April 25, 2022 Christian Harker 1720 Bohns Point Road Wayzata, MN 55391 Submitted by email: christianharker@yahoo.com Re: Retaining Wall Evaluation Project Location: 1720 Bohns Point Road, Wayzata, Minnesota Criterium File No.: 22-6174 Dear Mr. Harker: At your request, a visual inspection of the retaining wall at the above property has been completed. The report that follows has been prepared based on that inspection. This inspection was performed by Paul Schimnowski, PE. My work includes the following: 1. Visual observations during a site visit on April 20, 2022. 2. Observe factors influencing the performance of the structure. 3. Provide a written report containing the following: a. Scope of services. b. Observations, site characteristics, and data deemed pertinent by me. c. Discussion of structural factors influencing the performance of this wall. d. Conclusions and any recommendations for further investigation and remedial or preventative measures. e. You asked me to pay special attention to the forward movement of the wall, horizontal gaps in the face of the wall, deteriorated block at the top of the wall, and erosion at the base of the wall SUMMARY In my professional opinion, the overall structural condition of this concrete masonry unit (CMU) retaining wall is considered to be poor when compared to others of similar age and construction type. The wall is failing and is reaching the end of its expected useful life. Due to its deteriorated condition, options for repairs to re-establish structural stability of the wall are limited and may not be cost-effective in extending the life of the wall. Replacement should be anticipated in the next few years. SPECIFIC ITEMS NOTED & ASSOCIATED RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. The top of the wall is displaced outward by about 2 to 3 inches near the center and north sections of the wall. 2. Horizontal gaps have developed at the wall face due to wall displacement and settlement. 3. Some of the cap units, block, and mortar are deteriorated due to freeze-thaw damage. 4. The cores of some of the blocks are exposed. This will allow water to infiltrate and further deteriorate the block. 5. Structurally significant erosion has occurred at the base of the wall which has exposed the footing. For a wall of this type, the bottom of the footing should be at least 42-inches below 1720 Bohns Point Road, Wayzata, Minnesota April 25, 2022 Page | 2 grade. In order to establish proper frost protection of the footings and structural stability of the wall, several feet of fill will need to be added at the front of the wall, and/or the wall will need to be underpinned with helical piers or a similar method. 6. The footing of the wall has been exposed and undermined from wildlife burrowing activity. See Item 5 above for recommended repairs. 7. Refer to the attached photos for additional notes and observations. OPTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT 1. For this location, a rock/boulder wall similar to the newer wall at the north end of the failing wall could be considered. Alternatively, a segmental block (i.e. Versa-Lok, Anchor) retaining wall could be designed and installed. These types of walls do not require frost-depth footings. They are constructed on aggregate leveling pads 1 to 2 feet below grade. Figure 1: Existing, nearby stone retaining wall 2. Replacing the wall with a similar CMU wall would require construction of a concrete footing at least 42-inches below grade. The front-to-back width of the footing could exceed 6-feet. Generally, these types of walls will disturb more area than rock or segmental block walls discussed in Item 1 above. DESCRIPTION OF TERMS Terms used in this report to describe the condition of observable components and systems are listed and defined below. It should be noted that a term applied to an overall system does not preclude that a part or a section of the system or component may be in different condition: Excellent- Component or system is in “as new” condition, requiring no rehabilitation, and should perform in full accordance with expected performance. Good- Component or system is sound and performing its function. Although it may show signs of normal wear and tear, some minor rehabilitation work may be required. Fair- Component or system falls into one or more of the following categories: a) Evidence of previous repairs not in compliance with commonly accepted standards, b) Workmanship not in compliance with commonly accepted standards, c) Component or system is obsolete, d) Component or system approaching end of expected performance. Repair or replacement is required to prevent further deterioration or to prolong expected life. Poor- Component or system has either failed or cannot be relied upon to continue performing its original function as a result of having exceeded its expected performance, excessive 1720 Bohns Point Road, Wayzata, Minnesota April 25, 2022 Page | 3 deferred maintenance, or state of disrepair. Present condition could contribute or cause the deterioration of other adjoining elements or systems. Repair or replacement is required. SCOPE OF SERVICES and LIMITATIONS The report is not to be considered a guarantee of condition and no warranty is implied. Our observations are non-destructive, and limited to those portions of the site/wall that could be visually examined without excavation, removing surface finishes, disassembling equipment, or removing finishes, furnishings and equipment. Our scope of services did not include an exhaustive technical investigation. No material sampling, analytic tests, precise measurements or engineering calculations were performed. This includes but is not limited to: compaction testing, soil sampling, global stability calculations. We did not determine whether the wall and its operation or use conform to any city codes, or regulations, or restrictions that may be enforced within the jurisdiction. As Professional Engineers, it is our responsibility to evaluate available evidence relevant to the purpose of this inspection. We are not, however, responsible for conditions that could not be seen or were not within the scope of our service at the time of the inspection. DESCRIPTION OF WALL/SITE: This wall is a single tier, concrete masonry unit (CMU) retaining wall approximately 100-feet in length with a maximum exposed height of about 7.5-feet. The wall is located on the eastern shore of Bohns Point. DOCUMENT/INFORMATION REVIEW No documents were provided. CONCLUSION In summary, I consider the structural condition of this retaining wall to be poor when compared to others of similar age and construction type. The wall is reaching the end of its expected useful life. Replacement should be anticipated in the next few years. This professional opinion is based on the information that you provided (verbal, photos, documentation) and my non-destructive observations at the site. Keep in mind that without invasive investigation, such as described above in scope of service, not everything about the condition of the existing retaining wall can be known. Further, improper water control, flood events, or extensive soil saturation can quickly change the condition of a retaining wall. Opinions and recommendations in this report are limited to the scope of work. This report has been prepared in strict confidence with you as our client. Reliance upon our report by other parties is strictly prohibited. If you choose to share our report, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Engineer from any third-party action. No reproduction or re-use is permitted without express written consent. Further, we will not release this report to anyone without your permission. If additional documentation or information is made available for review, I reserve the right to amend or add to the opinions and observations presented in this report. 1720 Bohns Point Road, Wayzata, Minnesota April 25, 2022 Page | 4 Please call with any additional questions you may have.

February 25, 2022 “1720 Bohns Point Rd LLC” Attn: Christian Harker 1725 Bohns Point Rd Orono MN 55391 Re: City Code Violations at 1720 Bohns Pt Rd Dear Mr. Harker The City of Orono received a complaint regarding the reconstruction of an accessory building (“pump house”) located within the 75-foot setback from the lake without proper permits / approvals on your property addressed 1720 Bohns Point Road. In response, I inspected your property on February 8, 2022, and observed the newly constructed pump house and retaining walls in violation of Orono’s City Code. After further investigation we have determined that the pump house was reconstructed with a larger footprint and expanded rooflines; new retaining walls were constructed in within the setback. None of the noted expansions/improvements are permitted by City Code and require variances granted by the City Council in order to remain as constructed. Further, permits are required for this type of work. Your immediate attention to this matter is required. The violations cited on the above premises are as follows: • Sec. 78-1279. - Placement of buildings and structures on lots. Subd 1.) Pump house within the 75-foot setback from the OHWL of the lake Subd 5.) Retaining wall within 75-feet of the OHWL of the lake Subd 6.) Pump house within the average lakeshore setback • Sec. 78-1680. - Hardcover restriction zones. Pump house and retaining wall hardcover are located within the 75-foot setback from the OHWL • Sec. 86.66. –Required. Subd a.) Permits required for building and retaining walls The expanded portions of the pump house (larger building footprint and new roof encroachments) and the new retaining walls must be removed OR an application for after-the-fact variances must be submitted by or before March 23, 2022. (Note if after-the-fact variances are granted after-the-fact building permits will be required.) Failure to comply with the above requirements by March 23, 2022 will result in this matter being forwarded to the City’s attorney for legal action. Please feel free to contact me at 952.249.4602 or by email at loakden@ci.orono.mn.us if you have any questions on the above requirements. Sincerely, CITY OF ORONO Laura Oakden Planner Frequently Asked Questions What is code enforcement? The Orono City Council has established goals and expectations for the general health, safety, welfare, and aesthetic standard of the community. These expectations are adopted as law in the City Code. Planning, Zoning, Building staff and Police Officers provide enforcement services for violations of the City Code that impact the safety and quality of life of the community. While code enforcement primarily maintains quality of life standards, it also plays an important role in the early identification and mitigation of unsafe exterior hazards, public health hazards, and compliance with humane pet standards. How is the complaint process initiated? The code enforcement process is typically initiated in one of several ways: 1) in response to a complaint by an individual, 2) as a consequence of an action (i.e. an application for a building permit or a zoning variance); or 3) observation of a code violation by the staff. Minnesota state law prohibits the release of the identity of individuals who make a complaint. Minn. Sat.§ 13.44 states: The identity of individuals who register complaints with government entities concerning violations of state or local ordinances concerning the use of real property are classified as confidential data, pursuant to section 13.02, subdivision 3. Why am I receiving a formal letter and not a courtesy phone call? Your property has one or more city code violations. The city, in most circumstances, is required to provide a written notification to the owner of the property. What happens if I ignore this order? Additional penalties including criminal prosecution are possible. Your immediate attention is required. Do not ignore this order. What if my tenant is the party responsible for creating the violation? You are receiving this notice because you are the owner of record and are ultimately responsible for ensuring that the violation(s) listed in this notice are corrected. You may also be subject to fees for corrective action initiated by the city and/ or fines for failure to comply.
