drainage structure. The swale running along the back of lots 1 through 4 will carry the water <br />into a holding pond instead of onto the lots on Hackberry Hill. <br />• Mabusth clarified for Peaseley how the swale would alleviate the problem of water drainage <br />into those lots. <br />Gronberg suggested that it's possible that the pond could be lowered to accommodate the need <br />for a larger capacity holding pond. <br />Schroeder asked how we would determine how that the creation of the subdivision and the <br />berms, swale, pond is not going to make the Hackberry Hill residents worse off. <br />Mabusth responded that the development guidelines and standards of the MCWD will assume <br />that the condition is improved. Your current plan shows all runoff from property being <br />directed along east lot to retention pond in northeast. Drainage from retention pond cannot <br />be released at a greater velocity in a totally developed state than it does in an undeveloped state. <br />All runoff from this site will be directed to northeast retention pond, and will no longer exit via <br />Hackberry Hill. <br />Peaseley continued to express his concerns about the drainage issues and that he feels that the <br />proposed development may not solve the problem. <br />Gronberg feels that the swale, berm and holding pond will alleviate the problem. <br />Schroeder inquired about the sizing of the culvert. <br />• Gronberg explained that it will actually be a weir ( ?) or trench with sloped sides and will be <br />built of concrete or brick. <br />• <br />Peaseley asked about the trees on the Suess property. <br />Gronberg explained that the trees will stay and the fact that the drainage easement is wider <br />than normal. <br />Peaseley suggested that the mound septic system may not be effective in clay and suggests <br />hooking up to sewer and holding tanks. <br />Peterson asked the applicant what Halson has decided to do. <br />Applicant responded that he understood Halson wasn't interested in joining in at this time. <br />Halson stated that his main concern was where the road would be placed if an extension is <br />requested. And that he would join in just to place the road but not create the lots since wrong <br />placement of the road could ruin one of his lots. <br />Mabusth reviewed placement of the road, including describing some history of other similar <br />roads in subdivisions such as Meyer Dairy and Golden View. She reviewed the need for the <br />City to address the issue of an extension road. Mabusth noted staff is recommending an <br />2 <br />
