1 ❑ Develop an education program that informs landowners about regulations pertaining to natural resources <br /> 2 and incentive programs for conservation. <br /> 3 ❑ When undertaking capital improvement projects, the City needs to be an example of responsible <br /> 4 development and natural resource management. <br /> 5 ❑ Develop lake management plans for each lake in the City. <br /> 6 ❑ Coordinate regular lake testing activities with local Lake Associations. <br /> 7 ❑ Pursue a Transfer of Impervious Surface Rights program for lake properties with high redevelopment <br /> 8 potential. <br /> 9 ❑ Require enhancement of the forest canopy where deforestation takes place due to development. <br /> 10 PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED ACTIONS <br /> 11 ❑ Evaluate the impervious coverage standard in each land use zone and make modifications to better <br /> 12 address water quality issues. <br /> 13 ❑ Do not count wetlands,streams,land below the ordinary high water level,slopes,or core forests as build- <br /> 14 able areas on building lots for new subdivisions. <br /> 15 ❑ Restrict development along slopes that have high erosion potential, requiring minimum setbacks from <br /> 16 slope edges. <br /> 17 ❑ Mitigate effects of development in high erosion areas by requiring the use of erosion control mats, silt <br /> 18 fences,gravel berms,and trenches during construction. <br /> 19 ❑ Restrict new water oriented accessory structures within the shoreline setback zone. <br /> 20 ❑ Regulate the use of rip rap on lakeshore properties through an ordinance ensuring its effective use. <br /> 21 ❑ Reduce surface run-off and sedimentation from roads and impervious surface in new plats by requiring <br /> 22 bioretention ponds,berms,swales,or filter strips.Stormwater management techniques must be prepared <br /> 23 by a certified engineer and shown in detail on all development proposals. <br /> 24 ❑ Encourage cluster developments and planned unit developments (PLIDs) that allow high-density <br /> 25 development, protect open space, and set performance standards to preserve and connect contiguous <br /> 26 tracts of open space and natural resources on new developments. <br /> 161 Page <br />
