Mr. Michael P. Gaffron <br />City of Orono <br />Page -2- <br />June II, 1997 <br />to Lot 4 from Lyman Avenue wMl likely exceed acceptable grades even Aith a “tuck under" garage. A <br />grading, drainage and erosion control plan should be prepared that shows both the existing and proposed <br />contours, building pad elevations, driveway locations, and erosion control measures to be used during <br />construction. Plans should be prepared for ihe street construction. <br />3. Drainage: Approximately one third of the property drains directly to the manmade pond at the center <br />of the subdivision. It is likely that this pond would be classified as a wetland and protected under the <br />current State and Federal laws. The property may have as many as five separate wetland areas, none of <br />which are regulated by the DNR. A wetland investigation and delineation should be conducted on the <br />property to determine the wetland limits. It appears that the development of Lot 2 will impact a portion <br />of one of the wetland areas. Existing drainage ways along the west and north lines of Lot 2 should be <br />defined and improved. A culvert will be required under the driveway to Lot 2. The plans shor'- ' be <br />submitted to the Minnehaha Creel Watershed District for their review. The development will likely need <br />to provide some type of storm water pond to meet the MCWD rules. If the manmade pond is determined <br />to be exempt from the wetland regulations, it would be ideal for this purpose. An outlet structure should <br />be constructed to control the pond levels and outflow s. <br />4. Easements: The platting should include a dedicated right-of-way for Lyman Drive and the cul-de-dac. <br />The cul-de-sac will require a lot split/combination, or easement from the adjacent property. Drainage and <br />utility easements should be provided 5 feet wide along all interior lot lines and 10 feet wide along the <br />roadway right-of-ways. Drainage easements should be provided across all wetland, drainage way and <br />pond areas. <br />5. Financial Guarantee: VVT.en the plans have been completed we will prepare an estimate of the total cost <br />for the site improvements to determine the amount of the financial guarantee required. <br />Please contact me at this office if you have any questions regarding this matter. <br />Yours very truly, <br />BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />Shawn D.
