There are several issues that do not fit well within the <br />administrative rules. The proposed setback from the bluff is 0 feet, there is too much impervious <br />surface and need more open space, the proposed height of the building is too high, and the city has <br />calculated that there is insufficient parking available. Therefore the DNR recommends denial of the <br />proposal. <br />The DNR appreciates the design and amenities proposed but can see the need for more room to <br />meet setbacks, open space, and be outside the shore impact zone in order that the height of the <br />proposed structure is not a limitation. <br />:Sincerely, ,r� <br />Rage Sira(IaI' <br />Area Hydrologist <br />320-223-7850 <br />roger.stradal@state.mn.us <br />DNR Area Office <br />1035 South Benton Drive <br />Sauk Rapids, MN 56379 <br />mndnr.gov <br />Ob PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER CONTAINING A MINIMUM OF 10% POST -CONSUMER WASTE. <br />#64 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER. <br />
