Purple loosestrife in this basin appears to be at a manageable level to be spot sprayed. Due to the <br />trails close proximity to the shallow marsh portion of these basin active landscaping with native <br />shallow marsh plant material could be pursued to enhance the plant community and aesthetics <br />along portions of the trail. <br />Community <br />Activity <br />Priority <br />Estimated Cost <br />Comments <br />CP -W4 <br />Control purple <br />High <br />$2,500.00 <br />Spot spray to prevent spread. <br />loosestrife <br />CP -W4 <br />Shallow Marsh <br />High <br />$1,500.00 <br />Shallow marsh plantings along <br />Plantings <br />the trail will improve the <br />aesthetics and wildlife habitat <br />values of the basin <br />Community CP -WS <br />Wet Meadow /Shallow Marsh <br />Qualitative Rank: High /Medium <br />Area: 0.5 acres <br />This is a small wet meadow that is a remnant from a large wetland that was filled at the time of <br />the ball fields' construction. Even though ball fields surround the basin it has a high plant <br />diversity that allowed it to have a High/Medium ranking. The species in this wetland include: <br />reed canary grass, cattail, green bulrush, wool grass, soft stem bulrush, swamp milkweed, <br />arrowhead, spike rush, water plantain, duckweed, smartweed, purple loosestrife and fox sedge. <br />The basin has an outlet to W4 and probably provides nutrient filtering from the ball fields before <br />entering the larger wetland. <br />Community <br />Activity <br />Priority <br />Estimated Cost <br />Comments <br />CP -W5 <br />Control purple <br />Low <br />$100.00 <br />Spot spray to prevent spread. <br />loosestrife <br />CP -W5 <br />Increase upland <br />Low <br />$200.00 <br />This would help filter nutrients <br />buffer size <br />from ball fields into wetlands. <br />City of Roseville 98 <br />Parks Natural Resource Management <br />
