<br />Pequot Lakes Staff Report 4(a) - 4 <br />March 19, 2015 <br /> <br />2. All excavation and extraction shall conform to the following: <br /> <br /> A. Distance from property lines. No quarrying operation shall be <br />carried on or any stock pile placed closer than 50 feet from any <br />property line, unless a greater distance is specified by the CUP <br />where such is deemed necessary for the protection of adjacent <br />property. This distance requirement may be reduced to 25 feet only <br />with written consent of the owners of the affected adjacent non- <br />residence property. Proof of said agreement shall be submitted as a <br />part of the application and maintained in City files for all approved <br />CUPs for extractive uses. Without such agreement, the buffer area <br />may be used only under the following circumstances: <br /> <br />(1) The buffer area may contain the haul road if the City <br />determines that, for safety purposes, the access to the use is <br />best served in that area. <br /> <br />(2) The haul road may be located in the buffer area to avoid <br />wetlands or other sensitive environmental resources. <br /> <br />(3) If authorized in an approved reclamation plan, one half of <br />the buffer area may be used for the storage of topsoil and <br />for final sloping. All topsoil storage areas shall be seeded to <br />prevent erosion and dust. Berms, including those consisting <br />of topsoil to be used for reclamation, may be placed in the <br />buffer area, but they shall be seeded and mulched in a <br />manner that prevents dust from blowing onto adjacent <br />properties. <br /> <br /> B. Distance from public right of way. In the event that the site of the <br />mining or quarrying operation is adjacent to the right of way of any <br />public street or road, no part of such operation shall take place <br />closer than 50 feet to the nearest line of such right of way. <br /> <br /> C. Fencing. Fencing shall be erected and maintained around the entire <br />site or excavated portions thereof and shall be of a type specified in <br />the CUP. <br /> <br /> D. Equipment. All equipment and machinery shall be operated and <br />maintained in such a manner as to minimize dust, noise and <br />vibration. Power drives or power producing machinery, not <br />including vehicles, shall not be housed or operated less than 1,000 <br />feet from a residential use district. <br /> <br /> E. Processing. Crushing, concrete mixing, washing, refining, or other
