Mr. Schwartz further <br />advised that staff was cognizant of Ml'CA regulations and best <br />management practices, and indicated that the soil types in the <br />biofiltration area were types B and C, and represented "engineered <br />soils" and would need to meet filtration requirements. <br />�� City Attorney Anderson fully agreed with Mr. Schwartz's comments <br />�� on the road layout and design, as previously addressed as an issue of <br />�� adj acent neighbors during Preliminary Plat approval. <br />�� �a <br />�f <br />�� <br />�� <br />�� <br />�1 <br />�� <br />�� <br />�� <br />:�;� <br />��} <br />�� <br />�8 <br />Councilmember Roe clarified requested Council action on Final Plat <br />approval including approval of the public improvement contract and <br />whether the contract spoke to design of the biofiltration trenches or if <br />that was a City staff and City engineer determination as part of the <br />process addressed in the contract. <br />Mr. Schwartz advised that the public improvement contract spoke to <br />the biofiltration trenches but that their final design and location of <br />easements remained pending until engineering designs were negoti- <br />ated and completed in accordance with City Code and approved by <br />the City Engineer. <br />
