The survey shows the walls lakeward of the average lakeshore setback will not exceed four-feet. If any walls end up being constructed four-feet or higher lakeward of the average lakeshore setback line they will need to be reduced in height prior to as-built and certificate of occupancy approval.

SEPTIC SYSTEM All parts of the pool, including the apron or deck and equipment must be at least 20 feet from the drainfield and 10 feet from other parts of the septic system. WETLANDS Investigation into possible wetlands should be done early in the planning process as it will take several months for a wetland delineation to be completed. The City of Orono requires a 35 foot setback from a delineated wetland edge for all structures and hardcover. All wetlands within 150 feet of a proposed project will require a wetland delineation. For assistance in determining if there may be a wetland on the property, contact the Planning Department at 952-249-4620. MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT(MCWD� PERMITS Your project may or may not trigger the Minnehaha Creek Watershed DistricYs (MCWD) permitting requirements. Contact the MCWD directly at 952-471-0590 to discuss their permitting requirements. FENCES AND DECKS The City of Orono does not require a fence around a pool or hot tub. If you choose to erect a fence it must comply with the height requirements. (See the Fences information sheets.) A deck or patio is not required around a pool. ACCESSORY BUILDINGS Pool houses and pool equipment buildings must comply with setbacks for accessory buildings and require a separate building permit. A toilet and sink may be installed in a pool house but a shower/bathtub and/or guest house require a conditional use permit. Last Updated: January 2014 This is an information sheet.

Documents include the Certificate of Surveys prepared by Gronberg dated July 22, 2013 and June 12, 2014. Following are our comments for your consideration: 1. The retaining walls on the southwest side of the house have been significantly revised, and it is unclear what proposed elevations are. The Survey should be revised to provide more detail for all proposed retaining wall work. Provide top of wall and bottom of wall elevations in key locations(i.e. grade changes and alignment changes). Walls four feet or greater in height must be designed by a Professional Engineer, and plans submitted for review and approval. Multi-level walls spaced less than double the height of the bottom wall apart shall be considered one wall, and the height shall be determined from the base of the bottom wall to the top of the upper wall.
