Christine Mattson =- - <br /> From: Brett Eid m [BEidem@minne�iaha eek.org] <br /> Sent: Tuesda , September 30, 2014 10: 9 AM <br /> To: Christi Mattson <br /> Cc: Thoma Dietrich <br /> Subject: 1098 Lo a Linda, Orono <br /> Attachments: PP RG C e t. iver Design.pdf; photo 1.JPG; photo S.JPG <br /> Hi Christine, <br /> I recently had a meeting with the Tolliver's, who live at 1098 Loma Linda Ave. I have transitioned positions within the <br /> District from our permitting department to our education department as our cost share specialist.This email I suppose <br /> relates to both.The Tolliver's are having issues with runoff on their property, a large amount of which is coming from <br /> the street. It is eroding the area just beyond the street in the SW corner of their property, and it appears that the runoff <br /> is then draining to the boat launch just S of her property which I believe is city land. <br /> They brought in a plan they had designed for them to mitigate the erosion from runoff from Metro Conservation <br /> Services in 2010, which showed a pervious paver strip followed by a bioswale and then finally into a raingarden before <br /> leaving their property.They were saying that the city did not allow them to install the project a few years ago because <br /> the city saw pervious pavers still as a hard surface increase. Is this still true today? <br /> We see benefits in their project and believe it would qualify for cost share funding next spring. We have already passed <br /> the deadline for residential cost share funding this year. I would also be interested in have a discussion with the city <br /> about the launch and see if there are any opportunities there to cost share on a project. It appears that gravel is needed <br /> continuously to minimize gullying and wash outs at the landing. There could also be an opportunity for a project that <br /> could minimize the erosion and sediment that is in such a close proximity to the lake. <br /> Please let me know who I can talk to about these opportunities and what the city's regulation or stand on the projects <br /> would be. <br /> Thanks, <br /> Brett Eidem � Cost Share Program Specialist � www.minnehahacreek.org <br /> 15320 Minnetonka Boulevard � Minnetonka, MN 55345 � Office: (952)641-4523 <br /> � MINNEHAHA �REEK <br /> WAT��SHEp I�ISTRIGT <br /> au�trtr�Sr w�xeR,iler,�uTx ai Ktr! <br /> 1 <br />
