Chuck will bring a draft next month. <br /> We need to reform and change our street design standards after the ordinance is amended. <br /> We need to get the public realm correct. <br /> PUBLIC HEARINGS: None. <br /> ADDITIONS OR DELETIONS TO AGENDA: <br /> ADD: New Business: <br /> Fleck Stormwater and Landscaping Plan. <br /> OPEN FORUM: <br /> Council Member Akerson informed the Planning Commission that the Library will be <br /> holding a brat sale August 3 &4 as a fundraiser at SuperValu. They are looking for <br /> volunteers from 11 am to 4 pm for one-hour shifts. You can sign up at the Library and it <br /> is a very good cause. <br /> NEW BUSINESS: <br /> Fleck Stormwater and Landscaping Plan: <br /> Mr. Marohn explained the non-conforming structure 50% addition and structural <br /> improvements to the existing cabin that recently took place. He presented the <br /> landscaping plan that had been submitted and explained that it doesn't meet the intent of <br /> the Planning Commission or City Code with the amount of grading and rock within the <br /> Shore Impact Zone. <br /> Mr. Marohn further explained the stormwater issue and the request in the Memorandum. <br /> He explained the retaining wall retention area north and northwest of the cabin,the <br /> stormwater retention area to the south of the addition, and their plan to plant wild flower <br /> seed for low or no maintenance. The concerns are the rock and fill to create the patio <br /> area. They plan to put in a rock wall but will shorten it. The rock wall will be boulders <br /> and end near the sidewalk. <br /> This plan is more than Staff can approve as grading. The area needs to be stabilized and <br /> fixed. This would improve the situation a lot. <br /> The quicker this gets fixed,the less damage is done. Staff was directed to give them a <br /> drop dead date. The boulders are not rip rap but create the retaining wall. Plantings will <br /> grow up naturally to hide the wall. Vegetation will be allowed to grow, as well as trees <br /> being planted. Bio-logs need to be in place now. <br /> Staff was directed to inform Ann Beaver, Cullen Lakes Association,what has been <br /> approved and why. <br /> MINUTES 3 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> June 21, 2012 <br />
