Subject: NSP Fly Ash Landfill w Landscaping
Kris -
I have reviewed the plans which the city of Oak Park Heights has
received to date for the NSP Fly Ash Landfill. Since the pole building
will be moved to a less prominent location on the site, which will be
screened in part by topography, it does not appear that NSP will need to
put in landscaping to screen that structure. Regarding other landscaping
for the site, I would like to see planting detail for the long berm which
runs NE -SW through the site and which will serve a screening function for
the still active portion of the landfill. 1 would also like a list of the
plant species which were seeded in the "prairie" area in the SE portion of
the site. Plans for other site landscaping would also be helpful.
