The proposed drainage plan includes improvements to the detention basin, including <br />riprap, berms on the western edge of the basin, and a retaining wall on the east side of the basin. <br />The banks of the basin will be lined with an erosion control blanket and seeded with a low <br />maintenance turf grass mix. <br /> <br />D. Lighting – Section 1325.05 Subd. 3 – Meets Requirements <br />Many existing lighting fixtures will be salvaged and reinstalled.

In addition, any entry lighting <br />under canopies shall be recessed and use a flush lens. <br /> <br />E.
