UtbVeil <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> Memo To :Mayor and Council Members <br /> From :Ric Minetor, City Engineer/Director of Public Works <br /> Date :March 27, 1991 401 , <br /> Subject :Administrative Wetland Permits <br /> The Council adopted revisions to the Wetland Zoning Ordinance <br /> earlier this year. The revisions create an administrative permit <br /> process which allows for certain minor permits to be issued <br /> without Council review. These permits are for work in the buffer <br /> zone not impacting the wetland and for maintenance of existing <br /> uses which were lawfully created. <br /> The process of issuing an administrative permit will include <br /> review of the location of the requested work and a review of the <br /> work to determine impacts on the wetland. The current building <br /> permit process includes both of these functions. All building <br /> permits are reviewed for location in order to assure proper <br /> setbacks from lot lines, flood plains and wetlands. The work <br /> requested is also reviewed for adequacy to perform as desired. <br /> Since the current building permit process reviews the same <br /> information as an administrative wetland permit, I see no need <br /> for an additional fee to be charged; and the administrative <br /> wetland permit could be issued concurrent with a building permit. <br /> Staff Recommendation: Administrative wetland permits shall be <br /> reviewed and issued concurrent with building permits for the work <br /> involved and that there be no additional fee for this type of <br /> wetland permit. <br />
