We have the following comments in regards to engineering matters. <br /> • The sod swales north and south of the proposed home are shown at grades of 6%to 8%.We recommend <br /> that sod swales not exceed 5%because of erosion concerns.The applicant should modify the Swale design <br /> to minimize erosion potential. <br /> • Retaining walls exceeding 4-feet in height require a separate engineered design submittal for review and <br /> approval. Wall elevations were.not provided so it is unclear whether any walls heights exceed 4-feet. <br /> • The applicant has stated that drainage calculations were submitted for the neighboring property at 684 <br /> Tonkawa approximately 1 1/2 years ago.That may be true however they are not specific to this application. <br /> Separate drainage information should be submitted that is specific to this site. That information should <br /> include existing and proposed drainage area maps and drainage calculations for the one, ten and one <br /> hundred year storm events.The drainage area maps should show the total drainage areas(on and off site) <br /> affecting all areas of the property.Flows through swales on the north and south sides of the proposed home <br /> should be quantified. Pre new home rates should not exceed post new home rates. <br /> • The erosion and sediment control measures should be in place,inspected and approved by the city prior to <br /> any grading or construction activities. <br /> Please contact me at(651)604-4863 if you have any questions regarding this matter. <br /> Yours very truly, <br /> BONESTROO, ROSENE,ANDERLIK& ASSOCIATES, INC. <br /> j I <br /> Tom Kellogg <br /> Cc: Greg Gappa, City of Orono <br /> 2335 West Highway 36 ■ St. Paul, MN 55113 ■ 651-636-4600 ■ Fax: 651-636-1311 <br />
