TO:Planning Coinnisslon and Council <br />FROH:Jeanne Mabusth, Zoning, Administrator <br />DATE:January 28, 1981 <br />SUBJECT: # 602 Vayzata Country Club, 200 Uayzata Blvd., Conditional Use Peitnit <br />Zoning District -- RR-IB <br />Application • Conditional Use Permit <br />Action Item <br />Review of Application <br />The City was asked to inspect a proposed excavating and filling job <br />being performed by the Uayzata Country Club. The "greenskeeper" was asked <br />to stop all work until Council could approve the proposed land alteration. <br />Staff advised that the size of the project demanded Council approval and <br />did not fall with the scope of staff's authority. <br />Ihe land alteration involved expansion of the designated pond to a third <br />the size of the existing pond. A portion of the bank to the north of the pond, <br />in the proximity of the tree nursery, was leveled three feet and graded. All <br />fill from excavation of pond and north bank will be placed in the fill area, <br />as designated on plan, to a height of 3 feet and graded to meet the existing <br />grade. The piles of fill along Long Lake Road are within the City right of way. <br />If it becomes impossible to grade and level fill area, erosion control measures <br />should be taken to protect City right of way and surrounding area. <br />A speedy decision on this application will allow the contractor to reap <br />the benefits of the warm weather and save needless expense of bringing the <br />excavation equipment back to site. Upon review of the Planning Commission's <br />recommendation, Dick Benson will poll die Council by phone. <br />Staff recommendation <br />To approve the conditional use permit of the Uayzata Country Club <br />allowing the expansion of the pond and use of additional fill creating a <br />3 ft. high bank to be graded to existing contours based on the following <br />findings: <br />1. does not affect drainage of neighboring property owners <br />will increase retention area in a low, collection drainage area. <br />All disturbed area to be protected by erosion control devices and <br />City right of way to be cleared as soon as possible. <br />Ponds banks should be qraded to 3:1 slope. <br />2. <br />J. <br />4.
