runoff is proposed to be pretreated in the sediment forebay. Mr. Lee stated that the intent of the rain garden is not to tear down any trees. Questions and Comments from the Commission: — The data sheet does not show where the data points were taken. Can you provide that for the next meeting? — The Commission has occasionally allowed a plan without test pits but it is entirely at the risk of the Applicant if approved. — Given the unnatural hydrology of a raingarden, don't believe it's a one for one replacement of a no-disturb buffer zone. On a motion by Mr. Langseth and seconded by Ms. Ladd, the Commission voted 6-0 by roll call vote to continue the hearing to the July 19, 2021 meeting at the applicant's request.
