The Variance Application,Certificate of Survey, and Hardcover <br /> �`Calculations are dated February 22,2012. Based on our review, we offer the following comments for�� <br /> your consideration: <br /> 1. This property is zoned LR-lA(Lakeshore Residential), which requires a minimum front setback <br /> of 50 feet(Sec:78-305). The current Survey shows a proposed front setback of 30 feet. <br /> Therefore, a variance is required to reduce the minimum setback by 20 feet(40%). <br /> 2. The current Survey shows a proposed Top of Bluff setback of 15 feet. Per Sections 78-1211 and <br /> 78-1279,the minimum bluff setback required for structures is 30 feet from the top of bluff. Also, <br /> the bluff impact zone is defined as 20 feet from the top of bluff, and no structures can be placed <br /> within this zone. Therefore,variances are required to reduce the Top of Bluff setback by 15 feet <br /> (50%) and to allow a structure within the Bluff Impact Zone. <br /> 3. This property is not provided with a sanitary service stub. The existing service stub, directed <br /> toward this lot,is intended for 780 Brown Road North. If the lot is determined to be buildable, <br /> the applicant will need to install a new connection for Lot 790 and provide an easement for the <br /> service to Lot 780. Also,the applicant will be required to bear the costs of the SAC fee, <br /> connection permit, and grinder station for connection to pressure sewer. Plans detailing this <br /> connection would be required as part of a Building Permit Application. <br /> 4. If the lot is determined buildable,the applicant will need to submit a Building Permit Application, <br /> including proposed Building Plans, a Certificate of Survey meeting Building Permit <br /> requirements, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan, and all applicable fees. <br /> 5. If the lot is determined buildable,the applicant will be required to obtain a Minnehaha Creek <br /> Watershed District permit for erosion control. A copy of the pemut should be submitted to the <br /> City after MCWD approval. <br /> Please contact me if you have any questions or need additional information. <br /> Sincerely, � <br /> BOLTON&MENK,INC. <br /> �� � ��: <br /> David P.Martini <br /> Principal Engineer <br />
