I just wanted to let �ou know what I�vas able to learn about <br />the wedands shown on the sur�-e�-s �-ou pro�-ided; }-ou'll see that this information is also included in <br />the City Council staff report. <br />'1'he Rehbein Companies survey y-ou proeided (showing the house on �-our lot) suggests the <br />prescnce a wedand in the back yard, but when I talked to Tun Ky�tonen, the person who created that <br />survey, I learned that he �uas simply indicating that a �vedand �vas shown, in that general area, on a <br />survey prepared by Schoell & 1�ladson. The other, smaller-scale survey you provided appears to show <br />a wetland boundary that is considerably smaller than the one City staff used in our analysis; this is the. <br />Schoell & Madson survey referenced above. Schoell & I�ladson's Dan Nikols clarified that the <br />boundary on this survey indicates an area that was visibly wet (i.e., "wet" [space] "land"), and not a <br />delineation of a wedand comprised of the characteristic soils, hydrology, and vegetauon. From m}- <br />perspective, this information helps to resolve the question of which wedand delineation may be the <br />most appropriate in our discussion of your variance applicarion. <br />��'ith this transmittal Pve enclosed a copy of the agenda for the City Council meeting; your <br />��ariance appeal is item 11.
