My answers to your questions are in bold. ! Hi Christine, I was following up on our phone conversation of last week regarding my request for a deck '��' building permit. You stated that I would need to delineate the wetland to proceed, I wanted to get a written :� response from the city in regards to what I need to do to gain a permit. Once I delineate the wetlands what are "` the next steps that I need to take?The wetland, once delineated will need to be approved by the watershed district. Do I have to also do a survey of the house, swimming pool,patios etc to get a permit? Yes. Most ';; projects require a survey. The Council understands your issue. In May of this year,the Council `` amended the survey requirements, listing a number of conditions,that, if inet,would exempt the °: requirement of a certified survey. (a plan would still be needed). If a project: Has an as built survey (we don't have), is outside the Shoreland Overlay district(it is), ; is not subject to the Stormwater Quality Overlay district(it isn't), i is greater than 2 acres (it is), � exceeds the required setbacks by 150% (it does,partially), and the project does not exceed 200 square feet in size(it does) A certified survey is not required. `` Since these standards are not satisfied,the survey is required. I need to know all of this in order to make a " decision to see I will invest further in this project. For the deck you propose,we require a survey. The �; information on the survey must show any wetlands. The survey we do have,from 1998,is F attached. Perhaps this will help with the costs. Specific questions I need answers to are as follow: � E '� Besides a survey to delineate the wetlands, what other surveys do I need to do for the city or wetland ; commission to provide a deck building permit? Is it just the house? Or does it need to include the pool and any `';.„ patios around the pool?Does it need to include the driveway on my house? The survey requirements are � listed on the attached sheet. It does need to include the house,the septic locations,the driveways, ; etc. Part of what we check is the amount of hard cover on the property. 3 ' What are the setbacks from wetland areas as far as building the deck? How far from the wetland can the deck i be built? The deck must be at least 35 feet from the delineated edge of the wetland. 2
