Revised and updated February 3, 2017 KC Chermak VIA EMAIL Pillar Homes Partner, Inc. 1700 Niagara Lane Plymouth, MN 55447 Re: Building Permit Application#2016-01567 3295 Crystal Bay Road The City received a building permit application for a new single family home. Staff conducted a preliminary review based on the information provided and recommends the following items be submitted or revised in order for your application to be considered complete and for the plan review to continue: 1. Certificate of Survey. A survey was submitted but it doesn't meet some of the City's survey requirements. Please provide two copies of an updated, full-size certificate of survey which meets all of the City's survey standards (enclosed): a. The top of foundation elevation is shown on the survey. Please have the surveyor show the point or spot on the perimeter of the foundation where the top of foundation elevation is in reference to. Please note, we expect the location to be consistent when submitting the foundation as-built. Completed b. The site plan does not depict the water main and associated easement. Attached is a copy of the easement and exhibit.Completed c. The survey elevations show a retaining wall that would measure 5 feet 8 inches around the window well. Walls over 4 feet require engineered plans to be submitted and approved prior to the issuance of the building permit application. Plan amended d. The swale on the west side of the home should be capable of handling run off from the shared driveway on the south of the home. Care must be taken along that drainage line to ensure the bluff area is stabilized sufficiently to prevent erosion. We recommend consultation with the home owners at 3309 Crystal Bay Road as they have experience with the draining issues in the area. Should the proposed swale be over the water main a minimum of 8 feet of cover must be maintained. 2. Building Plans. a. The building plans show an expansion over the garage within the rear setback. Council must approve the encroachment prior to construction. Construction plans dated 12-22-16 have been redlined. The City Council will review this change at their meeting on February 13, 2017. b. The building plans indicate a stepped-retaining wall around the window well and the survey shows a single wall. Please provide clarification. Both plan sets reference stepped retaining walls c. Sheet 4 shows a balcony from the loft area extending 1'6"beyond the area allowed by the variance. This balcony will need to be pulled back to be no further than 3 feet beyond the main line of the house. 3. Resolution and Encroachment Agreements. Prior to the issuance of the building permit,the revised resolution and encroachment agreements must be signed.
