Zoning File ##1309 <br />August 11, 1988 <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />The Planning Commission should address the following items so that our <br />new resident has some basic understanding as to what the City deems <br />approvable in solving this type of drainage problem: <br />1. Would you approve the crushed rock landscaping without the filter <br />fabric? <br />2. Would you approve the pond if it was outlined merely with the <br />boulders, with no filter fabric with only a grassed swale carrying the <br />run-off from the east along the south lot line. <br />3. Applicant should be advised if the only acceptable method for <br />dealing with the drainage on the property is the original plan that <br />called for a grassed swale that would fpn out to more gentle graduated <br />slopes in the grassed lakeshore yard. <br />3. The fill that has been placed within the flood plain is a far more <br />important issue. Staff would have to recommend against placement of <br />fill within the flood plain as the City has been consistent in denying <br />fill within the t lood plain. If the fill or pond is to remain, it <br />should be reviewed by the Minnehaha Water Creek District. <br />4. Any other options or methods of drainage improvement that the <br />Planning Commission would like to address or advise applicant. <br />In any case, clearly the Planning Commission must table the current <br />proposal and based on the directives to the applicant, the applicant and <br />applicant's contra,2tor must work with City staff to revise the current <br />drainage proposal and recommend a schedule to make the necessary changes <br />within a reasonable time frame. <br />
