MN 55323 <br />^004 <br />Re;356 West Lake Street <br />File No. 139-04-000 <br />Plat No. 04-3051 <br />Dear Janice: <br />VVe have reviewed the plans and visited the site for the proposed improvements to 356 West Lake Street. The <br />proposed improvements include removing an existing residence and constnicting a new home. The home <br />construction will require some site grading to control and direct drainage. We have the following comments <br />with regards to engineering matters; <br />The proposed house elevations provided do not agree with the proposed grading plan. The lakeside <br />house elevation shows a proposed two stoi7 home with a full basement. The grading plan shows <br />grading to provide a lookout on Ihe lakeside of the home. The grading necessary to construct a lookout <br />will likely encroach into the 75-foot setback and wc would strongly discourage this. <br />The proposed top of foundation is approximately 2.5 feet higher than the existing house to the north. <br />This will create difficulty in grading a swale along the noilh side of the proposed home. Wc <br />recommend that the proposed top of foundation elevation be revised to be no higher than 955.0. <br />The final grading plans should include side yard swales to direct water towards the lake. <br />Wc did not notice any steps to the lake when we visited the site. The slope to the lake is steep and <br />heavily vegetated. Plans should include step construction to the lake and provisions for stabilizing <br />disturbed areas where the steps arc constructed and the site where the existing shed will be removed. <br />Final house plans should include gutters and downspouts that direct roof drainage to the side yaid <br />swal.Vj. <br />The silt fence should be installed at the 75-foot setback from the lake. All erosion control measures <br />should be installed, inspected and approved by city staff prior to any work on site. <br />If you have any questions please call me at (651) 604-4S63. <br />Yours very truly. <br />BONESTROO, ROSENE.
