COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Single -Family Residential; ZONING: R-1-7.5; ASSESSOR'S MAP: 381E33; TAX LOT: 1900 SUBMITTAL DATE: April 24, 2020 DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: May 11, 2020 STAFF APPROVAL DATE: June 26, 2020 DEADLINE TO APPEAL (4:30 p.m.): July 8, 2020 FINAL DECISION DATE: July 9, 2020 APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: January 9, 2022 DECISION The proposal is a request for a Limited Activities and Uses Permit to construct a slightly elevated boardwalk in a wetland as part of a rerouted trail at the Ashland Pond. The boardwalk is part of a new, rerouted trail that will connect the existing trail access at the northern terminus of Glendower St. to the established bridge at the west end of the wetland, just east of the existing trail around Ashland Pond. From the northern terminus of Glendower St., the new trail will reroute trail users to the northwest across the wetlands. Then the trail will turn to the east, roughly paralleling Ashland Creek before connecting to the existing bridge and trail around the Ashland Pond. The application describes the purpose of the trail as making a full trail connection from Glendower St. to the Ashland Pond for hikers, naturalist, bird watchers, photographs and other members of the community. The existing trail uses an access road north of Coventry Place that immediately veers to the west from the northern terminus of Glendower St. However, the access road has been problematic because of rear property line issues with some of the properties that front on Coventry Place and abut the access road. In addition, the access road does not include a public access easement. The new trail will reroute trail users to the northwest and away from access road and the homes that have rear yards facing the existing access road and trail. The application indicates the new or rerouted trail location was also selected because it creates the least impact on the wetland, the Ashland Creek corridor and banks, and existing tree locations. The subject property is slightly over 22 acres in size and is located in the Single -Family Residential Zone (R-1-7.5). The subject property is located north of Glendower St., Coventry Pl. and Oxford St. The west, north and east property lines are also the location of the Ashland Urban Growth Boundary. The property includes the confluence of Ashland Creek and Bear Creek, the Ashland Pond, a wetland system and an existing trail system. The properties to the west, north and east of the subject property are under Jackson County jurisdiction and zoned Exclusive Farm Use. Also located southeast of the subject PA-T1-2020-00107 Glendower_381E33, tax lot 1900/mh Page 1 property is the Ashland city limits and the City of Ashland wastewater treatment plan. The area south of the subject property is in the Ashland city limits and is commonly referred to as Quiet Village. This area is also zoned single-family residential and is primarily comprised of developed detached single-family homes. The City of Ashland's adopted Wetlands Resources Map identifies a possible wetland on the subject property in the area between the northern terminus of Glendower St. and Ashland Creek. AMC chapter 18.3.11 Water Resources Protection Zones (Overlays) requires a wetland delineation prepared by a qualified wetland specialist to establish the wetland location. The application includes a wetland delineation conducted and prepared by Rabe Consulting, November 2019. The wetland delineation identified a wetland that is long and linear in nature and roughly runs from east to west. The wetland is .12 acres or 5,227 square feet in size. The wetland is heavily dominated with Himalayan blackberries, but other wetland plants were exhibited in the understory including horsetail, sedges, rushes, and poison hemlock. The overstory consists overhanging trees from, adjacent areas including cottonwoods, Oregon ash and alder. The wetland destination describes an existing drainage that enters the subject property. This drainage begins just outside of the subject property from the south and cast where the terminus of the TID ditch allows for tail water to drain toward Ashland Creek. This drain water is not confined in a channel or ditch, but flows through the low portion of the subject property toward the footbridge at the west end of the study area. At the east end of the study area the drainage is less confined by topography and creates a wider wetland area. As the drainage moves to the west the topography narrows the wetland. The Limited Activities and Uses section of the Ashland Municipal Code (AMC) Water Resources Protect Zones (Overlays) 18.3.11 allows new public access and utilities including the location and construction of trails and bridges when deemed necessary to maintain a functional system and upon finding that no other reasonable alternate location outside of the Water Resource Protection Zone exists. AMC 18.3.11.060.A.3.a goes on to say that "this ordinance, the Comprehensive Plan, Transportation System Plan, adopted utility master plans, and other adopted documents shall guide this determination." Since the boardwalk is allowed as Limited Activity and Use, a Limited Activities and Uses Permit is required in accordance with AMC 18.3.11.060.D. The existing trail system to and around Ashland Pond is identified in the 2018 Trails Master Plan. (TMP). The TMP was adopted by the Ashland City Council on January 21, 200 as part of the Ashland Comprehensive Plan. As stated earlier, the need to reroute the trail arouse because of the existing location on the access road does not have a public access easement and there were property line issues with properties that abut the access road. The rerouted trail that will connect to the proposed boardwalk does not need a land use approval or permit because the construction of unpaved trails in a wetland or strearn bank protection zone is an exempt activity within a water resource protection zone in accordance with 18.3.11.050.A.2.b. In public property, the establishment of trails and related education displays is allowed in water resource protection zones. Unpaved trails can be up to 72 inches or six feet in width. The new trail will be unpaved and four to six feet in width. The proposed boardwalk crosses the eastern end of the delineated wetland for approximately 40 feet in length. The boardwalk is four feet in width. The boardwalk is slightly elevated to allow free flow of drainage water beneath it but low enough to the ground surface that it does not require a handrail. The PA-T l-2020-00107 Glendower_381E33, tax lot 19001mh Page 2 application indicates one to two cubic yards of fill material will be placed to transition from the trail surface at grade to the boardwalk. The boardwalk itself is constructed on pilings and the walking surface will be decking boards. The project includes removal of invasive plant species with the project area including existing, non- native blackberries that are described as being over ten feet in height. The blackberries are considered a fire hazard to nearby homes and also choke out and diminish the native vegetation in and around the wetland. The application includes planting of riparian understory shrubs and trees that would occur immediately after trail construction to augment the existing vegetation. The installation of the proposed boardwalk will require the removal of six small trees in the understory. The trees are described as having trunks which are laying horizontal to the ground. The application says the trees will be replaced with healthy upright trees that will provide better shading of the Ashland Creek riparian area. The proposed boardwalk is designed to minimize excavation and grading into the wetland by using pilings to support the boardwalk structure, as well as using a limited amount of fill for the transition from the trail surface to the boardwalk. The pilings will be driven into the soil with a pneumatic handheld driver to reduce the impacts of construction and excavation in the wetland. A boardwalk is proposed rather than an at -grade trail because the boardwalk minimizes disturbance to the wetland ecosystem and native wetland soils and intermittent surface water flow. In contrast, an exempt at -grade trail would compress and compact the sponge like hydrophilic soil and potentially alter the course of surface runoff. The application indicates the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and the Oregon Division of State Lands (DSL) will not require permits for the boardwalk. ACOE indicated driving the pilings and constructing the boardwalk does not require a federal permit. Similarly, DSL indicated a state permit for working in a wetland is not required because the fill material to be brought on to the site is less than 50 cubic yards. The application indicates that Ashland Parks and Recreation will perform long-term conservation and management necessary to maintain the project area including the new trail and boardwalk, possible accumulation of silt and debris, regular plan maintains and removal of invasive e species. A condition is added requiring a management plan to be submitted to the Staff Advisor. Four written comments were received regarding the application. Issues that were raised in relation to the planning application for a Limited Activities and Uses Permit to build a boardwalk in the wetland included the length of the 14-day public comment period, impacts generally to streams and wetlands from human activities and uses, disturbance to flora and fauna, impacts from construction equipment, and the cost and necessity of using 4 x 8 decking and the depth of the supporting pylons. The remaining issues are addressed by the application materials, as well as by this report. There were also general issues raised about the new trail project including the cost of the project, potential of new trail to attract mountain bikers and homeless individuals, spending public funds during the pandemic, and health hazards from mosquitos and ticks in the wetland area. As explained earlier, the installation of the trail itself does not require a Limited Activities and Uses Permit or any other planning approval. The selection of the project and the project cost are also not governed by the Ashland Land Use Ordinance, AMC Title 18 Land Use. The criteria for a Limited Activities and Uses Permit are in AMC subsection 18.3.11.060.D as PA-T 1-2020-0010'7 Glendower-3 8 IE33, tax lot 19001mh Page 3 follows, D.

Officially, only the properties within 200 feet need to be notified, but especially in these difficult times, many people from the Town of Ashland come to the pond and are therefore affected, and the very short 14-day "comment period," while no doubt established by some earlier bureaucratic decision, is absurdly short for any meaningful consideration - even assuming that they happen to notice the sign Apparently, someone in Parks got the idea some time last year to formalize a cut -through path made by walkers, connecting the dead-end spur path from the small foot bridge at the head gate at the bend in Ashland Creek on the East side of Ashland pond. They then hired a wetland consultant and got a contractor design for putting in a 40 foot long bridge. I am perplexed by the elaborate and very heavy (expensive) construction. Even if that long of a boardwalk made sense, (which it certainly does not) I have been on plenty of them and 2x6 decking has been the norm, and quite adequate. The plan calls for 4x8 pressure treated ! Someone is getting rich on this job! And sinking pylons 5 ft down or to "refusal' - presumably hard DG or bedrock? to support a MAXIMUM of 12 inches above the channel, which is a trickle even now with all the rain we have had. It could quite securely simply rest on a few landscape ties. That is of course if the idea made any sense to begin with, which it does not. My objections: 1. The cost should be made a public part of the process, and I wonder what has already been spent. No need to throw more good money after bad, as the saying goes, just because there is momentum, it can still be stopped by sensible people. 2. The "roughly constructed by visitors" existing path is fine, more fun for kids, and less inviting for mountain bikers, who would be tempted to make a loop out of it, speeding through (fun of course) but disturbing nesting birds and other wildlife in the brush there. 3. It would increase access and attractiveness for homeless people looking for a place to set up camp, or people looking for illegal drug exchanges. 4. 1 am not certain, but as the existing path is not official, I would think does not create any additional liability to the town, whereas formalizing it and raising it just a foot or two likely would.

McFarland/Ashland Parks and Recreation Commission 3-25-2020 Please include this supplemental project information along with the previously submitted project description and information. Ashland Parks and Recreation Commission (APRC) has contracted with wetland consultant Andrea Rabe, who has completed the original project description, maps, the completed wetland delineation within the project area, and engineered plans for the boardwalk section of the proposed trail (ail have been previously submitted to the Planning Dept.) Andrea informed APRC per phone conversation that she has spoken with representatives from bath the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and the Division of State Lands regarding the proposed project. She was told that neither agency would be requiring a permit for this project. Again, the ACOE representative confirmed to her that driving in pilings (with a pneumatic, handheld driver) and constructing the boardwalk section, along with the rest of the trail, does not require a permit from them. Also, she was told by the DSL representative that because the total cut and fill for the project (estimated at 1— 2 cu, yds.) is less than 50 cu. yds., the project also does not require a permit from DSL. The work for the project is designed to be performed during the in -eater work period (normally June 15 — Sept. 15, 2020) with no negative impact, disturbance or rerouting of any water resources in the entire project area including the small delineated wetland area, and in accordance of the project design to fulfill the City"s criteria for a permitted project. Andrea has also informed APRC that because no rerouting of water is required to complete this project, a DEQ drainage plan will not be required for the project. Andrea has submitted a preliminary determination request from the DSL, in order to receive jurisdictional confirmation from then, which they have confirmed receipt of and is currently under their review. She has explained the request is for procedural and confirmation purposes and is not expected to change anything about the agency permits not being required. The proposed trail route was studied by APRC personnel and the wetland consultant and considered to be the best route for the grail, with least amount of impact on the wetland resource area, within the project area, according to the site topography, wetland and creek areas, other existing partial trail (to connect to), and existing tree locations. The estimated total cut and fill for the project is only between one and two cubic yards (needed to make transition at end of boardwalk section). After constructing the boardwalk section of the trail, it would easily connect to an already existing native -soil, chipped trail which connects to the pond trail across an already existing west end crossing, and would make a full recreational trail connection from near the end of Glendower Street to Ashland Pond for trail users, including hikers, naturalists, bird watchers, photographers, and ether members of the community. PA-T1-2020-00107 RECEIVED 4124120 In addition, no large trees will need to be removed for this project. The only proposed removals for the project are 6 small native trees within the proposed boardwalk corridor. These six small trees are all in the understory. The area has an abundant native understory, and their removal would not create any loss of canopy or shade cover, which comes from the overstory. Also, the planting of native replacement trees is proposed, which can easily be planted onsite to mitigate the removal of the existing small trees, Another benefit to the project would be the significant removal of invasive species within the project area, including existing, non-native blackberries currently over ten feet tall, which are considered a fire hazard to nearby homes, as well as a nuisance because they choke out and diminish the native vegetation. APRC would be committed to perform long terra conservation, management and necessary maintenance within the project area, including the new trail, the constructed boardwalk portion, removal of any downed trees, or possible accumulation of silt or debris, and other regular maintenance needed such as pruning, chipping, etc. APRC would also be committed to maintain the removal of the invasive species in the project area. For years, APRC has already been using staff and volunteers to perform invasive removal in the nearby existing pond -trail area. Jason Minica, APRC Forestry Division Supervisor, has reviewed the project information and has stated that APRC Forestry Staff are confident that they could perform and complete the work for the project during the summer in -water work period. APRC has also conferred with both The Freshwater Trust and City of Ashland Public Works Crept., where preliminary information about the proposed APRC trail project was shared and reviewed with them. APRC received verbal confirmation from each of them that this project would not cause any expected conflict or negative impact on any of their forthcoming planned projects in the Ashland Pond property area.

Preliminary pre -field investigation showed that there are NWI and LWI mapped wetlands in the general area (Appendix A: Figure 3). This report presents the results of the Ashland Pond Trail wetland determination, which was conducted by Andrea Rabe of Rabe Consulting on November 1, 2019. The investigation occurred during end of the growing season. Andrea Rabe, a Professional Wetland Scientist, has 21 years of experience conducting wetland delineations. She has been trained in the use of the Army Corps of Engineers Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region Supplement for conducting wetland delineations. This report documents the investigation, best professional judgment and conclusions of the investigators. It should be considered a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination and used at your own risk until it has been reviewed and approved in writing by the Oregon Division of State Lands in accordance with OAR 141-090-0005 through 141-090-0055. A. Landscape Setting and Land Use The study area is 1.57 acres in a rural area in Ashland, Oregon in Jackson County (Appendix A: Figure 1, Site Location Map). The legal description of the study area is a portion of tax lot 1900 (T38S RIE Section 32 and 33). The study area is south of Ashland Creek and west of the City of Ashland Wastewater treatment plant (Appendix A: Figure 1). The site is approximately 1840 feet (ft) in elevation. The study area encompasses the project footprint and access area for the portion of the pipeline south of Ashland Creek. The study area is on a terrace north of a paved maintenance road. To the west of the study area, the terrain drops off to Ashland Creek and the outlet of Ashland Pond. The study area is just east of the eastern berm along Ashland Pond. The study area gently slopes to the north toward Ashland Creek. The study area is to the west of the City of Ashland wastewater treatment facility and to the north of a developed residential area. North of the study area is Ashland Creek and open space. B. Site Alterations Through the study area is an existing earthen path. At the west end of the existing earthen path is a wooden foot bridge crossing the existing drainage. To the south of the bridge is the drainage and to the north of the bridge is a forebay (diversion area) for Ashland Pond and Ashland Creek PA-i1-2020-00107 RECEIVED 4/24/20 An existing drainage enters the study are from the east. This drainage begins just outside of the study area south and east where the terminus of the TID ditch allows for tail water to drain toward Ashland Creek. This drain water is not confined in a channel or ditch., but flows through the low portion of the study area toward the footbridge at the west end of the study area. At the east end of the study area the drainage is less confined by topography and creates a wider wetland area. As the drainage moves to the west the topography narrows the wetland. The wetland is vegetated and heavily infested with Himalayan blackberries. C. Precipitation Data and Analysis Ashland weather station is located 3.4 miles southeast of the study area. The weather station at the airport received 0.46 inches total of precipitation from October 16 through October 31, 2019, the 14 days prior to the Celd investigation. Ashland had a relatively normal amount of precipitation at the end of the growing season. The following is based on the WETS Table for Ashland Airport.

PA-T1-2020-00107 RECEIVED 4124120 D. Methods Rabe Consulting conducted a wetland delineation within the study area, which encompasses a portion of tax 1900 (T38S R1 E Section 32 and 33). The methods to delineate the study area were straightforward considering the nature of the parcel. The study area exhibited one wetland which extended to Ashland Creek off site. The delineation was conducted in November at the end of the growing season. Due to the wet winter soil saturation was at its height for the season. The delineation was conducted on November 1, 2019 with a previous site visit on September 26, 2019, using the criteria outlined in the ACOE Manual as supplemented by the Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Regional Supplement. Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coast Region wetland data forms were used to record soils, vegetation, and hydrology data at sample plots within the study area (Appendix I3). Multiple data plots were used to test the study area for wetland presence. Plot locations were chosen based on ArcGIS maps created showing topography, aerial imagery, potential hydrology and observations of potential vegetation and hydrology during the field visit. Photo points were also taken with the plot number and direction of the photo noted. The study area boundary, photo points, and data plots were identified with a sub -meter accuracy MobileMapper 10 Ashtech GPS unit. The data from the GPS unit was post -processed using Mobile Mapping Office software. Real time accuracy was 1-2 meters, with post -processing bringing accuracy to 0.578 m horizontal error (number of satellites 7). E. Description of All Wetlands and Other Nan -Wetland Waters Upland Areas The study area consists of an upland area, as it does not exhibit wetland soils or hydrology. The upland area is elevated above the drainage wetland to the east by 2-4 for feet in elevation. The study area is significantly upslope of the Ashland Creek channel (2-8 ft). The upland area exhibits almost exclusively a grasses and Himalayan blackberry with an overstory of trees including Oregon ash, cottonwood, alder and maple. The upland area exhibits about 80-100% vegetation cover early in the growing season. PA-T1-2020-00107 RECEIVED 4/24/20 Wetland I Wetland I is a Palustrine scrub -shrub wetland by the Cowardin classification system and Depressional outflow by the HGM classification system. It is 0.120 acres in size. Although most of it is heavily dominated with Himalayan blackberries, other wetland plants were exhibited in the understory including horsetail, sedges, rushes, and poison hemlock. The overstory consists overhanging trees from adjacent areas including cottonwoods, Oregon ash and alder. F. Deviation from LWI or NWI A review of the National Wetlands Inventory Map (Appendix A - Figure 3) indicates there are wetlands to the west and north of the study area. The area to the west is Ashland Pond. To the north is Ashland Creek. The NWI indicates Ashland Creek extends south into the study area. However, on the ground observation of levees and beaver dams has rerouted the creek slightly to the north (outside of the study area). This determination does deviate from the NWI Maps, as Ashland Creek is outside of the study area and the drainage wetland is not identified on the NWI maps. LW I maps of the study area from 2007 show a hydro area within the study area. This is the riparian area associated with Ashland Creek. This delineation identifies the areas of wetland within the study area portion of the riparian area. The entire riparian area is not considered wetland, as it does not exhibit hydric soils, hydrology and wetland vegetation. LIDAR map of the study area was also viewed (Figure 5b) and did not show Ashland Creek in the study area, but instead showed it to the north of the study area. G. Mapping Methods All data plot and study area boundaries were mapped using a MobileMapper 10 Ashtech GPS unit with sub -meter accuracy. The data from the GPS unit was post -processed using Mobile Mapping Office software. Real time accuracy was 1-2 meters, with post -processing bringing accuracy to 0.578 in horizontal error (number of satellites 7). H. Results and Conclusion Within the1.57 acres of the study area, one 0.120 acre wetland was identified. PA-T1-2020-00107 RECEIVED 4/24/20 Ashland Pond 'Frail Wetland Delineation November 2019 1.
