(A) Air quality. Any land use in the North Shore development that produces emissions to the air shall, at a minimum demonstrate compliance with all state air quality standards, as evidenced by the issuance of any permits required for their emissions by the state.
(B) Water quality and watershed protection. Land uses in the North Shore Development Planned District shall be subject to any applicable requirements of the city source protection zones.
(C) Sewage disposal.
(1) Connection to the city sewer is required for all land uses, except as otherwise permitted by the city’s Waste Treatment Department under applicable provisions of the city code.
(2) If permitted by the City Council, following a recommendation by the city’s Waste Treatment Department and city’s Culinary Water Department, alternative sewage disposal systems shall be sited and constructed in accordance with applicable health regulations and standards of the city, the county and the state.
(D) Revegetation/erosion protection/runoff control. To the extent possible, plans for the development of the North Shore Development and actual construction of infrastructure and land uses shall provide for the preservation of existing vegetation; shall provide for appropriate, prompt revegetation or erosion protection measures; and shall provide for surface water runoff control in accordance with the city’s Public Works Standards and Technical Specifications or modifications thereto granted pursuant to the procedure for such modifications.
(1) Storm water created by the development shall be detained on the property and released according to standard engineering calculations and practices, except as such practices may be modified for the North Shore Development. Existing natural storm water drainage shall be allowed to follow the current natural drainage patterns. due to the unique setting and rural environment of the property, storm water management may be accomplished through the use of roadside swales and permeable basins allowing storm water to infiltrate into the ground. Design and construction of such storm water management features shall be subject to restrictions of the city’s source protection zones, if applicable.
(2) All developments shall minimize the area disturbed by construction activities at any given time.
(3) Buildings shall not be located on soils with severe limitations for any of the proposed uses, unless fully mitigated by appropriate design and construction techniques. Limitations on development may be due to any of a number of factors including the depth to bedrock or a water table, soil permeability, the soil’s propensity to shrink and swell and other factors.
