For assistance in <br /> determining if there may be a wetland on the property, contact the Planning Department at 952-249-4620. <br /> MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT(MCWD) PERMITS <br /> Your project may or may not trigger the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District's (MCWD) permitting <br /> requirements. Contact the MCWD directly at 952-471-0590 to discuss their permitting requirements. <br /> FENCES AND DECKS <br /> The City of Orono does not require a fence around a pool or hot tub. If you choose to erect a fence it must <br /> comply with the height requirements. (See the Fences information sheets.) A deck or patio is not required <br /> around a pool. <br /> ACCESSORY BUILDINGS <br /> Pool houses and pool equipment buildings must comply with setbacks for accessory buildings and require a <br /> separate building permit. A toilet and sink may be installed in a pool house but a shower/bathtub and/or guest <br /> house require a conditional use permit. <br /> Last Updated: January 2014 <br /> This is an information sheet.
