. i <br />r.1r.m <br />Mr. Michael Gaffron <br />Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator <br />City of Orono <br />Orono, Minnesota <br />rrr i CITY 0«[onoNC <br />SEP Z i 1998 <br />1 <br />September 17, 1992 <br />Re: Proposal ^1762 - Paul W. Boyke Subdivision <br />Dear Mr. Gaffron: <br />My husband Jim and I are concerned about Paul W. Boyke's <br />proposed subdivision. We have lived at 259 Hollander Road for two <br />and a half years and our property borders Mr. Boyke's lot. Our <br />property and Mr. Boyke's are beautiful examples of the natural <br />wild environment areas that Orono has worked hard to preserve <br />and protect. Lydiard Lake and its surrounding wetlands, located in <br />the proposed subdivision area, is home to many types of birds, <br />wildlife, trees, and plantlife which my family and I enjoy observing <br />and protecting. <br />One concern we have about Proposal *1762 is that the proposed <br />subdivision is quite close in proximity to Lydiard Lake and its <br />surrounding wetland area. Does the City of Orono consider this <br />proximity appropriate in meeting the standards set forth in the <br />Shoreland Management Ordinance document? Will the subdivision <br />proximity be appropriate in preserving this natural wetland/lake <br />area and protecting it from decay? <br />i <br />The building site, as proposed, appears to be placed on a sloping <br />area of land or bluff with the house sitting below land on three <br />sides. What effect will drainage or land erosion, resulting from <br />removal of large mature trees from the building cite, have on <br />Lydiard Lake? What effect will a sewer/septic system, placed on a <br />bluff impact area, have on the wetland area below, especially <br />considering storm water runoff? <br />jhumiA
