-300- Citv of Ramsey t/14/9'7 We are requesting a conditional use permit for the purpose of removing up to 2~0,000 cubic yards of sand fill from our property at 6210 Green Valley Road. We have submitted a plan showing contours of the existing hill as wel I as wetlands to the south. We plan to have a finished grade on the north slope of 874'0", with a 1% slope to the south, with a south slope elevation of not less than 8'71'0" This height is wel I above the l~O-year high water level of 863 0", per the DNR. We do not plan to interfere with any of the wet ands or Trott Brook, which is 350-4~¢' south of the 871' contouP. This hill has few trees on it, with the exception of about ~5 cedar trees and six oaks, some of which are dead. We plan to replant an equal number of spruce trees along the swale near the west line of the excavation. We plan to sell the sand, having the trucks that are hauling enter the property from Green Valley Road, using the proposed haul road to the excavation site, as shown on the site plan. A silt fence wi I I be maintained along the south side of the excavation adjacent to the wetlands. The topsoil will be removed and stockpiled with no more than 5¢4 of the site having the topsoil removed at one time. The topsoi I wi I I be used to restore the site. When the excavation is completed, ~e intend to use the property for agricultural purposes, with the finished grade well above the high-water level so as to leave t~e property suitable for building. We are requesting the conditional use permit for three to five years, with the option of receiving clean ¢i I , not to exceed 10,¢00 yards annually. Er ic and Kar la Thomson I I I I I I I I I I !
