Zoning File #1720 <br />March 19, 1992 <br />Page 2 <br />Additional ConBKnts and Planning CooBission Re ndation <br />m: <br />... <br />Staff has scheduled the City of Orono application for review at <br />the March 23rd meeting prior to the approval of the DNR and MCWD, so <br />that the road repair and reconstruction of Fox Street can commence <br />without any further delays. The resolution has been written such that <br />the City cannot commence the installation of the improvements until <br />permit approvals have been granted by both agencies. <br />}r'ft <br />iv <br />ij <br />The Public Works Department has within the last month attempted <br />to clean out an old culvert installed under the railroad that has had <br />an impact on the Browns Bay wetlands. On March 9th an elevation <br />reading was taken of the water level on both sides of the railroad <br />track and it appeared the water level had dropped .4'. Recent visual <br />inspection also confirms a lowering of water level. The Public Works <br />Department is continuing the search for other culverts under the <br />railroad but as of this date they have been unable to locate any <br />Others. <br />■ ' <br />There has been a major undermining of the road from the high <br />waters of the wetland not just during this wet season but from <br />previous wet seasons. Fox Street has never been designed with <br />adequate shoulder area. The proposed improvement will now provide 8* <br />wide shoulders providing greater safety for users of the roadway and <br />greater stability for maintenance purposes. <br />The enclosed approval resolution has been drafted for Council's <br />review and action. <br />■ <br />■ i-f <br />■■-J. .:1k <br />- ^ r-V <br />k-• *• <br />f '; <br />S#: <br />' ^
