August 5, 19£ <br /><Name> <br /><Address> <br /><City> <br />Dear <Last>: <br />Project 1007 was designed and built to control flooding in the Valley <br />Branch Watershed District. Certain properties,because of their elevation, <br />could not be totally protected from flood waters in the case of the <br />100-year precipitation event. <br />Costs of floodproofing certain homes were included in the total cost of <br />the Project 1007. Your property was identified as one of those which might <br />suffer damage in the 100-year event. You may or may not want to floodproof <br />your home. If you desire to floodproof your home, you may choose to <br />construct an earthen berm between your house and the body of water or <br />stream and install drain tile and a high -capacity pump or you may want to <br />raise your home above the 100-year flood elevation. <br />The Managers have determined the maximum amount of money that will be <br />expended by the District on each parcel, based on analysis of the specific <br />parcel by Barr Engineering Co. The maximum amount was determined to be <br />realistic based on quotes which have been obtained from two contractors, <br />namely, Croixland Excavating and Triple A Pollution Control. The ,Valley <br />Branch Watershed District will not be doing the work. Each property owner <br />will hire his or her own contractor to do the work. You will be reimbursed <br />up to the maximum amount determined for your parcel. See the attached <br />sheet for conditions. If you plan to take advantage of this offer, please <br />notify the Board of Managers by September 15, 1988. The Board is proposing <br />that all floodproofing be completed by August 1, 1989. <br />The contact person regarding floodproofing is either Allen Dornfeld <br />at 777-5590 or Nels Nelson at 830-0542. <br />Sincerely, <br />Allen Dornfeld <br />AD/mmm <br />Enclosure <br />VBL/315,0 <br />ALLEN DORNFELD RUSSELL KIRBY GORDON C.
