Community AC -W2 <br />Shallow Marsh <br />Qualitative Rank: Medium <br />Area: 0.4 acres <br />This shallow marsh is dominated by cattail and arrowhead and has an area of wet meadow fringe <br />that is predominately reed canary grass. <br />Frisbee golf is a popular recreational activity for this park. Turf areas contributing nutrients to <br />the wetland and disc golf activities compacting soil and disturbing the vegetation have reduced <br />the ecological integrity of the wetland basin. Improvements to this wetland basin would include <br />a buffer strip to treat adjacent runoff. Signage to protect the wetland and buffer should be <br />considered around this basin to limit human disturbances. Removal of reed canary grass, an <br />invasive wetland species, could be pursued along with seeding the wetland with native wet <br />meadow species to improve the ecological integrity <br />Community <br />Activity <br />Priority <br />Estimated Cost <br />Comments <br />AC -W2 <br />Establish buffers <br />Low <br />$400.00 <br />Provide treatment from turf and <br />limit human disturbance. <br />AC -W2 <br />Install <br />Low <br />3 -signs $60.00 <br />Limit human disturbance to <br />educational <br />buffer and wetland. <br />signage <br />AC -W2 <br />Reed canary <br />Low <br />$300.00 <br />Chemical treatment and /or <br />grass control <br />prescribed burn <br />AC -W2 <br />Wet Meadow <br />Low <br />$800.00 <br />Seed following reed canary <br />Seeding and <br />grass control to improve <br />Maintenance <br />vegetative diversity and <br />ecological integrity. <br />Maintenance plan should be put <br />in place to insure native seed <br />establishment <br />City of Roseville 73 <br />Parks Natural Resource Management <br />
