(2) AII roads and parking areas shall be designed and co�stnacted to minimize and control erosion to <br /> public waters consistent with the requirements of all agencies with jurisdiction. <br /> {d} Except for those projects requiring permits for construction of structures, sewage treatment systems <br /> and driveways, a land alteration permit will be required as follows: <br /> (1) For movement of up to 50 cubic yards of material within 75 feet of public wate�s as per item (b) <br /> above, a staff-issued land alteration permit shall be required. <br /> (2) For mavement of 51 through 500 cubic yarcls of material anywhere within the Shoreland Overlay <br /> District, except for within 75 feet of public waters, a staff-issued land alteration permit shall be <br /> required. <br /> (3} For movement of more than 50Q cubic yards of material within the Shoreland Overlay District, <br /> conditional use permit approval by the city council is required in addition to the required land <br /> alteration permit. <br /> {e) The following considerations and conditions must be adhered to during the issuance of construction <br /> permits, grading and filling permits, conditional use permits, variances and subdivision approvals: <br /> (1) Grading or fllling in any type 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 wetland must be evaluated to determine how <br /> extensively the proposecf activity would affect the following functional qualities of the wetland: <br /> a. Sediment and poliutant trapping and retention; <br /> b. Storage of surface runoff to prevent or reduce flood damage; <br /> c. Fish and wildlife habitat; <br /> d. Recreafional use; <br /> e. Shoreline or bank stabilization; and <br /> f. Noteworth(ness, including special qualities, such as historic significance, critical habitat for <br /> endangered plants and animals, or others. <br /> This evaluation must also include a defiermination of whether the wetland alteration being <br /> proposed requires permits, reviews or approvals by other sections of city ordinances or by other <br /> Iocaf, state or federal agencies inGuding but nat limited to watershed districts, state department <br /> of natural resources, or the United States Army Corps of Engineers. <br /> (2) Alterations must be designed and conducted in a manner that ensures only the smallest amount <br /> of bare ground is exposed for the shortest time possible. <br /> (3) Mulches or similar materials must be used, where necessary, far temporary bare soil coverage, <br /> and a permanent vegetation cover must be established as soon as possible. <br /> (4) Methods to rninimize soil erosion and to trap sediments before they reach any surface water <br /> feature must be used. <br /> (5) Altered areas must be stabilized to aoceptable erosion control standards cansistent with the field <br /> affice technical guides of the local soil and water conservation districts and the United States Soif <br /> Conservation Service. <br /> (6) Fill or excavated material must not be placed in a manner that creates an unstable slope. <br /> (7} Plans fio place fill or excavated material on steep slopes must be reviewed by the city engineer <br /> for continued slope stability and must not cr�eate finished slopes of 30 percent or greater. <br /> (8} Fill or excavated materia! must not be p{aced in bluff impact zones. <br /> (9} Any alterations below the ordinary high water level of public waters must first bc authoriaed by <br /> the commissioner of the department of natural resources under Minn. Stat. § 103G.245. <br /> (10) Alterations of topography must only be allowed if they are aocessory to pennitted or conditional <br /> uses and do not adversely affect adjacent or nearby property. <br /> Page 5 <br />
