Wetlands delineation delayed; Corps visit targeted for spring

At the February meeting staff updated the Poquoson Economic Development Authority that the wetlands delineation for property owned across the street from EDA holdings is delayed due to current ground conditions.

An unidentified staff member told the board that field work is on hold "we're waiting for the weather to kind of relieve itself" and that the city will coordinate with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to schedule a site visit in April with the goal of completing the delineation prior to summer. Board members noted seasonal constraints for wetland surveys and discussed attempting to set a visit when conditions are fairer.

No formal action was taken; staff said it will continue to coordinate with the consultant and the Corps and return with an update once a site visit is scheduled.
