By: City Enginpeer Steve Jankowski and Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik ' Background: On May 16, 1995, the�City received an application from North Fork, Inc. to grade and export soils from Lots 3 and 4, Block 2, Northfork Lake Addition. The purpose of the project is to create more attractive building sites. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) Site lobation map b) Applicant's letter and attached Grading Plan c) PropoJed findings of fact d) Propoted conditional use permit ' Notification: Conditional Use Permits are required to be subjected to public hearings with all properties within 350 feet being notifirpd of the public hearing. In this case, Staff attempted to notify all property owners within 600 feet of the subject property of the public hearing conducted by the Planning Commission on Jund 6. There were no written or verbal comments received from residents at the hearing. Observations: ' The applicant is pro osing to strip the topsoil over an approximate two acre area and remove and export approximate 16,000 cubic yards of materials to create walkout building pads closer to the front of the two affected lots. The material would be removed from the site by hauling belly dumps down Inverness westward for a distance of approximately 800 feet, and from there would be hauled across o Clot and golf course property to the northern boundary of the Burlington Northern right of 4y, and then onto 153rd southward to U.S. #10. The applicant would also be allowed to utilize thlo material in the grading of the outlot in accordance with the approved grading plan. This haul roue would minimize the impact to the residents of Northfork. F The Planning Commission has recommended that the grading and hauling operation and restoration be confined to a four week period from start to finish. r Silt fence and oth ' erosion control measures should be required to protect adjacent properties. The revised gradinjwould not affect existing drainage patterns. ' Recommendatiof►: City Staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of th permit.
