Drainage and Grading The City Engineer's evaluation of the general concept plan indicates that the NURP pond at the east end of the site is not feasible; a NURP pond will probably be needed for the senior citizen housing development (Parcel 4) and the office building (Parcel 3); and the central NURP pond will need to be expanded.:. An engineered drainage design shall be submitted and reviewed by the City Engineer as part of the development stage plan. The drainage design shall assure protection of water quality entering the wetland. Where there is a conflict in the area shown for development and the area needed to accommodate drainage improvements, the need for drainage improvements shall prevail. Accommodating the drainage improvements may result in the maximum densities allowed on the site to be lowered from the amounts stated in Section 3. The property owner/developer shall submit a grading plan as part of the development stage plan review.
