Public Works Director/City Engineer To: Michael Thompson, P.E. Assistant City Engineer CC: Steve Kummer, P.E. Civil Engineer II From: January 4, 2008 Date: Beaver Lake Townhomes Response to Resident Concerns Re: As requested in your email sent on December 24, 2007 and in reference to the City Council Meeting minutes of November 26, 2007 and December 10, 2007, following is a response to concerns regarding the Beaver Lake Estates development and the build-out of the remaining parcel along the east side of Lakewood Drive (Exhibit 1). First, I will address the bullet items in your December 24, 2007 email referring to storm water management and construction site erosion control concerns. Secondly, I will address several of the engineering-related concerns brought up by the residents during the visitor presentations in the council minutes. Storm Water Treatment Concerns Several resident comments were brought up to the council regarding the environmental impacts on Beaver Lake due to storm water runoff from the Beaver Lake Estates development. To address these environmental concerns, Ron Leaf with S.E.H. was brought in to analyze the impacts of the development based on information obtained from the non-degradation study. Mr. Leaf indicated in a technical memorandum dated December 31, 2007 that the impacts of storm water runoff into Beaver Lake will be mitigated if the Beaver Lake Estates development is in compliance with current storm water requirements from the City and Watershed. These requirements include volumetric infiltration requirements, rate control to existing conditions and maintenance of storm water treatment facilities. It is understood from Mr. Leaf that the 1-inch volumetric requirement will capture 80% of the total suspended solids in runoff and close to 70% of total phosphorus. Our current requirement for volumetric infiltration is 90% of 1-inch of runoff over all new or disturbed impervious areas assuming that the site storm water facilities can infiltrate the runoff within 96 hours. If infiltration is not possible and the developer elects to filter the storm water, then the volumetric requirement is 1.3 inches of runoff over all new or disturbed impervious surfaces. Given Mr. Leafs comments and our current storm water requirements, I based my review of Beaver Lake Estates on our current storm water requirements. My analysis of the Beaver Lake Townhomes site is based on a subwatershed plan completed by LSJ engineering dated February 18, 2002. I also analyzed the HydroCAD storm water computations dated February 19, 2002. For reference, the development was split into three areas as shown in Exhibit 2. Following are conclusions regarding the storm water management concerns and the impacts on Beaver Lake: 1 Beaver Lake Townhomes 1/4/2008 The west portion of the development is 9.0 acres with 4.05 acres of impervious area. The infiltration requirement is 13,231 cubic feet (CF). Based on the HydroCAD computations, the plan provides 22,707 CF of storage, which exceeds the requirement. The north portion of the development is 4.05 acres with 0.85 acres of impervious area. The infiltration requirement is 2,777 CF. Based on the HydroCAD computations, the plan provides 17,343 CF of storage, which exceeds the requirement. The southeast portion of the development is 10.5 acres with 2.9 acres of impervious area. The infiltration requirement is 9,474 CF. Based on the HydroCAD computations, the plan provides 9,690 CF of storage, which exceeds the requirement. The overall infiltration requirement on the development is 25,482 CF. The plan has provided 49,740 CF. This means that the storm water system on the site treats better than a 1.0-inch/24-hour storm event, thereby mitigating its impact on Beaver Creek and Beaver Lake to Watershed and City requirements. Storm Water Volume and Rate Control Concerns from residents about the amount of runoff going into Beaver Creek were raised at the council meetings particularly concerns about the flooding of the low point of Lakewood Drive at the Beaver Creek culvert crossing. Specifically, I will address the impacts to the rate and volume of runoff into Beaver Creek from the Beaver Lake Estates development. Along with the storm water treatment concerns, I analyzed the same February 2002 computations and drainage plan with regard to storm water volume and rate control. Both the volume and rate of runoff were examined and compared to undeveloped conditions for the 1-year, 10-year and 100-year/24-hour storm events. Runoff Volume The pre-development vs. post-development runoff volumes were analyzed. Most of the drainage concerns raised at the council meetings were related to flows going into Beaver Creek. Based on the volumetric infiltration capacity provided by the storm water management system within the development, the site is capable of infiltrating 1.38 acre-feet of runoff volume. This means that the first 1.38 acre-feet of runoff volume generated by a rainfall event applied to all surfaces of the development is infiltrated. The implications of this volume reduction are reflected in Table 1, which summarizes the total runoff volumes into Beaver Creek for the 1, 10 and 100- year 24-hour storm events. Table 1: Runoff Volumes Comparison for Beaver Creek Storm Event (24-hr) 1-yr (ac-ft) 10-yr (ac-ft) 100-year (ac-ft) Pre-Development 0.17 1.14 2.75 Post-Development 0.00 1.10 3.39 Runoff Rate Control Regarding runoff rate control, runoff discharge rates into Beaver Creek, Maryland Avenue, Sterling Street and Lakewood Drive were analyzed based on the HydroCAD computations provided by the developer. The pre-development vs. post-development discharge rates are summarized in Tables 2, 3 and 4. Page 2 Beaver Lake Townhomes 1/4/2008 Table 2: Pre- vs. Post-Development Runoff Comparison for the 1-yr/24hr Storm (runoff in cfs) Beaver Creek Maryland Ave Lakewood Dr Sterling St Pre-development 0.75 0.05 0.00 0.07 Post-development 0.58 0.08 0.05 0.19 Table 3: Pre- vs. Post-Development Runoff Comparison for the 10-yr/24hr Storm (runoff in cfs) Beaver Creek Maryland Ave Lakewood Dr Sterling St Pre-development 14.52 0.99 0.01 1.33 Post-development 9.24 1.15 1.35 0.93 Table 4: Pre- vs. Post-Development Runoff Comparison for the 100-yr/24hr Storm (runoff in cfs) Beaver Creek Maryland Ave Lakewood Dr Sterling St Pre-development 38.04 2.44 0.25 3.67 Post-development 23.43 2.74 3.82 2.36 Table 5 summarizes the total discharge rates for the overall site. Table 5: Overall Pre- vs. Post Development Runoff Comparison for 24-hour Storms (cfs) (runoff rate in cfs) Pre-Development Post-Development 1-yr 0.87 0.90 10-yr 16.85 12.65 100-yr 44.40 32.28 Conclusions Storm Water Volume and Rate Control The following conclusions have been made based on the storm water computations and summary provided above. Comparing the pre-development condition to the post-development condition, 1) Beaver Creek experiences a reduction in runoff volume for the 1-year and 10-year storm events and a 23% increase in runoff volume for the 100-year storm event for the post-development condition. (It should be noted that the City and Watershed volume requirement is infiltration of the first inch of runoff from all proposed impervious surfaces. It is not required that storm water runoff volumes for the 1-year, 10-year and 100-year storm events meet pre-development conditions.) 2) Beaver Creek experiences an overall reduction in runoff rates for the 1, 10 and 100- year/24-hour storm events for the post-development condition. 3) Overall runoff rates from the site in the post-development condition are reduced. 4) The overall runoff volume from the development is reduced for the 1-year and 10-year storm events and increased for the 100-year storm event compared to the pre- development condition. Page 3 Beaver Lake Townhomes 1/4/2008 5) Post-development runoff rates to Maryland Avenue and Lakewood Drive sustain a significant increase for all rainfall events, especially to Lakewood Drive. From the standpoint of City requirements, it is recommended that the developer be required to mitigate the increased flow into Lakewood Drive to existing conditions with the use of infiltration trenches and rain gardens to capture this flow. Depending on how much of the flow that is mitigated, the developer will be required to submit computations indicating that the low-point inlets at the Beaver Creek culvert will be able to handle the additional flows. With regard to resident concerns about flooding at the low point Beaver Creek culvert crossing in Lakewood Drive, Ramsey County maintenance staff have indicated that the last complaint from area residents received about flooding was in 2000, when the level of Beaver Lake was high enough to cause a backup into the culvert and potential flooding of private property in the area. City staff are working with Ramsey County on this issue and will be requiring the developer to install measures to mitigate the impact of the Beaver Lake Estates development on Lakewood Drive. As a side note to the amount of runoff flowing into Beaver Creek, the 48-inch outlet under Lakewood Drive drains a very large regional watershed. As we have made overall improvements to the creek flow in the area of the Beaver Lake Estates development, the City is also making improvements upstream to storm water treatment and volume control upstream of the development. Most recently, volume reduction and rate control requirements have been attained on the Ferndale-Geraniam Area Street Improvement project by increased ponding near the Ferndale/Maryland intersection and the residential rain water garden program (refer to the December 31, 2007 report from Ron Leaf of S.E.H. for more information). Local Street Drainage Issues Bill Schreiner, the Beaver Creek Estates board president, had indicated in his report to the Council on December 10, 2007 that there are problems with localized street flooding and that catch basins are improperly located away from the low points within the street. During a field visit on January 2, 2008, I had a City staff surveyor take some elevation shots of several catch basins at low points along Sterling Circle and Beaver Creek Parkway. Along Beaver Creek Parkway, elevation shots, taken within a 30-foot radius of a low-point catch basin in front of 1118 Beaver Creek Parkway, indicate that the catch basin grate is lower than surrounding grades and that positive drainage toward the catch basins is present. Similarly, shots taken at a catch basin in front of 1102 Beaver Creek Parkway and a pair of low-point catch basins in front of 1131 Sterling Circle indicate positive drainage toward the catch basins as well. I am not completely clear regarding Mr. Schreiners comments about the low point catch basins or street flooding within the development. One possible scenario explaining localized flooding in Beaver Creek Parkway is the current size of the pond along the west side of Beaver Creek Parkway (refer to Exhibit 2). Based on a cursory visual inspection, this pond does not appear to be excavated to its final contours and is not yet built to capacity. Due to the reduced ponding storage, the catch basins back up in moderate rainfall events causing localized street flooding. The developer will be required to clean out the existing ponding basin or rough-excavate for more pond storage until the new buildings are built. It is possible that weeds and sediment may be clogging the storm sewer lines, as well. Cleaning and jetting of the storm sewer system will be required of the developer and accomplished in 2008. Page 4 Beaver Lake Townhomes 1/4/2008 Construction Site Erosion Control and Impacts to the Open Space Residents had expressed concern about dirt tracking and messes left by contractors hauling dirt rd from a stockpile next to Beaver Creek Parkway. During the week of December 3, 2007, construction crews with Arnt Construction, the developers earthwork contractor, removed some dirt from an on-site stockpile. Tracking of dirt on Beaver Creek Parkway did occur and the th contractor was ordered to clean up the tracking as a result. On Tuesday, December 11, 2007, I visited the site and the tracking had been cleaned up. As well, straw bales and wattles have been placed on the downstream side of the stockpile. Rock entrances to the site are required to be installed when the apartment buildings are constructed. The contractor is required to temporarily stabilize the stockpile prior to full spring thaw. If the contractor hauls more dirt off the site, they have been put on notice to clean up any dirt tracking immediately after they are finished hauling. Related to disturbances of the City Open Space and the Beaver Creek buffer, the construction site is on the west side of Beaver Creek Parkway and is not adjacent to the open space buffer designated along Beaver Creek. Therefore, no grading or ground disturbance activities will occur as part of the phase of construction along the east side of Lakewood Drive. Inlet protection will be required on the outlet from the ponding area west of Beaver Creek Parkway before the site is disturbed to prevent migration of sediment into Beaver Creek. Silt fence has already been installed along the periphery of the site, including the west side of Beaver Creek Parkway. Conditions of the CUP, Approvals and Inspections Attached to this memorandum are the conditions of the CUP approval from the council meeting minutes on May 28, 2002. Since a City inspector was involved with the inspections of the sewer replacement along Beaver Creek, they also provided information regarding the construction of the private development portion of the project. The inspector indicated that there were some corrections done to site construction erosion control measures at the time due to an inquiry from the watershed district on June 25, 2003. Also, the inspector indicated that there was some construction debris and leftover silt fence on the site that was cleaned up by the contractor. th On December 14, 2007, I conducted a site walk-through. Due to the snow cover, a thorough investigation of the CUP requirements could not be conducted. Only those things visible above the snow could be seen at the time. Following are several items that need to be addressed that are requirements of the CUP: A resident near the trail connection off Beaver Creek Parkway indicated that some fencing needs to be installed around the bike trail. The CUP requires that a double-rail split-rail wood fencing be installed around the trail. A requirement of the CUP is that the developer will guarantee that the developer complete all grading for overall site drainage and complete all public improvements. It appears that all of the storm water facilities have been installed and that public improvements have been completed. However, pond grading along the west side of Beaver Creek Parkway and also at the ponding area near Sterling circle need to be cleaned out and excavated to their full capacity. Another requirement of the CUP indicates that the drainage plan will ensure there is no increase in the rate of storm water runoff leaving the site above the pre-development levels. Overall, the site decreases the amount of runoff leaving the site. The City will require the developer to mitigate their flows to Lakewood Drive and Maryland Avenue and to provide computations as mentioned in the Storm Water Volume and Rate Control section of this report. Page 5 Beaver Lake Townhomes 1/4/2008 According to the plans, it appears that the requirements of the CUP have been met. At this point, a field investigation did not turn up any more violations of the CUP than stated above. A more thorough investigation of the site will need to be conducted after the snow melts and the site becomes more visible. It should be noted that the site is not fully built-out and that the developer intends to complete any other punch-list items with the construction of the other phases of the development. Given the amount of resident controversy related to this site, however, it would most prudent to have the developer complete those CUP requirements within areas of the site that are already built-out. Escrow There is only one record of escrow that I could find regarding this site and that is a $5,000 erosion control escrow taken from Arnt Construction for the overall grading of the site. Community development may have other escrows or letters of credit for this site and will be addressed in their report. Slopes Mr. Schreiner had indicated in his report to the Council on December 10, 2007 an issue regarding the slopes and grading of the site near the single family townhomes along the east side of Beaver Creek Parkway. He indicated that some of the slopes between the homes exceed 3:1 and approach 1:1. The development agreement makes specific reference to slopes greater than 3:1 in that the developer shall prepare and implement a slope stabilization and planting plan. Neither the developers agreement nor the CUP specifically prohibits slopes greater than 3:1. th I conducted a site visit on December 14, 2007 and measured slopes between seven of the townhome units along the east side of Beaver Creek Parkway. Slope measurements were in the range of 24% to 30%, less than a 3:1 (33%) slope. Other slopes between the homes and around the creek appeared to be similar to the slopes that were measured. Mary DeStasio, a resident who lives near the bike trail between 1118 and 1128 Beaver Creek Parkway, indicated concerns about the incline of the trail down to the creek bridge from the street. In looking at the plan and measuring the trail slope in the field, the trail does not exceed a 5% slope in this area, which is in line with ADA standards for trails and walks. Traffic Control and Visibility A concern at the council meeting was raised about the amount of traffic leaving the development and visibility at the driveway entrance onto Lakewood Drive. It is my understanding that a study was conducted to locate this driveway entrance at the high point of Lakewood Drive. From an engineering standpoint, this provides visibility in both directions when pulling out onto Lakewood Drive. During my site visit, I was concerned about the embankments near the driveway. The developer will be required to grade out this obstruction within the sight triangle of the intersection. I hope that the analysis provided in this memorandum is helpful and has the information that you need. Should you need any other information, let me know and I can include it or we can set up a meeting time to discuss. Page 6 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM TO: Steve Kummer, City of Maplewood FROM: Ron Leaf, SEH DATE: December 31, 2007 RE: Beaver Lake Townhomes Area - Storm Water Assessment SEH No. A-MAPLE SEH staff has evaluated the existing information for Beaver Lake and the Beaver Lake subwatershed from the Ramsey-Washington-Metro Watershed District (RWMWD) Watershed Management Plan (WMP) completed in 2006 and the City of Maplewoods Loading Assessment and Nondegradation Report dated November 30, 2007. These documents have the most recent summary data relating to potential water quality and flooding issues present or anticipated in the area. Based on our review, we see no significant differences in the potential water quality or water quantity impacts relative to the proposed development scenario (townhomes) on the undeveloped portion of the Beaver Lake Townhomes site, provided the development follows the current design standards of the City and Ramsey-Washington-Metro Watershed District. RWMWD Plan The RWMWD WMP identifies the Beaver Lake subwatershed as almost fully developed, with a few noted exceptions. The Plan describes the current water quality of Beaver Lake as not meeting various goals and standards and states that the lake is currently listed as impaired for excess nutrients (total phosphorus). P8 modeling completed in the watershed and in-lake response modeling show that the lake is subject to both internal and external loads. Internal loading of phosphorus could contribute as much as 25% of the annual load to Beaver Lake. Internal loads result from release of phosphorus from lake sediments and from the die-off of curly-leaf pondweed. External loading to the lake comes from both treated areas (where some storm water ponds or treatment devices are present) and untreated areas (storm water discharges directly to the lake without treatment). Approximately 34% of the annual phosphorus load results from the direct drainage area that is not treated. The WMP concludes that meeting preliminary water quality goals is not feasible without drastic treatment measures like in-lake alum treatment of the lake sediments. Therefore, the focus of the RWMWD Plan is to implement infiltration practices in the areas directly tributary to Beaver Lake. The RWMWD WMP states that there are no known flooding or water quantity issues in the subwatershed. Table 1.B.9-2 in the Plan gives a 100-year high water level for Beaver Lake as 951.4 (drainage area BL-203) and for the area in the immediate southeast corner of Lakewood and Maryland as 956.1 (BL-125). Area BL-125 has a flood storage capacity of 4.5 acre-feet. Any development project would need to verify that the minimum building elevations adjacent to this area meet City and RWMWD standards and that the 956.1 elevation is not increased. Steve Kummer Maplewood, MN Beaver Lake Townhomes Area Page 2 December 31, 2007 Nondegradation Plan The Nondegradation Report results indicate an estimated 8% increase in the level of impervious coverage in the watershed between 2005 and 2020. This results in a reduction in TSS loading and very small increase in the loading of total phosphorus (TP) for the Beaver Lake subwatershed. Because the study does not account for improvements in street sweeping or reduced loading from the statewide phosphorus fertilizer restrictions, these results are considered conservative. The assumptions used in the analysis incorporated future or planned treatment systems where known. For example, in drainage area BL-120S, there will be an estimated reduction in TP of 6.44 pounds annually due to the installation of infiltration and filtration practices installed as part of the Citys street reconstruction project in the Ferndale-Geranium area. Throughout the Beaver Lake subwatershed, there are several drainage areas that show slight increase and several that show slight decreases in TP loads. In any of these areas, additional loading reductions would also be realized as any future development occurs in the watershed areas where there currently are no storm water treatment practices. Beaver Lake Townhomes Area Related to the undeveloped portion of the Beaver Lake Townhomes site, the application of the Citys (and RWMWD) infiltration standards to the project will mitigate any proposed new impervious surfaces. The impervious coverage for Townhomes on the property would likely be higher than for a single family home project. However, the treatment volume required will also be higher and is directly related to the level of impervious surface coverage. The developer may also be eligible for obtaining cost-share funding from the RWMWD to install a higher level of treatment than what is required. The RWMWD may be interested in working directly with the owner to see what could be done at the property and what level of funding may be available. Summary From a water quality perspective, any additional treatment systems that are installed according to City and RWMWD standards in the Beaver Lake subwatershed, will help to reduce the surface water loadings of TP to Beaver Lake. We see no significant difference in the effects on Beaver Lake between a single family use and a townhome land use, provided either project would install the required level of volume reduction practices. From a water quantity perspective, the RWMWD plan states that there were no identified water quantity (i.e., flooding) issues in the subwatershed. The current 100-year high water level in the southeast corner of Lakewood and Maryland is reported as 956.1. This elevation must not be increased and any planned loss in the flood storage capacity in the area must be mitigated to maintain this elevation. Based on preliminary discussion with City staff, there may be some minor flooding issues related to a portion of Lakewood Drive in this area. If there are potential issues based on City staff or resident input, these issues can be reviewed in more detail as part of the Citys Surface Water Management Plan Update scheduled in 2008. We do not anticipate that there will be any significant difference between the single family homes project or a townhome project, provided both install the required volume control and rate control storm water practices.
