DRAFT Revised 1/5/95, 3/1/95, 3/24/95 with Section 4, Subd. 33 of the City Zoning Ordinance, will be required for: 1. the movement of more than ten (10) cubic yards of material on steep slopes or within the shore impact zone; and 2. the movement of more than 50 cubic yards of material per acre. D. The following considerations and conditions must be adhered to during the issuance of construction permits, grading and filling permits, conditional use permits, variances and subdivision approvals: 1. Grading or filling in any wetland must be evaluated to determine the extent of impact to the functions and values of the wetland area in accordance with Section 1104 of the City Code. This evaluation must also include a determination of whether the wetland alteration being proposed requires permits, reviews, or approvals by other local, state, or federal agencies such as a watershed district, a local governmental unit, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, or the United States Army Corps of Engineers. The applicant will be so advised. 2. Alterations must be designed and conducted in a manner that ensures only the smallest amount of bare ground is exposed for the shortest time possible. Mulches or similar materials must be used, where necessary, for temporary bare soil coverage, and a permanent vegetation cover must be established as soon as possible; 3. Methods to minimize soil erosion and to trap sediments before they reach any surface water feature must be used. Altered areas must be stabilized to acceptable erosion control standards consistent with the field office technical guides of the Anoka County Soil and Water Conservation District and the United States Soil Conservation Service; 4. Fill or excavated material must not be placed in a manner that creates an unstable slope. Plans to place fill or excavated material on steep slopes must be reviewed by qualified professionals for continued slope stability and must not create finished sloped of 30 percent or greater; 5. Any alterations below the ordinary high water level of the waterbodies described in 1002.05, Subd. 1B must first be authorized by the Commissioner under Minnesota Statutes, Section 103G.245; 6. Alterations of topography must only be allowed if they are necessary to allow a defined permitted accessory or conditional use within the underlying zoning district and do not adversely affect adjacent or nearby properties; and 7. Placement of natural rock riprap, including associated grading of the shoreline Page 21
