Rich Anderson May 23, 1995 Page 2 • Construct 6' fence along east lot line (approximately from road right-of-way line northward to where existing vegetation screening begins). • Although we didn't specifically discuss it, if you ever do regrade the site, consider rebuilding the driveway entrance to the County road by building it up to allow for a 20' apron level with the County road for safery purposes (this will take significant fill). • You indicated a desire to regrade between the south dry stack unit and the road, to create a second berm for tree planting/screening. This will require a detailed grading plan and review by the Council, although if less than 100 cubic yards total would not require a separate conditional use permit. • The area between the dry stacks and the County road needs to be re-vegetated, although you are doing a good job of not using that area for storage. - • The area behind the caretaker house being used for storage is recent gravel (since 1985 approval) that was never specifically approved for hardcover or storage, although it is a relatively unobtrusive location for storage. Your proposal to screen this with a fence between the caretaker house and the existing vegetation screening is a good plan, but we need to resolve the hardcover issue (see hardcover diagrams attached). • The lilacs along the west side of the service building won't do any significant screening for 10-15 years if they survive. Your suggestion of planting some deciduous trees (maples, etc.) along that building will provide some softening of its impact much more quickly. • All storage along the west side of the service building should be discontinued. • Except for the first 40' north of the service building, screening along the west side extending to the lake looks like it will be fairly good under summer leaf-on conditions. However, remember this is an especially sensitive area because neighboring houses are very near your properry. • The a:ea west of the lagoon also has never been approved for hardcover, and although only a portion of it is graveled, this area needs some planning. One goal would be to eliminate as much hardcover as possible within 75' of the lake, � and then continue a green buffer strip along the lagoon. By code, that buffer along the shoreline should be almost 50'. However, a 20-30' buffer coupled with the parking lot paved and draining to a stormwater pond, probably results in a good long-term plan. '
