Box 9 • Albertville, N1N 5 53 01 Phone: 763-497-3384 9 Fax.: 763-497-3210 August 6, 2009 Mr. Mike Potter . 11650 57t' Street NE Albertville, MN 55301 RE: Inspection notice of 7/21/09 for PID 101-800-062-200, located on the intersection of CSAH 37 and Mackenzie Ave. NE Dear Mr. Potter: Thank you for your time meeting with staff today regarding my inspection notice of 7/21/09. I have recapped the issues and the understanding or conclusion of our meeting to be as follows; 1) Construction of shed without permit; you stated you will be removing the shed out of the City in about a week or two and that you would need to add some additional bracing in order to stabilize and facilitate the moving of the structure. City staff is in agreement with this as proposed. Please contact the Building Department when you have completed the removal of the -shed from the property. We are assuming the shed will be removed by 8/17/09. Please let us know if this is not'a sufficient time frame. 2) Constructing the shed without the required zoning ' application, review and approval of the City Council was a violation of the Ordinance; this violation will be rectified with the removal of the shed. In the event you wish to construct a building in the future an application would need to be submitted that'would identify the use and be in conformance with the City Ordinance for your property. Your property is zoned B-3 Highway Commercial. I have attached a Building and Site Review Application Checklist, The City Code Section entitled: Site/Building Plan Review and a Zoning Application for your use or information. 3) Grading and Filling without a permit; grading and filling in excess of 50 cubic. yards has occurred over an extended time period of time. within the last year and was not previously permitted. As depicted in the attached photographs from 3/16/09 and 7/16/09, this work consisted of, but is not limited to, the installation of drainage culverts, filling in the ditch over the culverts apparently to accommodate a future driveway approach or vehicular access over the ditch, filling to construct a berm, filling adjacent to the old haul road, filling in undisclosed areas, as fill was placed and redistributed on the site. I have attached a permit application for grading and filling as.regulated by Chapter 1800 and 1900 of the Ordinance. You only need to submit one application for both grading and filling. Please note the applications for required submittals state specifically that a certificate -of Survey is required by 1800.2 A. 8. The applications identify the information that is needed on your survey. You may consider identifying the areas on your existing survey_ Please submit your permit application no later than September I" 2009. 4) Exterior Storage; there is a variety of exterior storage on your property as identified in the photographs. Exterior storage is allowed on your property with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) that may be issued by the City Council. You indicated that you would review this issue with the City Council at the next Council meeting (8/17/09) and determine if you . would then submit a CUP application. If a CUP Application is not submitted, the exterior storage would need to be removed. We look forward to discussing this issue further after the input is received from the Council. Again, we thank you for your time and attention to these matters. Please feel free to contact our office upon receipt of this letter to discuss the status of any of these items at 763-497-3384 ext 104.
