Please note your project probably won't trigger the MCWDs permitting requirements, i.e. a delineation, but it does trigger the City's requiremenis. To find a Ifst of delineators go to www.minnehahacreek.or�/delineators If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Christine� From: Christine Mattson Sent:Thursday, March 31, 2016 10:18 AM To: 'Stephen's Mail'<sckennedy08@gmail.com> Subject: 627 Ferndale Road North Stephen, Following up on our conversation yesterday regarding the possibility of an accessory structure to be located behind (to the south of) the principal structure, I have attached additional information for you. The copy of the survey you provided is from 1982. There is an updated survey in the file from 1998 showing a different boundary (also reflected on Hennepin County parcel annotations attachment). The wetland map indicates a wetland on the property (copy attached); however the map does not depict the delineated edge of the wetland. The survey from 1998 shows a drainage easement. This may or may not coincide with the actual wetland. City Code Section 78-1605(c) states any project within 150' of a wetland must be delineated. Please contact the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for more information on wetlands and hiring a wetland delineator. I have also included a copy of the as-built drawing of the current septic location from our file. If you would be interested in placing the accessory structure forward of the principal structure (between the house and the road) a variance would be required. Reference City Code Section 78-1435. A variance was granted in 1998 to allow the placement of the current accessory structure. A copy of variance approval resolution number 4054 is attached. Attached is a copy of the Zoning Permit Application for an accessory structure under 200 sf in size. If over 200 sf it will require a building permit application, also attached. A revised survey will likely be necessary; the survey requirements are listed in the Building Permit application. Your property is located within Tier 3 of the Stormwater Quality Overlay District which allows 35%of the gross area of the lot to be covered in hardcover. Hardcover calculations will be required with any application submitted, attached is the City's Hardcover information packet. �
