Late <br />in the process it was determined that the project was likely located in <br />both the cities of Wayzata and Orono. A Wayzata permit was obtained and <br />the Orono conditional use permit was applied for in late August. <br />During the site inspection as part of the application review on <br />September 15th, staff found that work was in progress. A stop work order <br />was issued on September 16th when staff determined via air photo overlay <br />maps that almost tte entire project was in Orono. However, no survey work <br />has been provided to establish the City boundary nor the portion of work <br />which actually will occur in Orono. Please see the attached air photo <br />overlay. <br />Merits of the Land Alteration Permit Request <br />Please review the City Engineer's comments. Exhibit G. His <br />recommendation includes the following points: <br />1. The 2.5 to 1 slopes need protection from erosion until sod has <br />been established. <br />2. Slopes will be difficult to maintain, although the applicant <br />indicates such slopes are regularly maintained on the golf course <br />today.
