18. Submit full M1DS report. <br />fI fullMIDS report will be corn feted during the constmaion doer ments pl e. <br />Staff will review these documents once they have been submitted. <br />19. Staff reserves the right to continue review of all site, grading and utllityplans. <br />So noted <br />Environmental: <br />1. MnDNR will follow up with comments regarding requirements for state floodplain and the <br />Mississippi River Wild and Scenic and Recreational requirements. <br />So rioted <br />Comments were received from MnDNR on January 11, 2019. Please review attached letter and <br />respond to their concerns. <br />2. Provide before and after hardcover calculations for the Saxon site. Ordinance limits impertrious <br />surfaces to 25010 or no net increase. <br />The preliminary plans have been updated with pre and post hardcover calculations for both <br />projects. <br />The plans show a 30.5% hardcover calculation, which does not meet city standards. Please <br />verify your hardcover calculations. <br />3. Section 30-2022 requires a 30 foot setback f nw the top -of -bluff. Move structures outside of the setback. <br />Both of these projects are proposed as a PUD which includes the flexibility of building <br />within the 30' setback from the top of bluff. <br />A deviation from the standard will require approval from the DNR and City Council. Any <br />approved deviations will be memorialized in a PUD agreement. <br />4. Submitted plans showing the hardcover calculations. Sketches indicate the area inside the <br />building, courtyard, will have impervious surfaces. <br />a. If land along the river is dedicated for park use, the hardcover calculations will change. <br />Updated plans will be required based on park recommendations. <br />The preliminary plans faave been updated with pre and past hardcover calculations for bath projects <br />The plans do not match calculated hardcover existing/proposed numbers. The discrepancies <br />need further explanation. <br />5. The proposed site does not meet setbacks from the Mississippi River, does not meet bluff <br />setbacks and potential grading plans are concerning from an environmental standpoint. Bluff <br />destabilization is the biggest concern overall for proposed project. There is no wetland <br />delineation on fate for this site. Any encroachment into the bluff setback or bluff area may <br />require approval from the Department of Natural Resources. As submitted previously, there <br />are height restriction concerns as well. Structures along the Mississippi like this may not be <br />higher than 30 feet tall. <br />The only proposed site improvements inthin the 100 foot setback, from the 100 year base flood elevation <br />boundary is the expansion of the existing stormmater basin below the bluff The existing bluff will be protected <br />and monitored by an independent testing company during constmaion, A awland detemaination was corrrpleted <br />for this site with no wetlands identi,erl Height restrictions for both fthe pmposed buildings wri11 be met. <br />If hardcover is proposed within 45 feet of a suspected wedand, a wedand delineation will be <br />required. Building elevations showing the proposed heights have not been received and will be <br />
