Building Permit Application#2012-01198
On November 26, 2012 the City received a building permit application for a deck addition. I contacted you
because the plans and survey submitted did not match. During our phone conversation you indicated the deck
was the only project to be constructed at this time and I informed you the survey and plans must reflect only the
extent of the the project being proposed today, not future projects. On December 11, 2012 we received an
updated survey, showing two projects, the deck and a paver patio. The following items must be submitted or
revised in order for your application to be considered complete and for the plan review to continue:
1. Certificate of Survey. Please have the surveyor provide the cut and fill earthwork calculations for the
paver patio and the top and bottom wall elevations for the proposed retaining wall. If the amount of
earthwork exceeds 50 cubic yards or 5,000 square feet our wetland regulations will apply and a wetland
delineation will be required.
2. Zoning Permit Application. The patio/earth work will require a Zoning Permit Application, copy
attached.
3. Wetland Delineation. A Manage 3 wetland exists on the subject property; according to Orono's City
Code Chapter 78 Article XI Wetlands Protection, manage 3 wetlands require a 16.5 foot wide vegetative
buffer. If the proposed patio project triggers the administration of the City's Wetlands Protection
regulations, a wetland delineation will be required. If a wetland delineation is required, we are unable
to proceed until a wetland delineation report is submitted. The wetland delineation must be approved
by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD). The delineated edge of the wetland must be
shown on the survey, along with the required 16.5 foot buffer and 20 foot structure setback from the
buffer. Please note, the MCWD has different buffer regulations/triggers than the City does.
4. Escrow & Escrow Agreement. Permits involving grading and/or review by the City's engineer require
submittal of an escrow and an escrow agreement. The purpose of the escrow is to guarantee
reimbursement to the City for out-of-pocket costs incurred during the review of your plans. Additionally
this escrow will guarantee conformance with City Code Chapter 79 relating to erosion control and
stormwater. The required escrow amount for this project is $2,500. The escrow agreement is enclosed.
The property owner must sign the escrow agreement and submit a check for$2,500.
5. Wetland Escrow & Escrow Agreement. If a wetland buffer is required a separate escrow and escrow
agreement will be required until the vegetation is established. The escrow amount is determined by our
wetland specialist and is based on the amount of work required.
