Wetland Conservation Act (WCA)
Revised Findings and Conclusions - Kollville Estates Third Addition
(8/19/03)
The Technical Evaluation Panel has found that the Application for Replacement Plan for
the proposed construction of the Kollville Estates Third Addition in the City of
Albertville meets the requirements for approval under the 2002 WCA rules. The
Replacement Plan application has indicated that the project justification is that the site
goals of the applicant are met (i.e. residential development), proposed project meets City
planning efforts, and the proposed project would utilize existing infrastructure. The City
of Albertville has zoned the area as residential. The preferred alternative includes
approximately 74 housing units, roadways, and associated infrastructure. The applicant
has provided sequencing indicating avoidance and minimization of wetland impacts. The
applicant would like apply for sequencing flexibility.
Findings are as follows:
1) The project will entail construction of 42+ acres of agricultural land to a
residential development comprised of approximately 74 units and associated
roadways, access drives and utilities.
2) The applicant has configured the site layout in a manner that impacts an
approximately 10, 879 square foot Type 1 wetland.
3) Approximately 0.25 acres of wetland will be impacted from the development.
4) Three wetlands were delineated onsite. Two of the three wetlands were
determined by the TEP to be exempted as incidental wetland (identified as
Wetlands 1 and 2). The proposed impacted wetland was identified as Wetland 3).
5) An alternative site layout was developed that showed no wetland impact however
wetland impacts would still occur indirectly by reducing the watershed supplying
the wetland.
6) The proposed replacement in the application was to purchase credits from a
wetland bank, however the WCA requires evaluating onsite opportunities for
replacement first. The TEP recommends onsite replacement.
7) Wetland replacement will be accomplished at a ratio of 2: 1 for the replacement of
21, 800 square feet of wetland impact as require under WCA. The proposed
replacement will occur onsite. The revised replacement submitted by the applicant
will use the established wetland (identified as wetland #2). This is an incidental
wetland that has been established for approximately 2-3 years. This wetland area
appears to be viable and encompasses approximately 11, 780 square feet. This
wetland area along with proposed 16,047 square feet of proposed buffer would
provide onsite credit necessary to meet the 2:1 replacement ratio.
8) A monitoring and vegetation and exotic species control plans would need to be
developed as part of the Replacement Plan application for this wetland area and
are considered a condition of the approval of this replacement plan.

surety for the continued obligation. The form of any irrevocable letter of
credit or other surety must be approved by the City Attorney prior to its
Issuance.

portions of the Municipal Improvements, On- and Off-site Improvements,
and/or Landscaping Improvements and when it is reasonably prudent, the
Developer may request of the City that the surety be proportionately reduced
for that portion of the Municipal Improvements which have been fully
completed and payment made therefor. All such decisions shall be at the
discretion of the City Council. The City's cost for processing reduction
request(s) shall be billed to the Developer. Such cost shall be paid to the City
within thirty (30) days of the date of mailing of the billing.
6
B. The Developer may request of the City a reduction or release of any surety as
follows:
1. When another acceptable letter of credit or surety is furnished to the
City to replace a prior letter of credit or surety.
11. When all or a portion of the Municipal Improvements or the on- and
off-site improvements or the Landscaping Improvements have been
installed, the letter of credit or surety may be reduced by the dollar
amount attributable to that portion of improvements so installed,
except that the City shall retain the letter of credit or surety in the
amount of 10% of the estimated construction price of the Municipal
Improvements during the first year of the warranty period and 5% of
the estimated construction price of the Municipal Improvements
during the second year of the warranty period, and the City shall retain
the letter of credit or surety in the amount of 25% of the estimated
landscaping costs for two years from the time of the installation of said
landscaping materials.
111. As to all requests brought under this paragraph B, the City Council
shall have complete discretion whether to reduce or not to reduce said
letter of credit or surety.
C.
The costs incurred by the City in processing any reduction request shall be
billed to the Developer and paid to the City within thirty (30) days of billing.
6.
Abandonment of Proiect - Costs and Expenses. In the event Developer
should abandon the proposed development of the Subject Property, the City's
costs and expenses related to attorney's fees, professional review, drafting of
this Agreement, preparation of the feasibility report, plans and specifications,
and any other expenses undertaken in reliance upon Developer's various
representations shall be paid by said Developer within thirty (30) days after
receipt of a bill for such costs from the City. In addition, in the event the
Developer abandons the project, in whole or in part, ceases substantial field
work for more than nine (9) months, fails to provide sufficient ground-cover

In the event that said costs are not paid, the City may specially assess such
costs against the lots within Said Plat and/or take necessary legal action to
recover such costs, including attorneys fees. Developer knowingly and
voluntarily waives all rights to appeal said special assessments under
Minnesota Statutes section 429.081.
7. Developer to Pay City's Costs and Expenses. It is understood and agreed
that the Developer will reimburse the City for all reasonable administrative,
legal, planning, engineering and other professional costs incurred in the
creation, administration, enforcement or execution of this Agreement and the
approval of Said Plat, as well as all reasonable engineering expenses incurred
by the City in designing, approving, installing, and inspecting said
Improvements described above. Developer agrees to pay all such costs within
30 days of billing by the City. If Developer fails to pay said amounts, then
the City may specially assess such costs against the lots within Said Plat.
