Box 66 Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 Gerald Clark 870 Windjammer Lane Mound, MN 55364 May 13, 2002 Dear Mr. Clark: This letter is regarding the erosion problems in the rear of your property. We notified you last fall of the need for a permit for the work that is being done on your property. We still do not have a permit for the property and have not had any contact from you over the past couple of months. During a recent inspection, on May 10, 2002, it was revealed that your property is in need of maintaining the silt fence and adding additional erosion control measures to ensure that your bank does not erode into Lake Minnetonka. We need you to contact Paul Weinberger from our Zoning Department by May 20, 2002 to get your permit process going again. In the meantime we need you to do everything in your power to make sure you keep the erosion to a minimum. If you have any questions please call the number listed below.

The City would like to see this issue resolved this construction season. The regrading of your lakeshore is in violation of Municipal Code Section 10.55, Subdivision 8 which prohibits any land alteration within 75' of the lakeshore and Section 10.03, Subdivisions 19-21 which prohibits any land alteration without obtaining a permit. Additionally I believe your bank meets the criteria to be classified as a bluff which any land alteration of a bluff is prohibited by the Shoreland Ordinance. This is a serious matter that does require immediate attention since long term slope stability and erosion are concerns. Please submit engineered drawings of your proposed restoration plan to return the slope to the original grade. I understand you have contacted Gronberg & Associates to complete the survey and engineering work. Your previous deadline has passed. In a prior meeting I provided you with the appropriate application materials. Please submit them with the engineered drawings by September 30, 2002. If the City has not received the materials by that date the City may initiate legal action. Your cooperation would be appreciated. Do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.
