RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 6772
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby approves the requested CUP as described above based on one or more of the following
findings of fact concerning the Property:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #17-3939. The analysis contained within
staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the above
mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings are
hereby incorporated by reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR -1C One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
3. Applicant has applied for the following approval[s]:
a. Conditional Use Permit for Grading over 500 cubic yards within the Shoreland.
b. Conditional Use Permit for Grading over 50 cubic yards within the 75 -foot Setback
from the lake.
4. The plans provided by the Applicant include landscaping solutions to deal with site
drainage and slope stabilization; the scope of work includes subsurface drainage
infrastructure along with grading and vegetation.
5. In considering this application for CUP, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed CUP upon
the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions,
light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in
the surrounding area.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS:
1) Consistent with the community management plan; The intent for the proposed grading
is residential in nature, is consistent with the permitted uses for the Property, and is
compliant with the zoning code and comprehensive plan.
2) Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as
required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; The proposed slope restoration,
grading, and plantings are residential in nature and are compliant with the zoning code.
3) Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management; This statement
is true.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 6772
4) Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; This statement
is true.
5) Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; This
statement is true.
6) Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is
planned to be used in the future; The proposed restoration work within the 75 -foot
setback area should have no impact on surrounding lands and is intended to avoid
further damage. Drainage patterns for runoff leaving the adjacent sites will not be
significantly altered. Once completed the existing staircase and new plantings should
be the only visual changes when viewed from the lake.
7) Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character is
called for in the community management plan; The proposed restoration work within
the 75 -foot setback area is intended to avoid further damage. Drainage patterns for
runoff leaving the site will not be significantly altered. The import and export of materials
is necessary to restore the slope failure, once completed, it will have no impact on
surrounding lands. The slope, once vegetated and landscaped should not have an
adverse impact on the neighborhood or the lake.
8) Compatible with the character of buildings and site improvements in the surrounding
area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan;
The Applicant is proposing to remove approximately 300 cubic yards of unstable
material and replace with approximately 500 cubic yards of clean, angular soil to
stabilize the slope and aid in stormwater management. It is likely adjacent lakeshore
properties will not be impacted. The transfer of materials on and off the site will be
reviewed and monitored closely by the City's engineer to assure that adjacent
properties and the lake are not adversely impacted.
9) Not expected to substantially impair the use and enjoyment of the property in the area
or have a materially adverse impact on the property values in the area when compared
to the impairment or impact of generally permitted uses; The proposed use of the
Property will not be changing as a result of the proposed grading activity so there should
be no change in the use and enjoyment of adjacent properties.
10) Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and
activities likely to disturb surrounding uses; The finished slope will be vegetated and
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 677 2
landscaped; it should blend into the Property. The project, once completed, should not
result in undesirable views requiring mitigation.
11) Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes,
dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means; This statement is
true.
12) Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that cause
a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or unsafe
access; The Applicant will be required to keep debris off of the public roadways. The
noise resulting from the trucks hauling and equipment moving the material in and around
the site should be minimized to the extent possible. The grading project will be monitored
by the City Engineer and planning staff so as to minimize nuisances during the project.
13) Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and
to minimize environmental impact; The project has been designed to take into account
the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and to minimize environmental
impact. The long term effect of the project should result in minimal environmental
impacts. The project will be monitored by the City to prevent erosion from the site.
14) All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or onto the public
right-of-way or neighboring residential uses or districts; there should be no lighting or
glare resulting from the grading project; and
15) Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare. This statement is
true.

Subject: Bailey - Plantings
Ron,
I have reviewed the documents that were sent over to us and spoke with George about some plant options we
would suggest for the slope. Below are a few I'd suggest:
Red -Osier Dogwood (shrub) - cornus stolonifera
Ninebark (shrub) - physocarpus capitatus
Snowberry (shrub) - sympthoricarpos albus
GroLow Sumac (groundcover) - rhus aromatica
Crown Vetch (groundcover) - coronilla varia
Allium (native wildflower) - allium stellatum
RECEIVED
Yarrow (native wildflower) - achillea millefolium
Blue Rug Juniper (low growing evergreen) - juniperus horizontalis 'WiltoniiAPR 19 2017'
CITY OF ORONO
There a quite a few options available but these are the few I suggest that are easy to get and seem to do well in
our area. I tried to give a variety of both shrubs, wildflower, and groundcover that all do well in a very sunny
climate. Not only is having a variety nice aesthetically, but it has it's benefits with erosion as well. Having the
variety of sizes will do a good job of breaking up/slowing down rainfall as it falls and hits the slope which in
turn minimizes erosion during a rainfall event.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description
Final Grade, Inc. (Final Grade) is preparing to reconstruct the failed slope at 2807 Casco
Point Road in Orono, Minnesota. We understand that Barr Engineering previously
evaluated the slope failure and presented the owner with several different design options
to repair the slope failure.
Final Grade retained Haugo GeoTechnical Services to perform a geotechnical exploration
to evaluate the suitability of site soil and groundwater conditions and provide our opinion
on the proposed slope reconstruction at the site.
1.2 Purpose
The purpose of this geotechnical exploration was to characterize subsurface soil and
groundwater conditions and provide our opinion on the proposed slope reconstruction at
the site.
13 Site Description
The project site is located at 2807 Casco Point Road in Orono, MN. The site currently
contains one residential home that is located about 55 feet northeast of the crest (top) of an
existing slope along Lake Minnetonka.
The house area and backyard of the project site is relatively flat with the surface elevations
at the soil boring locations ranging from about 970 feet to 9691h feet. The slope is relatively
steep and is indicated at about 40 degrees on the Barr Engineering documents provided.
The height of the slope from the crest to Lake Minnetonka is about 30 feet. The slope face
generally contains small trees and brush with an existing stairway to Lake Minnetonka.
Portions of the slope face failed during a period of heavy rain in June 2014. The slope
failure was not repaired and portions were covered with plastic sheeting.
1.4 Scope of Services
Our services were performed in accordance with the Haugo GeoTechnical Services, LLC
proposal 16-0978 dated November 15, 2016. Our scope of services was performed under
the terms of our General Conditions and limited to the following tasks:
• Completing two (2) standard penetration test soil borings and extending each to a
nominal depth of 40 feet.
• Recording GPS coordinates of the soil boring locations and elevations.
• Visually/manually classifying the samples recovered from the soil borings.
• Performing laboratory tests on selected samples.

42.
A field log of each boring was prepared by the HG'S drill crew. The logs contained visual
classifications of the soil materials encountered during drilling, as well as the driller's
interpretation of the subsurface conditions between samples and water observation notes.
The final boring logs included with this report represent an interpretation of the field logs
and include modifications based on visual/manual method observation of the samples.
The soil boring logs, general terminology for soil description and identification, and
classification of soils for engineering purposes are also included in the appendix. The soil
boring logs identify and describe the materials encountered, the relative density or
consistency based on the Standard Penetration resistance (N -value, "blows per foot") and
groundwater observations.
The strata changes were inferred from the changes in the samples and auger cuttings. The
depths shown as changes between strata are only approximate. The changes are likely
transitions, variations can occur beyond the location of the boring.
3.0 RESULTS
3.1 Soil Conditions
The soil borings encountered about 1 foot of topsoil at the surface. The topsoil consisted
of sandy lean clay that was black in color.
Beneath the topsoil, the borings encountered native alluvial lean clay soils that extended
to around 4 feet below the ground surface. Penetration resistance values (N -values),
shown as blows per foot (bpf) on the boring logs, of 8 blows per foot (bpf) were recorded
in the lean clays which indicate a medium consistency.
Underlying the topsoil and alluvial clay soils, the soil borings encountered glacial till soils
that extended to the boring termination depths of about 40 feet. The glacial till soils
consisted mainly of clayey sand, with upper layers of sandy lean clays and lean clays
encountered at boring SB -1. N -values of 10 to 26 bpf were recorded in the glacial till soils.
These values indicate the clayey sands had a medium dense relative density with upper
loose zones while the sandy lean clays/lean clays had a stiff consistency.
3.2 Groundwater
Groundwater was encountered in both soil borings after drilling between depths of about
31 % to 34 feet which correspond to elevations of about 936 to 938. Water levels were
measured on the dates as noted on the boring logs and the period of water level
observations was relatively short. Given the cohesive nature of the glacial till soils
encountered, it is likely that insufficient time was available for possible perched
groundwater to seep into the bore hole and rise to its hydrostatic level.
The Minnesota DNR reports the Ordinary High Water Level (OHW) of Lake Minnetonka
to be around an elevation of 929 % feet.

6!7
Groundwater monitoring wells or piezometers would be required to more accurately
determine water levels. Seasonal and annual fluctuations in groundwater levels should be
expected.
3.3 Laboratory Tests
Laboratory moisture content and percent passing the Number 200 sieve (P-200 content)
tests were performed on selected samples recovered from the soil borings. A summary of
the laboratory testing is presented in the Table 1 below. The moisture contents of the
samples are also provided on the soil boring logs opposite the sample tested.

3.4 OSHA Soil Classification
The soils encountered in the borings consisted of both granular (sand) and cohesive (clay)
soils. The cohesive soils will generally be Type B soils under Department of Labor
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines, while the granular
soils will generally classify as Type C soils.
