It is anticipated that creation of a green corridor through the AUAR study area will provide habitat elements <br />for turtles, birds and other wildlife. This corridor will provide an important link to the Rice Creek corridor and <br />the County’s adjacent wildlife corridor. ThecCity may also consider building guidelines that minimize the <br />amount or type of glass used on multi-story building to minimize bird strikes. <br />The development of the AUAR study area will not impact existing bald eagle or osprey nesting sites, or <br />prevent nesting activity. <br />d.I,,, <br />DENTIFY MEASURES THAT WILL BE TAKEN TO AVOID MINIMIZE OR MITIGATE ADVERSE EFFECTS TO FISH <br />,,. <br />WILDLIFE PLANT COMMUNITIES AND SENSITIVE ECOLOGICAL RESOURCES <br />Measures to minimize and avoid impacts to Blanding’s turtle will be required for all development plan <br />approvals. Specific measures are outlined in the draft mitigation plan. <br />14.HP <br />ISTORICROPERTIES <br />D,,/ <br />ESCRIBE ANY HISTORIC STRUCTURES ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES ANDOR TRADITIONAL CULTURAL PROPERTIES ON <br />.I:1),2),3) <br />OR IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE SITENCLUDE HISTORIC DESIGNATIONS KNOWN ARTIFACT AREAS AND <br />.ASHPO <br />ARCHITECTURAL FEATURESTTACH LETTER RECEIVED FROM THETATEISTORICRESERVATIONFFICE <br />(SHPO).D <br />ISCUSS ANY ANTICIPATED EFFECTS TO HISTORIC PROPERTIES DURING PROJECT CONSTRUCTION AND <br />.I,, <br />OPERATIONDENTIFY MEASURES THAT WILL BE TAKEN TO AVOID MINIMIZE OR MITIGATE ADVERSE EFFECTS TO <br />. <br />HISTORIC PROPERTIES <br />SHPO conducted a search of the Minnesota Archaeological Inventory and Historic Structures Inventory for <br />Sections 9 and 16 of Township 30, Range 23 in Arden Hills (dated December 31, 2013) (seeAppendixBA). <br />The sites listed inTable 14-1 are those that are located in quarter sections that intersect with the AUAR study <br />area. This does not necessarily mean that the identified sites are within the AUAR study area, because specific <br />locations are not identified in the inventory. All sites possibly within the AUAR study area, based on the quarter <br />section identifications, are listed below and were evaluated for the purposes of this analysis. <br />Table 14-1.
