You and I discussed the project yet at that time you did not have a cubic yardage calculation for the fill or actual wall <br /> plans. Upon reviewing the proposal it appears portions of the retaining wall system will be over 9 feet high when <br /> measured from existing grade. This results in the wall appearing to be quite massive when viewed from adjacent <br /> properties. If the filling calculation exceeds 500 cubic yards a CUP will be required, and one of the likely conditions will be <br /> that the portions of the wall exceeding 6 feet in height may be required to meet a greater setback of 10 feet from the <br /> side and rear property lines. If the fill calculation fails beneath 500 cubic yards, it is recommended that you move the <br /> walls back to meet a 10-foot setback from the property lines as a courtesy to the impacted neighbors. <br /> Please discuss with your surveyor the necessary grading plan requirements (i.e. proposed grades mentioned in #2 above) <br /> to be shown on the survey prior to submittal. Your surveyor should be provided with the attached Survey and Site Plan <br /> Requirements sheet if they do not have a copy. If you or the surveyor have any questions as to what is needed please do <br /> not hesitate to call me or Adam Edwards, our Engineer (952.249.4661). <br /> Thank you <br /> Melanie <br /> Melanie Curtis, Planner <br /> Direct 952.249.4627 <br /> Planning &Zoning Office 952.249.4620 <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway, Orono, MN 55356 <br /> Email: mcurtisCo�ci.orono.mn.us <br /> Website: www.ci.orono.mn.us <br /> From: Christine Mattson <br /> Sent:Thursday, September 29, 2016 10:11 AM <br /> To:Adam Edwards<aedwards@ci.orono.mn.us> <br /> Subject: 1225 Dickenson Street/#2016-01183 <br /> Ada m, <br /> The applicant submitted a Zoning Permit for retaining walls when a building permit is needed for walls over 4 <br /> feet.
