Project Description

Please describe your proposed project.:
I am proposing to install a tram/elevator on my property since I have a steep slope to the lake from the home.  I would need to remove a 6" dia and 3" dia tree at the top where the tram would start.  These trees are approximately 125 feet from the waters edge.

Vegetation Removal

Number of Trees to be removed: 2
Number of Shrubs to be removed: 0

Type of Clearing

Please select all that apply:
Hand Clearing
Please explain:
A chainsaw or even a hand saw will be used to remove the two trees as they are fairly small in size

  • 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.

  • I acknowledge that by submitting this application, the application and its attachments are public information.

Land Use/Septic General Terms
  • 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 agrees that the application, site plan, and all other attachments submitted herewith are true and accurate and shall become a part of the permit.
