~'i]00 ACRES OF COUNTRY PRIVACY October 26, 1995 Ms. Sylvia FrOlik Zoning Administrator City of RamseY 15153 Nowthen Blvd. Ramsey, Minnesota 55303 Re: Revised Grading and Drainage Plan Part of Northfork Fifth Addition Dear Ms. Frolik: Under separate cover you should have received copies of the revised Grading and Drainage Plan and Phasing Plan for the non- final platted portions of Northfork Fifth Addition. This revised Grading and Drainage Plan is the same as the plan you reviewed on October 17th with the exception that this copy includes updated street names. Since the original Grading and Drainage Plan which was submitted with the plat of Northfork Fifth and under which Northfork Lake was excavated has expired, North Fork is required to obtain an add~itional permit to complete unfinished Lot and Lake excavation. [The approved Preliminary Plat of Northfork Fifth included the ~construction of a second lake. Portions of that excavation have already taken place. The revised grading is to be performed on the same number of lots as included in this portion of the original Northfork Fifth Plat. The only road change is to move the cul-de-sac included in Phase #11 somewhat to the south to facilitate better drainage to the unfinished lake. The revised Grading Plan calls for cuts of approximately 890,000 yards of sand and fills of about 70,000 yards. To achieve this plan, approximately 820,000 yards of excess sand needs to be exported from ~he site. Of this amount approximately 500,000 yards will Come from the lake and 320,000 yards from the finished lots. The 500,000 yards from the lake is approximately the same as included under the original Grading Plan for the second lake and its possible extension. Any additional export is due to the creation of walk-out lots. Experience has indicated that to build homes of an upscale nature walk-outs are almost mandatory.
