INFORMATIONAL MEETING ON KELLY AVTNUE DRAINAGE <br />AUGUST 18, 1994 <br />Mrs. Famham asked if there wasn't a concern for the quality of Carman Cove because four homes <br />considered that their lakesh^'.e. Gerhardson questioned what the final impact would be. Cook added <br />that Kelly Pond does a lo» of nutrient removal. <br />Scott expressed her objection to major work through her yard. <br />Famham referred to earlier discussions about easements. He did not think he would be in favor of <br />giving easements to the City but they could be negotiated. <br />Laura asked if there was any obligation of the City toward this project and if there were any funds <br />available to the City through other agencies. Cook responded there were few agencies that would <br />provide funding. <br />Mr. Famham summarized his thoughts: <br />1. He is in favor of raising the road as it is the best solution when considering lake <br />levels. <br />2. He would consider the addition of a pond at the Kelly Avenue comer by Rick's Super <br />Valu. There is a possibility that the pond by Rick's could be dug deeper to increase <br />capacity. <br />Nothing should be done with piping at this time. Wait to see the results of the first <br />two suggestions. <br />4. In regards to payment, the City should look at who contributes to the water problem <br />which results in the road problems. One possibility may be to survey the area to see <br />how many square feet each property has that drains into the area. An assessment <br />could be based on how much water is contributed to the problem. <br />5. He felt the City has some obligation and at a least a portion of the costs should be <br />spread over the whole City. The road was put in too low and neighboring property <br />owners should not have to pay the full cost of upgrading. <br />Other neighbors agreed with Mr. Famham's comments. <br />Stoddard requested that the City pursue any funding which may be available for road use in general <br />and environmental impacts. <br />Gerhardson suggested soil testing be done before proceeding with raising the road. Records fi’om <br />the original Kelly Avenue constmction are not available.
