PO Box 665 Watertown, MN 55388-0665 Re: 825 Willow View Drive Building Permit Application#2012-01198 On November 26, 2012 the City received a building permit application for a deck addition. I contacted you because the plans and survey submitted did not match. During our phone conversation you indicated the deck was the only project to be constructed at this time and I informed you the survey and plans must reflect only the extent of the the project being proposed today, not future projects. On December 11, 2012 we received an updated survey, showing two projects, the deck and a paver patio. The following items must be submitted or revised in order for your application to be considered complete and for the plan review to continue: 1. Certificate of Survey. Please have the surveyor provide the cut and fill earthwork calculations for the paver patio and the top and bottom wall elevations for the proposed retaining wall. If the amount of earthwork exceeds 50 cubic yards or 5,000 square feet our wetland regulations will apply and a wetland delineation will be required. 2. Zoning Permit Application. The patio/earth work will require a Zoning Permit Application, copy attached. 3. Wetland Delineation. A Manage 3 wetland exists on the subject property; according to Orono's City Code Chapter 78 Article XI Wetlands Protection, manage 3 wetlands require a 16.5 foot wide vegetative buffer. If the proposed patio project triggers the administration of the City's Wetlands Protection regulations, a wetland delineation will be required. If a wetland delineation is required, we are unable to proceed until a wetland delineation report is submitted. The wetland delineation must be approved by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD). The delineated edge of the wetland must be shown on the survey, along with the required 16.5 foot buffer and 20 foot structure setback from the buffer. Please note, the MCWD has different buffer regulations/triggers than the City does. 4. Escrow & Escrow Agreement. Permits involving grading and/or review by the City's engineer require submittal of an escrow and an escrow agreement. The purpose of the escrow is to guarantee reimbursement to the City for out-of-pocket costs incurred during the review of your plans. Additionally this escrow will guarantee conformance with City Code Chapter 79 relating to erosion control and stormwater. The required escrow amount for this project is $2,500. The escrow agreement is enclosed. The property owner must sign the escrow agreement and submit a check for$2,500. 5. Wetland Escrow & Escrow Agreement. If a wetland buffer is required a separate escrow and escrow agreement will be required until the vegetation is established. The escrow amount is determined by our wetland specialist and is based on the amount of work required.
