LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES NOVEMBER 3, 1987 PAGE 8 <br />Since Ruth's First Addition was platted during a period of low water, <br />the lot lines now extend out into the water. It appears that the <br />Eisele's excavation will be performed on the portion of their property <br />which is in the flood plain. <br />Bohrer has no objection to the permit, but offered the following <br />comments: <br />1. The north line of Lot 4 has an angle point and changes <br />directions just east of Eisele's house. This lotline <br />is not able to be sighted by eye. To prevent the <br />construction of the channel from going off the <br />Eisele's property, he recommends that the north line <br />of Lot 4 be established in the field by a surveyor <br />so that the permitting agencies can see that the <br />channel remains on the Eisele's property. <br />2. The Eisele's propose to erect a silt fence or hay bale <br />dikes to enclose the dredge spoil until it dewaters. <br />These dikes shall remain in place until turf is <br />established on the spoil to prevent erosion. <br />M/S/P Graves/Johnson - approve the request by John Eisele, 3141 <br />Klondike Avenue, for a permit to work in protected waters; contingent <br />on the two conditions indicated in Larry Bohrer's letter dated <br />November 2, 1987. (Motion carried 4-0<Armstrong was not present to <br />vote). <br />B. Browns Creek Surface Water Management Plan <br />The Browns Creek Watershed includes a one-half square mile (quarter <br />section) area in the NE corner of Section 1 in the NE corner of Lake <br />Elmo, near the intersections of Co. 15/Manning Avenue and Trunk <br />Highway 36. <br />City Engineer Bohrer reviewed the Water Management Plan for impact on <br />these 160 acres and his comments are listed in his letter dated <br />November 2, 1987 to the City Council. <br />Bohrer stated in his letter that the policies and goals of this Water <br />Management Plan are very close to the way Lake Elmo has been doing <br />things for years. In fact, the City -adopted "1% Rule" is slightly <br />more restrictive than the Brown's Creek Plan. The City will have to <br />pay a little more attention to water quality by adopting rules <br />limiting soil loss and enacting some type of septic system inspection. <br />The Brown's Creek Water Management Organization is soliciting local <br />comments on the Plan. The only objection Bohrer found was with Water <br />Quantity Policy 1D on page 29, which states: <br />"Stormwater management improvement on existing and new systems shall <br />be designed on the Gritieal storfn event for <br />shall not be less than a one-in-100-year frequency storm event (5.9 <br />inches in 24 hours)." <br />
