The property <br />is located within a shoreland area. The CUP allows the City to notify surrounding property owners <br />and requires City Council approval for such proposed projects. <br />Application Summary: <br />The property owner has requested a conditional use permit to permit land alteration on the property <br />over 500 cubic yards. The project w ill be to build a berm along the northern border of the property <br />jilong North Shore Drive. It will be located behind an existing row of large evergreen trees. The <br />berm will aid additionally to screen traffic noise from North Shore Drive. In September 2002. the <br />Building Official issued a land alteration permit allowing 500 cubic yards to be brought onto the <br />subject property. Approximately 1.500-2.000 cubic yards of additional fill will be required to build <br />the berm. 1 he applicants are obtaining the fill from projects in Long Lake. <br />I he berm is proposed to be approximately 8 feet at the highest point and will curve as indicated on <br />the surv ey (Exhibit B). The applicant has indicated that the berm will be hydro seeded with prairie <br />grass and 30-40 evergreens will be planted on it. There currently is a row of smaller ev ergreens <br />vx here the berm is proposed to be located. These trees will be moved and upon completion of the <br />berm will be planted on it. The berm and plantings will have no impact on traffic sight-lines and <br />would appear to have no negative impacts on site drainage. <br />«02-2834 <br />1425 Bay Ridge Road <br />October 11.2002 <br />Page I of2
