We are planning to put a silt fence around the perimeter and will lay down <br /> barley straw to minimize erosion. <br /> FYI... After grading, we plan to seed the site with a dog-friendly mix of wildflowers and ground cover plants <br /> within a straw mulch to create a stable, natural setting for the landscape. Although it will be too late for any <br /> seeds to take hold this fall, they will come to life in the spring. We did that when we built here 20 years ago and <br /> still have a wonderful healthy, natural landscape with no mowing required.(We were ahead of the times by <br /> creating what is essentially considered a rain garden setting today!) If you have other ground cover suggestions <br /> that are native to Minnesota, we would be very happy to consider them. <br /> Thanks for your good work! <br /> Best, <br /> Wendy <br /> __--- , <br /> Wendy Johnson & Jim Gambone <br /> 1360 North Arm Drive <br /> Mound/Orono, MN 55364 <br /> 612-817-8222 <br /> On Sep 17, 2013, at 10:11 AM, Brett Eidem wrote: <br /> Wendy, <br /> After reviewing your plans, it does not appear that your home addition project would trigger any of the MCWD District <br /> Rules and we will not need a permit for this project. We would recommend putting some sort of perimeter control <br /> around the disturbed are to contain the disturbed soil and minimize erosion. <br /> Thanks, <br /> Brett Eidem <br /> District Representative <br /> Minnehaha Creek Watershed District <br /> 15320 Minnetonka Boulevard <br /> 1 <br />
