In � compensation for loss of approximately 750 square feet of Category 3 wedand buffer area, miti;ation is proposed as enhancements ro the ex.isting disturbed wetland buffer area at an effective ratio oP 1.5:1. The high level of previous site disturbance and physical limits of the � proposed project site prompted the request for a reduction of the required City of Everett, SAO, Chapter 37 weUand buffer wid[h of $0 Teet for a Category 3 w�etland to 25 feet. The � request was made under Section 37.100 (D) of the Evere[t City Zoning Code. The mitigation plan proposes additional buffer enhancements totaling appmximately 5,450 square feet of Category 3 wedand buffer by selectively clearing uon-native, or highly invasive � species. Diseased, dead or stressed vegetation within the proposed enhancement area will alse '�e selectively rcmoved. A subsequent planting will consist oP native vegetation species of � kind and functional value as presendy occurring on-site. Limired regrading of I po�: ..� oP die �nhancement area may be required to ensure survival of plantings. If necessary, backtilling with topsoil ��ill be done to achieve desired finish grades. All efforts will be made to maintain current topography and drainage patterns. IGoals I The spccific goals of die propo. mitigation plan are as follows: • Compensate for the loss of approximatcly 750 square feet of Cate�ory 3 wedand � buffcr; • A total buffer enhancement of approximately 5,450 square feet which includes compensation for the proposed buffer width reduction; • Increase wildlife habitat value of the buffer and subsequendy, ihe wedand itself; • Aid in maintenance of existing wedand hydroloey and flood control management: and • Reduce exten[ of non-native vegetation covcr.
