[ Search Result Limit: Project Description
| Please describe your proposed project: | We would like to add a road onto the property and clear out an opening at the end of the road for camping. The site drawings indicate the exact location for the road and camping area in relation to the property lines. We plan to put down some black dirt and class 5 gravel where needed for the road and leave as much as possible just as a grass road. We don't plan to do any grading, but instead just fill where needed to create a smooth driving surface. The camping area would just be grass. We plan to use around 33 yards of dirt and 6 yards of class 5 gravel. We will implement erosion logs during the fill process if any of the black dirt is exposed for any length of time. |

We plan to fill where needed with black dirt and class 5 gravel. The only area that will need dirt and gravel is the approximately 36' area from the 339th Lane through the ditch on the side of the road and up onto the higher section of the lot. This area will be filled with approximately 20" of black dirt and then 4" of gravel on top of that. every 4" of fill we will pack with either a gas powered tamper or a hand tamper. Proper drainage will be added in this section of road if required. 4. The remainder of the access road past the initial ditch section off of 339th Lane will be just a grass road. The camping area will also be just grass. we may do a little seeding where necessary on grass area of road and camping area. |
Terms
All appropriate permit fees must be paid in full prior to any necessary review(s) of application.
Defining and staking the property lines, road right-of-ways, septic sites, and wells are the responsibility of the property owner. In some cases, a registered survey may be required to verify setbacks before granting a permit.
To ensure that earth moving and vegetation removal is within ordinance guidelines, and to ensure activity on your property does not negatively impact the lake or other properties, you may be required to provide additional drawings of your site plan.
Zoning permits and Subsurface Sewage Treatment System permits are valid for one (1) year (unless the sewage permit is to upgrade an Imminent Threat to Public Health or Safety system, which is then valid for ten (10) months).
If property lines are not clearly marked and visible, then they need to be staked with visible flags, ribbon, or lathes prior to onsite inspection by Aitkin County.
It shall be a violation of the Aitkin County Zoning Ordinance to commence construction before the permit application is approved by Aitkin County.
The landowner or authorized agent may make application for a zoning permit agreeing to do such work in accordance with all Aitkin County Ordinances. The landowner or authorized agent agrees that the application, site plan, and all other attachments submitted herewith are true and accurate and shall become a part of the permit. The landowner or authorized agent agrees that, in making application for a zoning permit, the landowner grants permission to Aitkin County, at reasonable times, to enter the property to determine compliance of the application with applicable Local, County or State Ordinances or Statutes. It is the applicants sole responsibility to contact other Local, County or State agencies to ensure the applicant has complied with all relevant Local, County or State Ordinances or Statutes.
After a complete application is submitted and reviewed, an on-site inspection may be conducted; a permit may be issued describing the proposed construction that may take place on the property. Changes to a project may require a permit application to be resubmitted.
