David Erotis 3436 40`h Street NE Buffalo, MN 55313 RE: Tree Removal at 2685 North Shore Drive Dear Mr. Erotis: The City has reviewed the landscaping plan you submitted for the walker residence at 2685 North Shore Drive. The City has ordinances that pertain to the tree and vegetation removal within 75' of the lake. The intent of the ordinances is to protect &preserve existing screening on the lakeshore. Trees with a diameter of 6 inches or more can be removed with a permit from the City provided that at least the equivalent number of replacement trees of a size that are found acceptable to the City staff are planted at the same setback from the shoreline as those removed. Dead trees can be removed without a permit but requires an inspection by City staff prior to removal. The City did not inspect the trees prior to removal and must now require replacement of the same size trees at the same setback from the lake as the existing trees that were removed. Please submit a revised plan for review. I also noted a stone path in the 0-75' zone. This plan and the plan you submitted to address the drainage issue show the path differently. Please submit a final plan on the stone path for approval. Enclosed is the ordinances that addresses Tree Removal and Stairways in the 0-75' zone. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at my office.
