The property is located on a 2-acre lot within the Shoreland District of the Apple River in the Town of Star Prairie. Staff finds that Recycling the proposed project meets the spirit and intent of the St. Croix County Zoning Ordinance and 715-386-4675 Shoreland District with the following findings: 1. Filling and grading less than 10,000 square feet in area on slopes less than 25 percent is allowed with a land use permit in the Shoreland District pursuant to Section 17.29(2)(c) of the St. Croix County Zoning Ordinance; 2. The proposed building site is on slopes of less than or equal to 15 percent; 3. The grading limits for the proposed excavated area for the house and septic system is >75 feet from the OHWM of Apple River and approximately 10 feet above the 100- year flood elevation of 859.0'; 4. The erosion control plan features a single row of silt fence or other approved sediment control barrier immediately below the proposed septic system installation area, running north/south along the contour of the slope facing the river. With conditions for supplementing the silt fence to ensure that sediment-laden runoff is not allowed to reach the river; maintaining the silt fence and any additional erosion control measures until self-sustaining permanent vegetation is established on all disturbed areas; prohibiting the use of phosphorous fertilizer to establish and maintain a lawn on the disturbed areas; and providing long-term storm water management on the site with use of infiltration structures; potential negative impacts to the water quality of the ponds and drainage in the area will be minimized; 5. The St. Croix County Land and Water Conservation Department has reviewed the plans and finds the proposed erosion control measures for the initial filling and grading to be done as part of this land use permit application to be adequate; and 6. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has been sent a copy of the application and notified staff that the OHWM may be determined by St. Croix County staff. The Department has also notified staff that this project is subject to review by the Wisconsin Department of Commerce and that storm water runoff will have to be managed and treated on the site in accordance with NR 151 standards. Based on these findings, approval of this land use permit is subject to the following conditions: ST. CROIX COUNTY GOVERNMENT CENTER 1 101 CARMICHAEL ROAD, HUDSON, W1 54016 715-386-4686 FAx 1.

Prior to commencing construction, the applicants shall install the silt fence (or other approved sediment barrier) in accordance with the erosion control plan and shall supplement the silt fence with additional erosion control measures as necessary to ensure that sediments do not reach the Apple River. All silt fence and other erosion control measures shall be maintained until permanent, self-sustaining vegetation is successfully established on all disturbed areas of the site. 3. No phosphorous fertilizers shall be used to establish and maintain a lawn on the disturbed areas of the site, unless a soil test confirms that phosphorous is needed. 4. Upon completing the initial site work outlined as part of this land use permit application, the applicants shall submit to the Zoning Administrator photos of the excavated area and erosion control measures as viewed from all angles.
