <br /> should be created as part of the future detail planning at a final plat for phase III. <br /> B. New trail corridors <br /> Previous plans chose not to add the high ground between the two power pole <br /> transmission lines. We believe this to be a missed opportunity. At 200' wide from the <br /> north edge of the easement to the south edge of the easement, options for a <br /> meandering trail, overlooks and other detail designs for use can occur in the <br /> 5160 Viking Blvd. NW <br /> Anoka, MN <br /> (763)753-6176 <br />
