LAKE ELMO COUNCIL MINUTES - 9/6/83 Page 6 Adopt Resolution 83- 58 M/S/P Fraser/Morgan to accept engineer's recommendation to award work for Jamaca Court improvements to low bidder (Ashbach Construction Company). (5 ayes) C. Valley Branch Watershed District Request to Modify Olson Lake Outlet - REF: Larry Bohrer, TKDA, letter dated 9/l/83 regarding "BVWD Request to Modify Lake Olson Outlet... Commission No. 7113-83.") • Bohrer reported that City Council alternatives had been reviewed and most realistic would be to slow water rate flow from Lake Olson at reasonable rate to Lake Jane by cutting hole in the side of the Lake Olson weir and, by means of a valve, be able to lower Lakes Olson and DeMontreville to elevation 918.0. This will gain about 400 acre-feet of storage upstream of Lake Jane and allow the electric lift pump to operate sooner and longer. The Board of Managers have applied to the DNR for the work. There may be some objection from shoreland owners on Olson and DeMontreville since lakes will recede to elevation 918 faster than at present. Due to strong feelings from the audience on alternatives, Eder suggested a hearing be set. M/S/P Eder/Morgan to set hearing (nonofficial) so that all sides can be heard and to extend DNR time period for submission of comments from Lake Elmo. (5 ayes) D. Lake Jane Estates, Neudahl Preliminary Plat - (REF: Larry Bohrer letter dated 8/22/83 regarding "Preliminary Plat Review ...Commission No. 7113-83.") Bohrer said that engineers' conclusions have been calculated as to amount of runoff and that drainage meets City and Watershed requirements. Adopt Resolution 83-59 M/S/P Morgan/Fraser to accept recommendation of City Engineers and Lake Elmo Planning Commission regarding approval of the proposed preliminary plat for Lake Jane Estates, 2nd. Add. (5 ayes) E. Shoreland Permit, DNR Access, Lake DeMontreville - Bohrer said two issues have yet to be addressed: a landscaping plans and (b) all dimensions. Recommended that staff meet with DNR and public meeting be held. M/S/P Morgan/Mazzara to defer this item until all proper information has been received. (5 ayes) F. Shoreland Permit, Tom Osborne, 10891 32nd Street North • Bohrer - Mr. Osborne is proposing to construct a 16' x 16' utility room addition onto his residence since basement has seepage problems. A variance would be required since floor is above minimum building elevation on Lake Elmo. (REF: DNR letter dated 8/31/83 stating they have no objection to granting the shoreland permit.) 9 Eder - Surveyor has to put elevations in as required by code. M/S/P Eder/Morgan to grant Mr. Osborne a Variance and a Shoreland Permit for an addition, to be used for utility purposes only, to existing house. (5 ayes)
