Dear Evelyn:
We have reviewed the revised survey dated 3-12-07 for the proposed house at 1404 Baldur Park Road. The
plans show removing an existing home and construction of a new attached garage dwelling. We have the
following comments with regards to engineering matters:
x The proposed 931 contour along the east lot line, to the northeast of the house, should tie into an
existing 931 contour.
x Plans should be submitted to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for review and approval.
x The proposed sidewalk shown along the east side of the home makes grading difficult and will
likely direct runoff onto the adjacent property. The applicant should consider removing the
sidewalk or reducing the three car garage to something narrower to allow for the necessary swale
or ditch construction along the side yard.
x It appears that runoff near the southwest corner of the house will be directed onto the property to
the west. An attempt should be made to grade this area such that all runoff is contained on the
subject property.
If you have any questions please call me at (651) 604-4894.
Yours very truly,
BONESTROO
Darren Amundsen
