S aw ch uk : <br />The City <br />staff have <br />reviewed your <br />current dra.inage design located <br />on your <br />property at <br />4105 V%7atertown <br />Road. <br />The drainage flow at this time not only ca rrys water from the Kos tka <br />residence to the east of you and ontc your property, but also a <br />tremendous amount of water is generated from the Kokesh property <br />to the north of your property. ^his drainage pattern has been in <br />existence for many years and was in existence before the home was <br />built that you now reside in because of the natural ravine in that <br />area. <br />You have requested the City to change this drainage pattern and <br />divert the flow of water to the north side of the Watertown Road <br />several hundred feet to another drainage area west of you near the <br />Wyatt residence. The City Engineer has reviewed with us your request <br />and has determined that 120 lineal feet of corrugated culvert would <br />have to be installed in conjunction with catch basins. I reviewed <br />the entire area this r,^rninQ with staff and it is also apparent that <br />other culverts downstream would have to -be replaced with larger <br />culverts, driveway entrances and existing ditches would have to be <br />modified. <br />This requested project involves diverting surface waters to another <br />area and is a storm, sewer project that is a non -budgeted capital <br />improvement expenditure that would be assessed to benefiting property <br />owners. The cost to do these improvements is estimated to be approxi- <br />mately $10,000 and would have to be borne by benefiting property <br />owners. The City has in the past undertaken projects of this nature <br />and have assessed the costs after receiving a petition, holding a <br />public hearinq, and completing an engineering feasibility study. We <br />would follow the same procedures in this particular case since <br />maintenance funds cannot be used for capital improvement projects. <br />
