� #OS-3132 July 18,2005 Page 5 of 6 � Conditional Use Permit Analysis The applic�nts have proposed to incorporate approximately 900 cubic yards of fill on the road sicle of the proposed home. The Shoreland Overlay District requires that a conditional ttse pernlit be reviewed for any fill in excess of 500 cubic y�rds outside the 0- 75' zone. Zoning Ordin�nce Section 78-1250 provides the following evahiation criteria for requested conditional uses within the Shoreland Overlay District: (1) Evcrlu�ation crite�°ia. A thorough evaluation of the water body and the topographic, vegetation and soils conditions on the site must be made to ensure: a. The prevention of soil erosion or the possible pollution of public waters, both during and after construction; The crpplicant v��ill not be pe��mitted to g�°crde within 75' of the lake �and c� silt fence inspection ��ill be reqzcii°ed prio�� to �any site gi°ading. Becazese the pi°oposed,f ll will be plcaced on the st��eet sic�e of the p�roposed honze, st�cff feels ther°e isn't �rny gr�eate�� •isk of possible pollzrtion to tl�e lcrke. b. The visibility of sti�uctures and other facilities as viewed froin public waters is limited; The applicant's buildes° has indzcatecl the views,from the lake will not be affecte�l by the p�°oposecl fill to be placecl on the st�•eet side of the lot. c. The site is adequate for water supply and on-site sewage treatment; and . Not�rpplicable trs the site is sei°l�ed with municipal se��er•. d. The types, uses and numbers of watercraft that the project will generate are compatible in relation to the suitability of public waters to safely accoin.tnodate these watercraft. Not applicc�ble. The need for the fill arises because the lot exists as a walk-out to the street side, with a partial walk-out to the lake. The effects of the reverse walk-out scenario is that the views froin the lake will be ininimally, if at all, impacted and views from the road entering into the site will be dramatically raised whereby a driveway sloping up towards the house will be artificially made. The previous house utilized a tuck-under style garage with a flatter driveway giving in to the topograpliy of the lot. The City Engineer has reviewed the proposed grading plan and is recoiivnending the applicants plan accordingly for the approximate 90 truckloads to be brought onto the site and that the applicants be sure to not disturb the grades within 26' of the wetland. The building department has indicated that a silt fence would be required to be installed at the 26' wetland setback to ensure the least anioun.t of disturbince. Beyond those concerns,
