As stated in the City's shoreland ordinance, placement and design of roads and driveways is to achieve maximum screening from view from public waters, meet structure setbacks, and avoid shore impact zones or minimize adverse impacts if placed in the impact zone. 8. The project will require considerable clearing of trees and other vegetation for a bridge, an access road, house pads, and stormwater management facilities in the shore impact zone and elsewhere on the site. 9. The project will require the construction of a bridge of approximately 300 feet in length. The City will need definitive information describing the bridge type, materials, soils, and construction methods. The City must assess the potential impacts of the bridge on wetlands, public waters, other elements of the natural environmental as well as on existing residential development. 10.
