DRAFT <br />1/5/95 <br />4. The provisions of this section shall not apply to permitted uses which <br />normally require the removal of natural vegetation. <br />Subd. 2. Topographic Alterations/Grading and Filling. <br />A. Grading, filling and excavations necessary for the construction of structures, <br />sewage treatment systems, driveways and other uses permitted in the underlying <br />zoning district under validly issued construction permits for these facilities do not <br />require the issuance of a separate grading and filling permit. However, the grading <br />and filling standards in this Section must be incorporated into the issuance of permits <br />for construction of structures, sewage treatment systems and driveways. <br />B. Public roads and parking areas are regulated by Section 1102.09, Subd. 3 of this <br />ordinance. <br />C. Notwithstanding Items A and B above, a grading and filling permit» :* <br />r <br />dar a +i t Section 4` Subd.:: ::bf::the:C�:.:.:.> on 3rdinanc < will be required for: <br />1. the movement of more than ten (10) cubic yards of material on steep slopes <br />or within the shore impact zone; and <br />2. the movement of more than 50 cubic yards of material per acre. <br />D. The following considerations and conditions must be adhered to during the <br />issuance of construction permits, grading and filling permits, conditional use permits, <br />variances and subdivision approvals: <br />1. Grading or filling in any wetland must be evaluated to determine the extent <br />of impact to the functions and values of the wetland area in accordance with <br />Section 1104 of the City Code. This evaluation must also include a <br />determination of whether the wetland alteration being proposed requires <br />permits, reviews, or approvals by other local, state, or federal agencies such <br />as a watershed district, a local governmental unit, the Minnesota Department <br />of Natural Resources, or the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The <br />applicant will be so advised. <br />2. Alterations must be designed and conducted in a manner that ensures only <br />the smallest amount of bare ground is exposed for the shortest time possible. <br />Mulches or similar materials must be used, where necessary, for temporary <br />bare soil coverage, and a permanent vegetation cover must be established as <br />soon as possible; <br />3. Methods to minimize soil erosion and to trap sediments before they reach <br />any surface water feature must be used. Altered areas must be stabilized to <br />acceptable erosion control standards consistent with the field office technical <br />Page 22 <br />
