- ~a :l'i, . protection, resource conservation, and habitat creation and preservation, Implementation of these efforts is to include maximizing the use of permeable pavements, low water demanding plants, efficient irrigation distribution systems, and restoring portions of the open space to wilderness conditions. Management practices are to emulate the natural ecosystems that sustain mutually beneficial relationships among species. Methods of recycling matter through composting will utilize waste to release basic elements into the soils, The most sustainable management practices will include the use of natural forms of fertilizers to supplement the self-sustaining characteristics inherent in most plants. Grand Park Design Objectives, Policies And Guidelines Landform Objective TO CREATE LANDFORMS THAT FACILITATE THE ESTABLISHMENT AND GROWTH OF DESIGNATED PLANT COMMUNITIES. Landform Policy 1: Mounds and Swales. Create a coordinated landform system of north-south aligned mounds and swales. Guidelines: 1.1 The landform of all development projects within the Phase II Plan Area should conform with the landform concept illustrated in Figure 4-1. 1.2 Mound slopes should be designed to range between four and ten percent. 1.3 Swales situated between mounds should be designed to collect and filter water run-off. Landform Policy 2: Lakes and Ponds. Develop lake and pond features to sufficiently accommodate the Phase I and II flood water storage capacity requirements, provide wildlife habitat, accommodate leisure recreation activities, and create scenic amenities. Guidelines: 2.1 Expanded detention basins shall maintain a ten-foot separation between the bottom of the basin and the groundwater aquifer below, so as to provide for adequate filtering of water through the underlying unsaturated sediments to protect groundwater quality, 142 Grand Park Design Element
