bluff is measured. Based on ihe survey data that was completed by the Egan field & Nowak the top of bluff is measured at the 961' contour. The City’s maps are very accurate, however they arc interpolated from aerial photography and can have some slight variations to site elevations. The type of land alteration that occurred on site docs require the property ow-ner to provide a survey for review with the variance and CUP application. TIic topography provided by ihe sur\c> or docs indicate the top of bluff line is actually located about 5' fiuthcr back on the lot. This indicates the putting green encroaches about 8’ into the bluff impact zone. An afllcr-the-faci variance would be required in this case for Ihe putting green to permit fill to be deposited in Ihe bluff Impact zone. (Section 10.56 (J)5h). Staffdid issue a land alteration permit that allowed the property owner to locate the putting green as shown on the site plan. Issues for Discussion 1.Provide recommendations regarding the landscaping plan, including the number, species and location. 2. 3. Recommendation on the retaining wali/screening. Recommendation on the size on location of the putting green, which encroaches 8* into the bluff setback. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends the property owner add one additional nardwood tree on the lakeside of the stairway and one additional tree at the top of the bluff in the center of the property. The two additional trees will provide additional screening of the stairway and putting green as well as provide a better root system for long term stabilization of the slope. Options For Action 1. Recommend approval of the requested variances and CUP with appropriate conditions. 2.Recommend partial approval and define what elements of the plan aren’t approved and that they should be restored.
