Zoning File 11 SSI April 15. 1994 Page 3 • Nfethods to minimize soil crosk)H and to trap sediments hefi>rr they reach any surface water feature must be used. • Altered areas must be subilized to acceptable erosn>n control standards. . Fill or excavated material must not be placed in a manner that creates an unstable slope. • Plans to place fill or excasated materia* m steep slopes must be reviewed by the City Engineer for continued slope subility and must not create tmished slopes ot 30^ or greater. O0% is approximately a 3; I slope). • Fill or excavated material must not be placed in blutf impact zoiks (not a facior here). • Any alterations below the OHW of public waters must be authorized by the DNR (DNR has confirmed no permit required). • Alterations of topography must only be allowed if they are accessory to permitted or coixlitional uses and do not adverse;, affect adjacent or nearby property. It appears that with the revision of slopes to 3:1 at the crossing point, these standards and conditions can be met. Staff would anticipate that in order to construct 3:1 slopes, the crossing may have to shift 5-10 ’ westward to avoid filling into the neighboring property to the east. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit and variance for crossing the creek A sueaested hardship for the variance request is that the rear ot applicants ’ property cannot be suitably maintained and he has little use of that propeny without access to it. Conditions ot approval should include. 1 Applicant to obtain a land alteration permit from the City prior to commencing construction. Construction on the driveway and crossing may not commence until the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has issued a permit. 3. 4. Plan must be revised to include 3:1 tmished slo()es rather than 2.1 slopes. Appropriate erosion control and site protection measures (i.e. "Best Management Practices") shall be maintained during all phases of construction.
