1 <br />MINUTES OF A PLANNING COMMISSION ^CETING HELD JULY 19, 1976 - PAGE 2 <br />Hank Miihich stated that a meeting had been held earlier today <br />at the Village Offices between John Holmquist of the Minnehaha <br />Creek VKatershed District; Rod Hillstrcm, Ryan Construction; <br />Rick Sathre, City Engineer; Dick Benson and Hai^ Muhich. The <br />Minnehaha Creek Watershed District was concerned that the <br />proposed grading and drainage plan could result in higher rate <br />and lower quality runoff than now exists. At this meeting, it <br />was agreed that a french drain system would eliminate this <br />problem. This system would consist of digging 4-5' trenches <br />and adding a layer of 3” rock through the lower area under <br />the surface grating. Quality would be controlled by grading <br />down to a finer material before going into the storm sewer. <br />Rod Hillstrcm and Frank Zelley of I^^an Construction were <br />present at the meeting. They submitted a statement regarding <br />fulfilling M.C.W.D. requironents for the rate and quality of <br />runoff. They will work with this system and submit for <br />approval. Hillstrcm infoimed the Ccmmission that there would <br />be some water retention on the roof, but only for a short <br />period of time. <br />Pesek moved, Guthrie seconded, to approve site plan and <br />elevation based on the stipulation that it satisfies the <br />Minndiaha Creek Watershed District and our city engineer <br />as an adequate filter system. Dunlap suggested that any <br />erosion pi^lems be corrected as they come up. Tlie Zoning <br />Administrator infoimed Ryan Construction and the Conmission <br />that the unpaid sewer and water unit charges assessed against <br />the property would have to be paid before the building peimit <br />is issued. <br />RYAN CONS'. ?WriON <br />(SUPER VALL) <br />3333 SHORELINE WOVE <br />BUILDING ELEVATION <br />6 SITE PLAN APPROVAL <br />i t\ <br />John Lamb in, contractor, and George Hanson were present. <br />Lambin presented the plans to the Conmission for the con­ <br />struction of a new home.
