4203 North Shore Drive <br /> The grading was done as we initially planned and expected with two exceptions: <br /> The neighbor to the East had water drainage issues with her home where she recently <br /> added interior and exterior drain tile,has drainage channels dug to her Easterly property <br /> line, and has a garage door threshold that measures minimal at one end to about three <br /> inches on the other. <br /> The initial approved grading plan showed drainage from our property to her front yard, <br /> but was reduced per the engineering report from the previous pre-construction situation <br /> by around 20%. To honor her request to even further reduce this amount of drainage,the <br /> grade was lifted to allow drainage to be kept more on our property draining along the <br /> common line to the Lake. Todd Kellogg was met on-site during this filling, and he agreed <br /> that her situation would be improved. An as-built survey was promised to him upon <br /> completion. The neighbor had employed an attorney, and had meetings with City staff <br /> both on-site and at City offices. <br /> This Spring the Westerly neighbor basically had the same request of limiting the previous <br /> drainage paths onto her property in the rear of her yard. Bruce told us he expected us to <br /> keep the drainage on our property; and this necessitated major(neglected) clean up of <br /> dumped debris along the common line and the raising and reshaping of the grade to allow <br /> drainage on our property to the Lake. He was going to `hold' on the framing inspection <br /> until appropriate regarding was done on the Westerly line area and had silt fencing re- <br /> established during this Spring's `mud season'. <br /> The filling was on target except for these two deviations; which were done with the <br /> knowledge of the City Staff or via their direction. <br /> Initially the designers were trying to place the house more toward Northshore Drive to <br /> allow for both the space and the hardcover needed for a Lakeside pool. I was unaware of <br /> the sewer location,but the Design Staff did; and placed the northern edge of the structure <br /> as close to sewer lines as they thought prudent. This negated any possibility of a Lakeside <br /> pool with the contemplated home design. Lyle requested; and was granted, a sewer <br /> easement engineered,prepared and recorded by me prior to title transfer. <br /> 1 <br />
