Project Description
Please describe your proposed project: | I am seeking to build a water access ramp to Remote lake on my property. There is no ramp on the lake suitable to launch a boat and the site I am considering is well suited for this access. Beavers have removed the majority of the vegetation and trees and the site is made up of gravel and rock soils. Some small stumps will be cut off and some hazelnut brush will be removed, as well as one large root ball that is partially rotted. The access to lake will be a 12' wide section within an existing 30' wide area that is approximately 60' long. Most of the area is already the correct grade but the area near the shoulder of the service road will need some soil fill. I hope to adjust the radius on the road curve by removing material on the non lake side in that location, and be able to use that material for the fill. If needed, the material added will be stabilized with recycled concrete and then planted into grasses to control erosion. |
Will you be removing vegetation during this project? | Yes |

Erosion Control Practices
Indicate the following erosion control measures that will be used throughout and after your project? (Check all that apply) |
Silt Fence Seeding and/or Mulching |
Describe how you intend to implement this plan and your finished vegetation plan.: |
The ground will be planted into clover and cover grasses and the slope of the land is very minimal. During construction a small section of silt fence could be used in case of large rain events. |
Other Information
Other: | Due to the nature of the area the State Park staff has requested that I use local material so invasive concerns are minimized. I can acquire materials from the land above the road to soften a curve and accommodate the Park. |
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.
I acknowledge that by submitting this application, the application and its attachments are public information.
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.
Applicants are responsible for getting all applicable entrance permits from the appropriate road authority.
