Landscape Architecture in Minnesota
Landscape architecture involves planning, designing, and managing outdoor spaces to achieve environmental, habitat, and aesthetic outcomes. At Midwest Wetland Improvements, our landscape architects in Minnesota work on projects that integrate natural and landscaped environments. We prioritize aspects such as land use, environmental conservation, stormwater management, and planned activities.
Landscape Design
Midwest Wetland Improvements uses landscape architectural design to solve stormwater problems and enhance sites across Minnesota. Our approach integrates trees, flora, topography, water features, site furnishings, lighting, and other natural resources to create and manage outdoor spaces in rural, suburban, and urban areas. Count on our expertise to renew and revitalize your outdoor spaces for enhanced public or private use.
Tree Inventory and Survey
We conduct comprehensive tree assessments in specific Minnesota areas, gathering data on tree species, size, condition, health, and location. These surveys provide valuable insights for urban forest management, future planning, risk assessment, and ecological studies. They also inform tree maintenance needs and strategies for tree preservation and planting.
Tree Preservation Plans
Midwest Wetland Improvements develops detailed strategies to protect and conserve existing trees during construction projects across Minnesota. Our plans include surveying all trees on the property, assessing their health and significance, and implementing measures to meet permit requirements for construction and landscape modifications.
Landscape Plans
Our Minnesota-based landscape architects create detailed landscape plans tailored to outdoor spaces. These plans include layouts, planting designs, hardscape elements, irrigation systems, and other features that enhance functionality, aesthetics, sustainability, and environmental impact. We specialize in addressing specific needs such as stormwater management, biodiversity enhancement, and recreational areas. Our team prepares plans for various projects, including ordinance-required screening, street tree plantings, and residential landscapes.
Natural Resource Management Plans
We develop comprehensive plans for the sustainable management of natural resources in Minnesota, including land, water, wildlife, and forests. These plans involve ecological evaluations and strategies for conservation and restoration to ensure long-term viability.
Green Infrastructure Design
Green infrastructure design is integral to our approach in managing stormwater effectively across Minnesota. By mimicking natural processes, we mitigate flooding, improve water quality, and enhance wildlife habitat. Our projects in Minnesota include designing green infrastructure in community parks and schools, creating spaces for outdoor classrooms, natural play areas, and more.
Residential and Community Park Design
Midwest Wetland Improvements designs outdoor spaces in Minnesota that cater to recreational and leisure needs within communities. Our designs feature amenities such as playgrounds, walking trails, sports fields, picnic areas, and green spaces, promoting social interaction, physical activity, and relaxation.
Master Planning
Our landscape architecture master plans in Minnesota prioritize projects like site redevelopment, park improvements, and new facility designs. We create comprehensive plans for private residences, commercial expansions, county parks, and educational facilities, ensuring efficient project completion through phased implementation.
Environmental Assessment Worksheets (EAW)
These documents assess the environmental impact of proposed construction projects in Minnesota. Submitted to the state Environmental Quality Board (EQB), they include public review and comment periods to gather input on potential environmental effects. Midwest Wetland Improvements ensures accurate reporting and thorough data collection, maintaining sensitive data security throughout the process.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
Midwest Wetland Improvements develops site-specific strategies across Minnesota to minimize stormwater pollution during construction and landscape design projects. Compliant with the Clean Water Act’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), our plans protect water quality by reducing pollutants in stormwater runoff.
