The <br />proposed haul route would be from the southwest comer of the property, due south to a gravel <br />road which services City Wells #3 and #4, and east out to Ramsey Boulevard. The applicant <br />indicated that the ultimate deposition of the subject property would be the development of single <br />family homes in accordance with the covenants for Pineview Estates 2nd Addition. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski stated a proposed silt fence alone would not be adequate to prevent <br />erosion into the wetland. He recommended that the permit require the construction of a sump <br />area upstream of the silt fence, having a storage volume capable of storing a one-inch storm. The <br />sump should have an outlet control device approved by the City Engineer. The finished grade <br />slopes on the west and south boundary of the site are proposed to be 25%. Section 9.4.18, subd. <br />11, of the City Code states that no finished slope shall exceed 12%. The slopes should be <br />flattened to reach a maximum slope of 12%. <br /> <br />Public Hearing/Planning Commission/July 7, 1998 <br /> Page I of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
