Ramsey County, Minnesota
WHEREAS, the above-described property is zoned R-l, Single Family Residential; and,
WHEREAS, Section 1010.08 of the Municipal Code states that a Wetland Buffer Permit is
required when any construction activities are planned within one-hundred feet of a wetland; and,
WHEREAS, no development activities or disturbances of any kind will occur within the
wetland itself; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed home and driveway fall completely within the 100-foot buffer
area adjacent to the wetland; and,
WHEREAS, Mr. Hofstede has drafted the site plan so as to maintain the greatest possible
distance between the proposed home and driveway and the wetland; and,
WHEREAS, the City Engineer has reviewed the final plans and has determined that the
extent of impervious encroachment into the buffer should not negatively impact the wetland.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View City Council
approves the Wetland Buffer Permit Jeffrey Hofstede contingent upon the following:
1. Plans and supporting documentation for controlling erosion shall be provided by
the applicant and approved by the Community Development Director prior to the
issuance of any grading or building permits.
2.
The pervious surface areas of the lots shall be sodded or landscaped (up to the five-
foot natural vegetation strip along the wetland) to prevent substantial soil loss from
the site. This will need to be accomplished before a certificate of occupancy is issued.
