The new wetland ordinance was adopted Monday 8-22; it wiil be published and become effective as of <br /> September 3. Complete applications submitted prior to September 3 will not be subject to the new <br /> ordinance. The new ordinance will require buffer widths based on the Functional Assessment of <br /> Wetlands based on data from the MCWD. The wetland mapped by MCWD at 3320 Fox is a "Preserve" <br /> category, requiring a 50' buffer and a 20' building setback from the buffer. Your application for 3320 Fox <br /> Street is incomplete; it was reviewed at our staff meeting this morning, and Janice Gundlach will be <br /> sending you a letter shortly describing the areas in which it is incomplete. Briefly, however, the lack of a <br /> grading plan and the lack of a wetland delineation report or indication of wetland boundaries in the <br /> survey, are a key feature of its incompleteness. <br /> 2. As noted above, there is a timing gap at the moment, but until your application is complete, it is not a valid <br /> application, so you need to get all required information to us ASAP to avoid being subject to the ordinance. <br /> Additionally, given that this still falls under MCWD rules, we need to know how MCWD will treat the <br /> wetland and what buffer they will require, before we can rule on the house location, etc. <br /> 3. You should deal directly with Public Services Director Greg Gappa (952-249-4621) on the Creekside <br /> utilities issues. <br /> I will be out of town from 3 pm today until Tuesday, September 6. Therefore, additional questions should be <br /> directed to Janice or Melanie in my absence. <br /> Michael P.Gaffron <br /> Planning Director <br /> City of Orono <br /> P.O.

What is the impact of the 20' buffer ordinance passing relative to the 3320 Fox St permit? <br /> 2. Do we fall in any kind of gap to grandfather prior to the ordinance, etc? <br /> 3. Creekside: who is handling the joint utility maintenance agreement with Long Lake? Long Lake <br /> won't allow me to start the work on Apple Glen Road, until the "city-wide" agreement(at least in <br /> draft form) is agreed upon by the cities. <br /> Thanks <br /> 8/29/2005 <br />
