RE: Albertville Outlet Mall, Albertville Minnesota
Dear Mr. Gugig:
I understand that you are the contact person for concerns regarding the Albertville Outlet Mall. I
am writing to inquire about the status of concerns expressed in my letter to the City of
Albertville dated February 10, 2005 (copy attached). The material within the wetland buffer area
that was mentioned in my letter still has not been removed.
We have also not received any monitoring reports for wetland permit applications since prior to
my previous letter. It is my understanding that monitoring was completed in 2003 and 2004. I
have requested a copy of these reports from Svoboda Ecological Resources. Annual monitoring
is required for five years unless approved by the Technical Evaluation Panel. This can be
extended if the conditions of the permit have not been fulfilled. With the current condition of the
buffer, this is likely to be extended. Furthermore, enforcement action can be taken if the
conditions are not met. Due to the length of time that this issue has remained unresolved, I am
providing a copy of this letter to the DNR Wetland Enforcement Officer.
Please contact me within 10 days of the date of this letter and provide an update as to the status
of these matters.
Sincerely,
Colleen Allen

RE: Albertville Premium Outlet Mall
Generator Site Work
Revised Site Plan Review
Albertville, Minnesota
SEH No. A-ALBEV0501.00 D72
I have reviewed the revised site and grading plan for two generator facilities at the Outlet Mall. The
proposed site is on the northwest comer of the property. I have the following comments:
1. Sloping of the landscape berm on the east side of the generators cannot exceed 3:1.
2. Erosion control devices (wood fiber blanket, disc -anchored mulch, biodegradable mat, etc.) are
required to stabilize the graded slope.
Comments from my 9/30/04 review memo to Larry Kruse have been addressed. The site plan is approved
subject to the conditions outlined above.
Please call me at 651.490.2147 if you have questions.

RE: OUTLETS AT ALBERTVILLE
Dear Ms. Goeb:
Construction of sanitary sewer and watermain for the project site is complete. We understand all
required tests have been conducted, witnessed by City Representatives and found acceptable. All
corrective (punch list) work has been completed.
On behalf of Chelsea Property Group, Inc., it is therefore appropriate to request a formal acceptance
of the sanitary sewer and watermain for purposes of beginning the required warranty period with all
of provisions required therein. Record plans are being prepared and will be sent to the City when
completed.
Should you have any questions, please call me.

Dear Mr. Kruse:
RE: Albertville Outlet Mall
The Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) met today to discuss the buffer area on the west side of
the outlet mall. As you are aware, the buffer area has very steep slopes and consists of spoil
material that was not a part of the approved plan. Buffer areas function to provide infiltration,
wildlife habitat and water quality improvement by reducing pollutant loads. With the current
conditions of the site, the TEP has determined that this area does not provide these functions to
accepted buffer standards. The TEP recommends that this material be removed and the site be
graded to match the approved elevations in the plan and reseeded to -prevent erosion.
Additionally, the TEP would like to bring to your attention that fill material has been placed
within the mitigation area on the south west comer of the mall during a 2003 ditch clean out. It
is the understanding of the TEP that the material was placed here at the directionof the city.
This material must be removed from the wetland mitigation area.
d
One further item discussed was a ditch constriction that was a part of the approved plan for the
outlet mall. This constriction has been removed and the TEP would like it to be put back or an
explanation be provided. Thank you for your attention to these matters.
S' cerely,
Colleen Allen

We have reviewed a preliminary plan (sheet 6 of 9) for the above mentioned development, as
prepared by John Oliver & Associates, Inc. We have reviewed the concept plan with regard to
access/right-of-way issues for County State Aid Highway 19 only. Aspects of internal
drainage, street improvements, and grading internal to the development should be reviewed by
the City Engineer for conformance to city standards. We offer the following comments.
1) A right-of-way dedication of 70 feet from the center of CSAH 19 is required in
this area.
2) The proposed development will need to maintain existing drainage rates (i.e., the rate
at which storm water is discharged from the site must not increase). The City or
project developer will need to submit before/after hydraulic computations for both the
10 and 100 year rainfall events verifying that all existing drainage patterns and systems
affecting Wright County Highway right-of-way will be perpetuated.
3) An access permit will be required for the new access to CSAH 19. A right -turn lane
and will be required to be constructed on CSAH 19 for the access, as well as traffic
signal system revisions. The geometric design for the revisions to the existing traffic
signal system should be coordinated with the City's engineer (S.E.H., Inc.) to make
sure lanes line up and the mast arm on the east side of CSAH 19 is out of the way of
the radius for the new right turn lane. Construction of the required turnlane and traffic
signal system revisions will be a condition of access to CSAH 19. Concrete curb &
gutter from the development should end at the CSAH 19 right of way line. Specific
layouts, highway sections, and other requirements for the turnlane will be identified in
the special conditions of the approved access permit. Please forward a completed
driveway permit application, and fee, to Bruce Leinonen, Permit Technician, of our
office.

4) All existing field entrances along CSAH 19 within the development frontage, shall be
removed, as a condition of the access permit.
5) A utility permit will be required for any utility work within the CSAH 19 right-of-way.
This will cover any sanitary, watermain, or storm sewer work within the CSAH 19
right-of-way. Specific requirements will be determined when a plan and utility permit
application are submitted to Bruce Leinonen, Permit Technician, of our office.
6) The northerly access to CSAH 19 for the development shall be a right in only
movement. A right turn lane will be required to be constructed for the northerly access
also. Any signing for this access that is proposed to be located within the CSAH 19
right-of-way must be approved by Bill Cordell, Senior Traffic Technician, of our
office.
We trust that this information is helpful to you and if you have any questions or concerns
regarding the above comments please call me at 763-682-7387.

l have reviewed the site plans dated November 4, 2002, and have the following comments:
Sheet 2
1, The exact geometries of the access road intersection with CSAH 19 cannot be determined
until a detail design of the intersection has been completed. For now, the intersection design
is close and is tentatively approved. The developer shall be made aware that modifications to
the access road may be required as the detail design of the intersection is completed.
2, A 30-foot-wide drainage easement shall be provided along the drainage ditch at the south end
of the development. The easement width shall be measured from the center of the existing
ditch.
3. C=eral note number 6 shall be revised to require the disturbed area to be seeded within 72
hours of completing rough grading.
4. The seed mix for the wetland mitigation area and rain garden shall be specified on the
landscape plan.
5. A sidewalk and crosswalk are planned on the north side of the CSAH 19 intersection. A
sidewalk will need to be added to accommodate pedestrian traffic to the existing Outlet Mall,
Sheet 3
1. The fire hydrant spacing is adequate. However, the fire department requires a fire hydrant to
be adjacent to the building sprinkler connection. The developer, building; architect and
mechanical engineer shall obtain written fire department approval for the fire Hydrant
location.
2. The plan indicates sewer and water main crossings in the middle of the intersection of CSAH
19 and the Outlet Mall. This construction would cause considerable disruption to traffic in

the area. It is recommended that the sewer and water main crossings be shifted south of the
i atersection.
I The water main shall be revised in the northwest, nottheast, and southwest corner to provide
for future extension of the water maim, see the attached sketch.
4. The proposed location of the sanitary sewer within the CSAH 19 right bf--way and only ]0
feet from the edge of pavement does create construction challenges, would be expensive to
install, and will require Wright County approval. While the sanitary sewer design works, it
would be beneficial for the developer, Wright County, and the City to work with the Towne
Lakes developer to find an acceptable corridor across Towne Lakes to connect the sanitary
sewer to the trunk main to the north, see the attached sketch.
Sheet 6
1. Considering the subgrade soils that are typical in Albertville, construction of the proposed
parking lot pavement section will be difficult. Parking lot construction for phase 2 of the
Outlet mail, which had a similar pavement design, was difficult and time consuming, it is
suggested that the pavement section be redesigned
Everyone should be aware of the potential upgrade of CSAH 19. This upgrade may have some
minor effects on the Outlet Mall development. The attached sketch shows how the CSAH 19
upgrade would fit with the Outlet Mal development.
.Please call me with any questions or comments.

RE: Review of storm water management practices: Outlets at Albertville - Phase III
SEH No. A-ALBEV0308.00
Storm Water (Lot Coverage Credits)
A review of the site plans submitted to the City of Albertville by JMJ Properties, Inc., dated August 12,
2002, for the Outlets at Albertville, Phase II, determined that the impervious lot coverage for the site is
approximately 71.4%. This exceeds the 50% effective lot coverage threshold allowed under the City's
Shoreland Ordinance. Based on our review of the 16.46-acre site, low impact development (LID)
practices and/or other storm water BMPs that account for a total of 4450 cu. feet of runoff (for a 0.5-inch
rainfall event) are needed to reduce the effective lot coverage to 50%. This assume the actual lot
coverage stays at 71.4%.
Both infiltration and non -infiltration methods could be applicable to the site. The Wright County Soil
Survey Manual defines the subsurface soils as being of the Haden, Dundas, and Nessel soil series. These
underlying soils are associated with permeability rates ranging from 0.2-0.63 inches per hour.
LID practices applicable to this site include depressed parking islands in the southern portion of the south
parking area. Other options include grated -infiltration trenches, rain gardens and/or a grass swale along
the southern portion of the property. For example, a rain garden located at the southwestern edge of the
site, with a surface area of 2000 sq. feet and a depth of one foot, would treat approximately 2000 cu. feet
of runoff from the southwest parking lot. Drainage from the lot could be conveyed to the rain garden
through a curb -cut section at the south end of the lot. Runoff from larger events would be directed back
into the storm sewer system or into a grass swale. Either option would ultimately discharge into the
detention pond located on the east side of the site.
The following is a summary of approximate runoff credits for various storm water options at the site:
Credit Needed = 4450 cu.ft.
Rain garden south of Southwest parking lot (curb cut from lot) 2000 cu.ft.
Approx. 3200 sq.ft. x 1.5 ft deep
Rain garden northwest corner of Bldg. D 750 cu.ft.
(Approx. 1200 sq.ft. x 1.5 feet deep)
Grass swale along south/southwest property boundary 1250 cu.ft.
(Approx. 250 feet x 1 foot deep - curb cuts from parking lot)
Infiltration trench(es) between parking islands throughout site
located to capture sheet flow (Approx. 50 sq.ft. x 1.5 ft deep each)
Depressed parking lot islands - bio-retention areas
(Approx. 100 sq. ft x 1.5 ft. deep each)
100 cu.ft. each
60 cu.ft. each

Wetlands
The use of rain gardens as credit for wetland mitigation is possible. However, the rain garden design
would have to meet wetland criteria and not receive direct storm water discharge without pretreatment.
Essentially, they would need to create a two -cell storm water treatment system with the second cell being
the rain garden. The pretreatment would have to be designed and constructed to meet 50 % phosphorus
removal as required by WCA. Additionally, .the rain garden would need to be designed for a maximum
24-inch rise in water level for the 10-year critical storm event and the design standards for a replacement
wetlands must be followed. The goal would have to be a palustrine emergent wetland. In reality, it does
not appear that the developer would be able to meet these requirements within the confines of the site,
especially considering the current site layout.
The avoidance of wetland impacts should also be evaluated further. If the site design involved moving or
rearranging a building layout in order to avoid wetland impacts the developer may not have to provide the
additional compensation (i.e., approximately 0.3 acres) since there would be zero or reduced impacts to
one or more of the wetlands. Additionally, credit could be granted for the vegetative restoration of the
wetlands avoided if additional credit is needed. Is all of the parking shown on the site plan necessary to
meet City requirements? Can they reduce the number of parking spaces? Another possibility is for the site
design to have the replacement wetland in the south portion of the site, move the longer building to the
east and avoid wetland impacts. There must be enough watershed to support the avoided wetland as it
currently exists. Also why couldn't the buildings be two story to avoid wetland impacts?
