Minutes of 8/27/07 <br />Regular City Council Meeting <br />Page 9 <br />ject to the Building .Permit process, and at that time setback require- <br />ments would be finalized. <br />City Attorney Anderson clarified that the City Council was being <br />asked to approve Final Platting of the lots themselves and the physical <br />layout of the road, a fairly ministerial act. City Attorney Anderson <br />concurred with Councilmember Roe's interpretation of the Building <br />Permit process and final setback requirement provisions. <br />Councilmember Kough expressed his ongoing frustration that a <br />change in ordinance needed to be considered to provide notification to <br />adjacent landowners on potential lot split requests, similar to that of <br />the Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, for 300' notification. <br />Additional discussion included interpretation of City Code and the <br />application process. <br />Mr. Boryczka provided further concerns related to the applicant's <br />grading plan and stormwater management on the lot. Mr. Boryczka <br />opined that previously the applicant had provided two (2) grading <br />plans, neither of which was acceptable to neighbors and now another <br />or third grading plan was being provided with an on-site drainage <br />plan. However, Mr. Boryczka further opined that this plan did not <br />take into account impervious roof, patio or driveway area, and only <br />addressed an approximately one level living area of 900'. Mr. <br />Boryczka opined that the applicant's engineer in his report addressed <br />deficiencies in the proposed discharge rate from the proposed biofil- <br />tration trenches, opining that the engineering report was inconsistent <br />with the staff report. Mr. Boryczka further opined that the storm wa- <br />ter runoff and flow should have been more accurately calculated, <br />rather than based on minimum projections. <br />Mayor Klausing referenced Section 4.9c of the staff report addressing <br />storm sewer runoff and requirements of the biofiltration basins to be <br />located within drainage and utility easements dedicated on the plat. <br />Mr. Boryczka further opined that the proposed cul-de-sac didn't meet <br />the City's own construction standards, based on actual definition in <br />
