District Initiatives for Review, Comment and Recommendations A) COVID-19 Update (Doneux) Administrator Doneux provided an update on the CRWD COVID-19 preparedness response plan. The District will allow staff to return to the office building, at their discretion on July 1, 2021, with a full return September 7, 2021. The Board of Managers will eventually be required to meet in person, as early as the next Board Meeting held on July 7, 2021. The next phase will include hosting public meetings, including CAC meetings. Ms. Willems responded that because the CAC is not legally responsible to hold in person meetings that the group could keep the option of online meetings. She mentioned that it might be useful during winter months. Discussion occurred. VI. CAC Initiatives A) CAC Annual Tour Administrator Doneux polled the group about planning for the CAC Annual Tour. Mr. Driscoll responded that there is value in doing the tour. Administrator Doneux mentioned September 8, 2021, as a viable option. The CAC agreed on September 8, 2021, at 5:00pm. More details will follow. VII. Project and Program Updates A) Como Lake 319 Grant Update (Fossum)
“Our mission is to protect, manage, and improve the water resources of the Capitol Region Watershed District.”
2
Mr. Fossum provided an update for the Como Lake 319 Grant. The agreement was reached for a fouryear renewable grant for in and around Como Lake. A good amount will go to the Como Parking Lot this year. B) Como Pavilion Parking Lot Project Update (Fossum) Mr. Fossum provided an update for the Como Pavilion Parking Lot Project. The Como Lake Management Plan (CLMP) was adopted on May 15, 2019, and the 2021-2030 Watershed Management Plan on November 4. 2020. Both plans included a capital project that installs stormwater BMPs at the Como Pavilion and Golf Clubhouse Parking Lots. The adopted 2021 CRWD Budget includes funding for the Como Parking Lot Project for an amount of $150,000. Ms. Willems asked about more details regarding the budget. Mr. Fossum responded that the City of Saint Paul has a significant amount allotted for this project and the District’s contribution will come from the 319 Grant award. Discussion Occurred. The CAC thanked Mr. Fossum for his presentation.
C) Como Golf Course Stormwater BMPs Project Update (Kelley) Mr. Kelley provided a summary and time lapse video of the Como Golf Course Stormwater BMPs Project. In 2016, CRWD was awarded a $1.76 million grant through BWSR’s Targeted Watershed Program (TWP) for work in the Como and McCarrons subwatersheds. In 2018, a feasibility study identified potential BMPs to treat stormwater runoff from the Zoo property, and CRWD contracted with Houston Engineering Inc. (HEI) to advance design on an Iron Enhanced Sand Filter Bench at the northwest Golf Course Pond, and expansion of the existing Polar Bear Infiltration Basin combined with additional underground infiltration pipes at Hole 7 near the zoo. Mr. Driscoll inquired about documenting the history of waterways. Mr. Kelley responded that yes, it is a great way to tell the story and a great way to bring people in to talk about water resources. Administrator Doneux responded that some historical information is in our Watershed Management Plan and there are plans to capture additional historical information in the future. Discussion occurred. The CAC thanked Mr. Kelley for his presentation. VIII. CAC Observer Update CAC Observer Mr. Simonet provided a summary update for the May 19, 2021, Board Meeting. Board Manager Shawn Murphy provided a summary update for the June 2, 2021, Board Meeting. IX. Discussion A. New & Old Issues B.
