The grading plan and conditional use permit has been submitted to the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) for their review and approval. A conditional use permit may be issued if all the criteria have been met as defined in the resolution of this report. Section 3, Subdivision 11 of the zoning ordinance for Earth Moving and Land Reclamation provides a list of conditions as a prerequisite that the City may use for granting a permit. Those conditions that the City may deem necessary are as follows: 1. Properly fence any pit or excavation, and barricade entrances to prevent the general public from depositing garbage or refuse. The site is fenced and occupied by the facilities' staff. 2. Slope the banks, and otherwise guard and keep any pit or excavation in such condition as not to be dangerous because of sliding or caving banks. There will be no pits and excavation shall be staged to prevent large banks. 3. Properly drain, fill, or level off any pit or excavation so as to make the same safe and healthful as the permitting authority may determine. Again, no open pits are proposed for this project /site. 4. Limit the depth of such excavation to an elevation no lower than the minimum floor elevation for building construction as established by the City Engineer, so as not to diminish development potential of the parcel. There is not excavation below the surrounding grade, and the potential development of the site will not be diminished. 5. Limit any fill material to clean fill, defined as rock, sand, gravel, clay, or other like and similar non - decomposable material. Concrete, asphalt, metal, wood, and other debris shall be prohibited. All fill used on the site will be inspected to determine that it meets city standards. 6. Require that all decomposable material, or other unsuitable foundation material, be removed from an area before deposition of fill begins. All construction will be done on suitable fill materials. 7. Prepare a site plan showing existing and proposed grade elevations and effect of storm water drainage on adjacent areas. The submitted plans show the existing and proposed grade elevations as well as drainage directions. 8. Specify a time when the excavation or land reclamation project shall be completed. The project is proposed to be completed within a 3 week period (weather permitting) after approval by the City Council.
