Herman, Lake Minnetonka - North Arm (27- <br />133-22), City of Orono, Hennepin County <br />Dear Mr. Weinberger; <br />In a recent letter, you asked about the status of DNR Permit #90-6244, which was issued 6/29/90 <br />for a 263' x 4' boardwalk at 3825 Cherry Avenue. Since state law only allows a DNR work in bed <br />of public waters permit to be valid for five years, a new permit would be required. The applicable <br />laws have not changed, so unless there is new information about the site or new local regulations <br />that would preclude the issuance of a permit, I would not expect a problem with a new applicant <br />receiving a DNR permit. However, they would have to go through the full application process, <br />which typically takes 60 days. I can provide a copy of the original application materials for DNR <br />Permit #90-6244 if Mr. Herman does not already have a copy. <br />The Lake Minnetonka Conservation District should also be consulted, if they have not already, <br />since a variance from the LMCD code may be required for such a boardwalk. <br />If you have any further questions, please contact me at (651) 772-7914. <br />Sincerely, <br />Ceil Strauss <br />Area Hydrologist <br />c; Lake Minnetonka Conservation District, Greg Nybeck <br />Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, Jim Hafher <br />Lake Minnetonka - North Arm (27-133-22) File <br />DKRInformation: 651-296-6157 • 1-888-646-6367 • TTY: 651-296-5484 • 1-800-657-3929 <br />Printed on R«cyd«d Pape Conlaininga <br />Mif^fTHjm of 10% Poft-Conaumar Wasta <br />An Equal Opportunity Employer <br />NVlio Values Diversity
