However,the majority <br /> of the walls should be removed. A VERY minimal number of stabilizing outcroppings would be considered (without a variance). <br /> Before the changes are made I recommend submittal of a revised plan and possibly a site meeting with our engineer to determine <br /> the necessity of the outcroppings. <br /> Melanie � <br /> Melanie Curtis <br /> 952.249.4627 mcurtis@ci.orono.mn.us <br /> -----Original Message----- <br /> From: Lincoln Danforth [mailto:lincoln@yardscapesinc.com] <br /> Sent:Tuesday, March 29, 2016 4:03 PM <br /> To: Melanie Curtis<MCurtis@ci.orono.mn.us> <br /> Subject: Re:Washuta (cherry ave) <br /> That'd be awesome. I'd look to dismantle the walls and use more outcropping method in order to support steps and keep grades. <br /> Thanks! <br /> Lincoln Danforth <br /> Yardscapeslnc.com <br /> 612-363-5789 <br /> Sent from my iPhone <br /> >On Mar 29, 2016,at 3:56 PM, Melanie Curtis<MCurtis@ci.orono.mn.us>wrote: <br /> > <br /> >Let me have a chance to bounce this off other staff during tomorrow afternoon's staff meeting. <br /> > <br /> >Feedback to you Thursday? <br /> > <br /> >Sent from my iPhone. <br /> > <br /> >On Mar 29, 2016, at 08:49, Lincoln Danforth<lincoln@yardscapesinc.com>wrote: <br /> > <br /> >Hi Melanie,this is what we currently have in place to support steps and grade(attached photos).we will need to use some of the <br /> stone right along the steps to avoid erosion,etc.Wondering if we remove the wall and use more outcroppings to support that.
