The proposed improvements includ e <br />the construction of a new home including site grading and retaining wall installation . We have the following <br />comments with regards to engineering matters: <br />• The proposed site plan includes a storm sewer sys tem that promotes infiltration. The system includes <br />drain tile and an ·infiltration area. The project narrative de scribes the creation of a native floodplain <br />shrub and grass buffer along the shoreline 75-foot setback. These improvements are environmentally <br />friendly and follow recommendations set forth in the City's Surface Water Management Plan. W e <br />wo uld encourage the city to promote this concept on this site and wh erever else possible. <br />• The pl an s should include the sanitary sewer stub location to the prope1iy. <br />• Retaining walls that exceed 4-feet in height require a separate engineered design s ubmittal for review <br />and approval. <br />• P lans should be submitted to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for review and approval. <br />If yo u have any questions please call me at (651) 604-4863. <br />Yours very truly, <br />BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />~;;~ <br />Tom Kellogg <br />Cc: Greg Gappa, City of Orono <br />• St. Paul , St .
