We have the following comments with regards to engineering matters: • With the flat grades along the south lot line and the city's requirement that no stormwater be discharged to the fire lane, we recommend that grade staking and final grading be reviewed and approved by engineering staff in the field. • Grading is proposed along the north and south lot lines within the 75 foot lakeshore setback area. This grading is minor and necessary to maintain drainage to the lake. • Grading to remove an ice ridge is also proposed. Erosion and sediment control measures must be installed, inspectetl, and approved prior to starting any construction. If you have any questions please call me at(651) 604-4894. Yours very truly, BONESTR00 C -- , ' ---\ Darren Amundsen Cc: Tom Kellogg MEMORANDUM Date: December 3, 2010 To: Tom Kellogg, City Engineer From: Christine Mattson, Planning Assistant RE: Building Permit Number 2009-00048 Zoning Application 08-3370 1785 Concordia Street Please review the enclosed certificate of survey for 1785 Concordia Street and provide comments as soon as possible, but before Monday, December 13, 2010. For your information a new survey has been requested with the title changed to As-built, but we didn't want to delay the review process because of the wording error. Please call Melanie Curtis, Planning & Zoning Coordinator, at 952.249.4627 if you need additional information or if you have any questions on the attached information. Thank you, 2335 Highway 36 W St. Paul, MN 55113 Tel 651-636-4600 Fax 651-636-1311 www.bonestroo.com December 6, 2010 � Bonestroo Melanie Curtis Planning and Zoning Coordinator City of Orono Post Office Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323 Re: 1785 Concordia Street File No. 000139-10000-1 File No. 08-3370, 2009-00048 Dear Melanie: We have reviewed the as-built plans for the new home construction and grading at 1785 Concordia Street. The plan is dated 11-18-10. We have the following comments with regards to engineering matters: • The as-built grading plan shows no evidence of the proposed south lot line drainage swale in the approved grading plan. Greater detail should be provided along the south lot line to show drainage patterns or a field visit should be made to determine if additional grading is necessary. • Drainage patterns along the north lot line should be field-verified to ensure that the runoff is managed within the property. If you have any questions, please call me at(651) 604-4894 or send an email to darren.amundsenCa�bonestroo.com.

I've attached scanned copies of the building permit survey(also includes the grading for floodplain mitigation/CUP approval) as well as the as-built recently submitted for review. During his site visit Kellogg noted that—as indicated on the as-built—the ice ridge removal and floodplain mitigation grading has not been completed. P/ease have your surveyorsubmir cut and fill calculations based on the as-built grading plan. Additionally it appears that grading was done that extended into the City's fire lane which potentially creates a situation where stormwater discharges to the fire lane. While this doesn't appear to be problematic from a stormwater perspective, it was specifically called out in the engineer's review and comments on the building permit application as to be avoided. Is it the homeowner's intention in the future to complete this ice ridge removal? If so we need to assure that this work happens in a timely manner related directly to the CUP approval and building permit for the home. Otherwise, as it will expire with the conclusion of this project, it will require City Council approval. I cannot issue the C.O. at this time without resolution to the above issues. I've also attached our engineer's comments on the building permit review and the recent as-built review from December. Please call me to discuss if you have questions.
