June 7, 1985 #93 6 City of Orono P.O. Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323 RE: SUP for Grading and Variance for Tree Removal 1085 Tonl,awa Road To The City of Orono: Enclosed please find the following: o Application for special use permit and variance to restore the excavated area of an existing foundation and remove undesireable trees within the 75 foot setback line of the Lakeshore residential district. o Grading plan prepared for the site. o Lot survey certificate prepared for the site. o Certified list of property owners within 350 feet of the subject property. o Self-addressed envelopes related to the property owners listed above. o Application fee of $290.00 made up as follows: o $200.00 for the land alteration permit o $50.00 for the variance for tree removal o $40.00 refundable sign deposit It it my opinion that the abandoned foundation area together with a second building site were graded by the previous owners within the 75 foot set back area. The current status of this is detrimental to the general ,npearance of the site as well as creating severe slopes which cause high ray of run-off and undue erosion. The proposal is to restore the grade approxim,', , to its existing condition prior to the construction of the two lake cu,rages. The filling operation will have the impact of providing a gentle slope as well as removing evidence of the previous cottage areas along the shoreline. The enclosed grading plan and building certificate indicates the current house pro- posed to be built varies from 90 to 100 feet setback from the Lakeshore. If the grading plan is unacceptable to the City, I will have excess fill removed in accordance with conversations with the Zoning Administration held prior to construction commencing.
