The project would required clear cutting the slope and depositing of <br />3,280 cubic yards of fill, the purpose was to create a gradual slope rather than the existing steep drop <br />from the immediate back yard of the house. The source of the fill was the Orono Woods apartment <br />building located at the northwest comer of Highway 12 and Brown Road (Dunbar Project). <br />At the time of the approval it was stated by the property owner that some existing less mature trees <br />would be removed with the intent to replant once the fill is placed on the hillside. Additional trees <br />were to be added to the property where existing trees could not be used. The hillside will not be a <br />maintained lawn area that is mowed, but is to be left to restore itself naturally. <br />A conditional use permit was required for land alteration of greater than SOO cubic yards. The slope <br />is Qfii located within a shoieland area, where trees and existing grades on slopes are protected. The <br />CUP process allows the City to notify surrounding property owners within 350' and requires City <br />Council approval for such proposed projects. <br />•02-2793 Revis StcpIicMOH 10 <br />IISOFMlUdstRlMd <br />pieeior4
