WHEREAS, Pebble Creek, LLC, identified wetlands on property it owns located west of
60th Avenue N.W., and north of County Road 4. The entire property is approximately 440 acres.
The development and replacement of wetlands are phased developments. There is a need to
replace 0.64 acres (27,878 square feet) of Type 2 wetlands located in three separate areas of
Phase One of the development. The applicant proposes the filing of the wetland due to the
required street layout and grading for the mixed use commercial/higher density housing
development of Phase I. The applicant proposed to replace the filled wetlands onsite in a
drainageway adjacent to existing wetlands. The 82,802 square feet of new wetland credits and
9,284 square feet of public value credits will be more than sufficient to meet the 2:1 replacement
requirement. The applicant intends to use the excess wetlands for a future phase of Pebble
Creek. The applicant intends to minimize or avoid future impacts to the remaining 20 acres of
wetlands on the property, and incorporate them into proposed open space corridors. The
wetland replacement plans will be submitted in phases with the intent to do all replacement
onsite; and,
0 WHEREAS the Technical Evaluation Panel met
and recommended approval of the
application subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant must submit a Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants for the
created wetlands on the development site.
2. The applicant must submit an annual monitoring report to the Planning
Department for the on-site replacement until the wetland is established.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of
Rochester that the City approve the Wetland Replacement Plan presented by Pebble Creek,
LLC, subject to the above conditions.
