,~OM : DF PECK CONSULTING PHONE NO. ' 484 7421 MaW. 26 1995 01:49PM <br /> <br />May 26, 1995 <br /> <br />Ms, Sylvia Frolik <br />Zoning Administrator <br />City of Ramsay <br />15153 Nowthen Blvd. <br />Ramsay, Mn. 55303 <br /> <br />Re'~ Grading and Mining Permits <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Prolik: <br /> <br /> In regards to North Fork's Appl].cations for certain Grading and Mining P~rmits <br />please be aavised as follows: <br /> <br /> The Application to regrade portions of Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8 in Block 3, Northfork <br />Links Addition is for the purpose of creating walkout building sites for these lots. <br />The lots were platted in 1991 and three have remained 8nsold and none have bean <br />built upon. North Fork's builders and salespeople believe that raising the grades <br />will help assure that upscale homes will eventually be built on these lots. <br /> <br /> Present grades on these lots range, generally from 880' to 882'. The grading <br />proposed is to to create front elevations of 887' on the building pads with a six '.'~ <br />foot drop to the walkout grade to the rear. These lots are all approximately 200' <br />wide and the created building pads would not be much more than 80' in width with <br />slopes of perhaps 8' to l' extending towards the property lines. An 879.8' elevation <br />would be maintained along the lot line between Lots 7 and 8 to guaranty drainage <br />to a catch basin located along Andrie Street. No rear elevation would be lass than <br />881'. No materail will be imported to or'exported from'the ~ite.:'All driuew~ grades <br />will be less then 8%. " <br /> <br /> The Application to'regrade portions of Lots 3 and 4, Block 2, Northfork Lake <br />Addition is again for the purpose of creating more attractive building sites. In <br />order to preserve the trees located on Lot 2, Block 2, the home built on that lo~ <br />was moved towards the'east property line. This, plus the Size of the homes expected <br />to be built on Lots 3 and 4 cramp the home sites and the sight lines. Moving the <br />walkout grades closer to Inverness Lane would give owners of~..Lots ~ through 5 <br />greater privacy and shorten somewhat the required length of driveways for Lots 3 <br />and 4. Septic systems.would be lo~ated further from the lake. <br /> <br /> The grading plan would require the removal of approximately 16,000 ~ubi¢ y~rds <br />of material. Such material would be r~moved by belly-dumps wes~ along. Iav~rnass <br />and through the golf course. To minimize the impact on exisbing homes such e~port <br />could be ~one in one or two moves.
