Gatehouse: <br /> This letter is reg�rding the intensive vegetation clearing that was done on the bluff of Lake - <br /> Classen at your plroperty on July 3, 2003. Intensive vegetation clearing is not allowed withi 75 <br /> feet of a lake or on a steep slope greater than 30%(section 10.56 sub.3 (2)& 10.56 sub. 16 I)2). <br /> Intensive vegetatl on clearing on steep slopes creates: <br /> I <br /> -increase erosion of bluff <br /> -reduced canopy resulting in raindrops to directly hit bluff with full velocity <br /> -lack of root system on bluff causing soil to erode into lake <br /> -loss of saenic views of lakeshore viewed from lake <br /> The city will hold off on any legal action forcing restoration if you get a professional landsc pe <br /> plan that re-estab�ishes the canopy and ground cover on the bluff. The plan should provide <br /> proper landscapi�g to hold the bluff and return it to the way it looked before the cutting. Pl ase <br /> provide this plan to our office by August 22, 2003 so we can review it. After we review it e � <br /> will require you t10 implement the plan imediatly after you install your septic system or Oct er <br /> 1, 2003 which evier comes first, so we can get a vegetative cover re-established. <br /> If you have any questions please call me at 952-249-4600. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ��� � <br /> Matt Bolterman ' <br /> Inspector <br /> , +. <br /> � ' <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us • � � <br />
