Memorandum - Proposed Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance June 27, 2001 Page 2 e Conservation District. They are the organization that would be responsible for reviewing, editing, and approving any erosion and sediment control plan. They are also the organization that would review, edit, and approve any variance to the Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation District Handbook for any applicant in the City of Arden Hills. This ordinance is set up so that the City of Arden Hills issues a permit to any applicant who has demonstrated they have received either approval or variance from the Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation District. The Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation District Organization Review Authority ensures that the applicant has complied with the Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation District Handbook for specifics on erosion and sediment control practices. The City of Arden Hills then permits the applicant based upon knowledge that the plan has followed the requirements or has been granted a variance from the requirements by Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation District. In Section 8.5-6, Review of Permit Application, I refer you to Sections A, B, and C. The City of e Arden Hills has made it permissive rather than mandatory that a permanent easement can be dedicated to the City for future erosion and sediment control needs. We have also made it discretionary on our part the assignment of permanent maintenance of easements. The City has also established an escrow amount from the developer to cover any costs related to the erosion and sediment control plans that are not completed or maintained by the developer. Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Ordinance 331, an Ordinance requiring Erosion and Sediment Control for Land Disturbance Activities within the City of Arden Hills. A summary should also be ordered and published. e
