BURNE T COUNTY ZONING ADMINISTRATION <br /> BU ETT COUNTY GOVERNMENT CENTER <br /> 7410 COUNTY ROAD K,#102 PHONE(715)349-2138 <br /> SIREN,WISCONSIN 54872 <br /> August 24,2005 <br /> Jay Reiling <br /> PO Box 270931 <br /> North Oaks,MN 55E7-2077 <br /> Dear Mr.Reiling: <br /> As part of the conditi ns of your permit a shoreline buffer restoration plan was required. This plan <br /> was put together by the Burnett County Land and Water Conservation Department. <br /> An inspection of thi buffer restoration was conducted on 8-17-05. This inspection found the <br /> restoration plan only partially completed. See inspection comments below: <br /> A recent inspection in oted that the seeding in the view corridor/opening below the house did not <br /> completely cover the view corridor with vegetation,and that a gully is forming from runoff from <br /> the house. The corr dor must be covered at least with some type of groundcover such as lawn <br /> grasses. This area hould be reseeded in late august or early September to establish a full <br /> groundcover. <br /> The vegetation protection area on the island is not established according program standards. <br /> The opening at the h ke is about 60 feet wide instead of the allowed 30 feet. The pathway to the <br /> swing should be narrowed to a maximum of 4 feet to allow plants to grow. Steppingstones might <br /> help to minimize disturbance in this area. The ATV turnaround creates a view corridor that is <br /> 47 feet wide on the walkway side of the island. This is also well beyond the allowed 30-foot <br /> corridor. Areas outside of the 30-foot view corridor must be allowed to grow up. It will likely <br /> be necessary to limit kTV and foot traffic for this to be successful. <br /> This restoration is noi only a required part of your permit, but it also is extremely important to the <br /> water quality and na al scenic beauty of our water bodies. <br /> Please contact the Land and Water Conservation office at 349-2186 to resolve any concerns regarding <br /> this restoration plan. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Jim Flanigan <br /> Zoning Administrator <br /> JF:jn <br /> cc: Land and Wa er Conservation Department <br />
