LRRWMO Meeting Minutes. • March 21, 1996 Page 6 CONSIDERATION OF COMMiJNICATIONS Review Correspondence in Chair's Folder Jankowski reviewed the correspondence and notices contained in the Chair's Folder. Informational; no action required. Cease & Desist Order - Ramsev Jankowski explained that a Cease and Desist Order was issued to Ramsey to take some fill out of a location constructed for a park trail which, during construction, became a second access and resulted in the fill spreading into the wetland. He advised the City has responded by indicating their intention to remove as much as fill as needed to nan-ow the width of the trail. If not possible, they will apply for a mitigation or board-walk the trail. Construction Permit -Anoka Jankowski reviewed the DNR request for review and comment on the Jeanne Wilkinson application • to construct a 64 foot long and six foot high treated timber retaining wall for control of erosion along the Rum River at 3532 Rum River Drive. Schultz questioned the life-expectancy of a timber retaining wall. Weaver asked if the LRRWMO engineer should review this request. Jankowski suggested a response be sent indicating this is a significant project and encourage review by the DNR and Army Corp of Engineers to maintain adequate erosion control during construction. Haas noted the building code may require an engineer's design since it is a large-sized retaining wall. Schultz noted that LRRWMO review would require a permit and since this is under DNR review, perhaps that added expense is not needed. Ferguson agreed and stated he believes this will be reviewed by the DNR. Haas questioned the length of time this project will be under construction. Since this is a DNR permiit, consensus was reached to send a letter of response expressing concerns as detailed in discussion.
