BOAT CITY OF ORONO Street Address: Mailing Address: Telephone(952)249-4600 y� ` 2750 Kelley Parkway P.O.Box 66 Fax (952)249-4616 dkFSHO��G Orono,MN 55356 Crystal Bay,MN 55323 www.ci.orono.mn.us January 7, 2013 Scott& Michelle Miller 85 Old Crystal Bay Road S Long Lake, MN 55356 RE: Land Alteration Permit Application #2012-01221 85 Old Crystal Bay Road South On December 5, 2012 the City received a zoning permit application for after-the-fact land alterations. After a cursory review we have determined your application to be incomplete. The survey provided is only a partial survey of the property. Please provide 2 copies of an updated, full size certificate of survey which meets all of the City's survey standards (enclosed). The survey should specifically indicate the location of the delineated wetland, the required wetland buffer area (south of the driveway) and removal of the fill and rock border from the wetland buffer area. All existing buildings, structures, landscaping, retaining walls, delineated wetland edge, 25' wetland buffer and 20' wetland buffer setback must be shown on the survey also. Building permit #P09168 was issued in 2006 for the construction of your new home. Due to the location of the proposed driveway within the wetland and wetland buffer the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District required wetland and wetland buffer area mitigation. Attached is a copy of the approved buffer location and plantings. In November of 2011, a land alteration permit was issued for driveway changes/expansions (permit #2011-01360). The $2,000 permit escrow collected with this permit will be held until an as-built survey is received and approved which reflects compliance with this permit. As a result of the additional driveway installed with this permit, a wetland buffer was required by the City to be planted. A $700 escrow is being held to assure the buffer is planted. To-date the driveway and buffer project does not appear to be completed or finaled by the City. A temporary certificate of occupancy was issued on 12/29/2009 for the new home permit. In order to obtain a final certificate of occupancy the conditions placed on permit #P09168 and subsequent permit#2011-01360 must be submitted or satisfactorily completed, specifically the following: 1. The wetland and wetland buffer mitigation required by permit#P09168, including plantings; 2. The wetland buffer establishment as required by permit 2011-01360; 3. As-built survey meeting Orono's survey requirements which reflects compliance with all permits. 4. Removal of the rock and fill material placed south of the driveway in the area of wetland buffer mitigation as shown on the partial survey dated November 28, 2012.
