ST. LUCIE GARDENS APARTMENTS
Estabishment, Maintenance and Monitorim Plan for Preserves.
including Lake Littoral Zones and Transition Banks
I.Introduction
Development of St. Lucie Gardens Apartments will yield two separate preserve areas. The first
will incorporate the existing wetland in the northeast corner of the site, plus a wetland buffer
spanning approximately 400 lineal feet of wetland perimeter. The second preserve comprises
the wet detention lake enhanced by littoral and upland/transitional plantings around its perimeter.
Details for establishment, maintenance, and monitoring of each are presented below.
II. Wetland Preserve and Buffer Establishment
Existing Wetland 1 is to be preserved and will comprise the core of Preserve Area 1, augmented
by a buffer dedicated on disturbed, un-forested ground adjoining the wetland. Establishment
steps from here include the following:
a) Herbicidally eradicate all exotic/nuisance vegetation in both wetland and buffer regions.
b) Mow or chop deadened plant material (Guinea Grass) in the buffer, and spread this across
buffer to mulch the region to retard colonization by undesirable species and maintain soil
moisture for the benefit of subsequent plantings.
c) Install native plantings in buffer periTable 1, below.
d) Install a means of irrigation in buffer, as natural rainfall is an unreliable source during the
critical establishment period for installed plants.
e) Install Preserve Area signage along the Buffer perimeter. See example sign.

III. Littoral and Upland/Transitional Establishment in Detention Lake
Lake excavation shall incorporate a slope of 1:5 (vertical: horizontal) for 10 feet horizontally
from the Control Elevation edge, prior to steepening. Above -control banks are to receive a
slope of 1:4, or shallower, See Excavation Details, by others. Upon final grading and
stabilization, the respective perimeter regions shall be further enhanced as follows:
a)Install native plantings per Tables 2 and 3, below.
b) InstaIl a means of irrigation in the Upland/Transitional zone (lake bank), as natural
rainfall is an unreliable source.
e) Install Preserve Area signage along the landward perimeter of the Upland/Transitional
planting zone. See example sign.

IV.Maintenance — Both Preserves
A.Irrigation shall be provided to terrestrial plantings at both preserve areas for a one-year
duration. Irrigation should be activated during periods when natural rainfall is absent for a
period of more than 3 days during initial 3 months, and when rainfall fails for more than 5 days
thereafter.
OR BOOK 4470 PAGE 1690
B.Eradication/treatment of undesirable vegetation across all preserve areas, including aquatic
and wetland regions, should be conducted at 3-month intervals during Year 1, at 4-month
intervals in Year 2, and twice -annually thereafter. Treatment methods may include herbicide
applications and/or physical removals via hand -pulling or other tool -assisted efforts.
V.Monitoring — Both Preserves
Post -establishment monitoring of both preserves shall include the following tasks:
a) Repeated survival tallies of all installed trees and shrubs.
b) Repeated survival tallies of installed 1-gallon and bare -root specimens in at least 8
sample plots per preserve to be established and made permanent.
c) Repeated local and panoramic photographs from at least 3 sites per preserve to be
established and made permanent,
