Your application is incomplete. The following items must be submitted or revised in order for your application to be considered complete and for the plan review to continue: 1. Certificate of Survey. Although a survey dated 3-27-14 was submitted, it is not to scale. Please provide two copies of an updated, full size certificate of survey which meets all of the City's survey standards (enclosed) including City Engineer,Jesse Struve's comments enclosed and the following: a. Retaining walls. Walls must be setback 5'from the property line. Please redesign the retaining walls and show on the updated survey. b. Driveway Slope. The driveway slope varies from 7% to 20%. While the City does not have a maximum slope standard it is standard practice to try not to exceed 10%. Please try to redesign the driveway as the slopes proposed will be difficult to navigate during the winter months. Feel free to contact City Engineer,Jesse Struve to discuss. 2. Number of Stories. To determine the number of stories, we subtract 6 feet from the main floor elevation (shown as 1007.8'), which is 1001.8'. The 1001.8 ' contour is the existing contour with which we determine story vs. basement. Please have your surveyor show the 1001.8' contour on the survey. At least 50% of the basement perimeter must be at or below 1001.8'contour. The City of Orono's residential building height limit is 2 1/2 stories. 3. Wetlands. Based on our available information, it appears there is a wetland within the subject property. This wetland appears to be located within 150 feet of the proposed project. Because Orono City Code requires a 35-foot setback from any wetland for structures or hardcover,the location of the wetland must be indicated on the survey. Setbacks must be verified with wetland delineation information. Level2 Delineation is required. A Level 2 delineation shall include the exact surveyed boundary of the wetland shown on the certificate of survey. 4. Demolition Permit Application. Attached is a demolition permit application for the existing house and detached garage. Please complete and return as soon as possible. 5. Escrow & Escrow Agreement. Permits involving grading and/or review by the City's engineer require submittal of an escrow and an escrow agreement. The purpose of the escrow is to guarantee reimbursement to the City for out-of-pocket costs incurred during the review of your plans. Additionally this escrow will guarantee conformance with City Code Chapter 79 relating to erosion control and stormwater. The required escrow amount for this project is $2,500. The escrow agreement is enclosed. The property owner must sign the escrow agreement and submit a check for$2,500.
