#1532 Fullerton Properties - Bike Trail Easement Request September 14, 1990 Page 2 of 3 3. In Lots 1 and 4, proposed drainfield sites are for the most part more than 30' from the north lot line, and lateral below-grade drainage will generally follow the contours sloping away from the bike trail. If the bike trail and its construction traffic do not go outside the easement/right- of-way the rrail will have little impact on Lots 1 and 4. In Lot 2, one corner of the alternate site extends to within 10' of the proposed easement. While topography suggests that this site can be moved 10' further south, that will also shift the primary site further south. This could tend to slightly further limit the flexibility for house placement on the property, but not to a critical degree. In Lot 5, which contains steeper topography and a significant number of existing buildings, the two tested drainfield sites are the only sites available. Within this plat, the alternate site for Lot 5 is the most likely to be negatively affected by construction of the proposed bike trail. The toe of the proposed mound system is 20' from the north lot line, and the natural flow of water underground away from the mound will be to the north and northwest. Due to steep topography that site cannot be shifted further away from the north lot line. The probable compaction associated with construction of the trail in a 10' easement inside the property boundaries would in my opinion would have a severe negative impact on the ability of this mound system to function hydraulically. It is my recommendation thac along this mound site the bike trail, if constructed, be located within the County Road 6 right-of-way, with no construction traffic allowed within the property boundaries adjacent to this mound site. Summary - 1. Drainfield sites in Lots 1, 2 and 4 can likely be ??hifted southward so that the impact of the bike trail is nellgible. 2. While the primary drainfield site on Lot 5 should not be affected, the secondary site would be severely impacted by construction of a bike trail (or construction traffic) within the property boundaries. The trail should be located within the existing right-of-way of County Road 6 rather than within the property boundaries as it passes this alternate drainfield site. 3. . Due to proposed grading of a drainage channel parallel to County Road 6 just north of the primary site on Lot 5, construction of a bike path within the 10' easement in the area would be very difficult.
