Mounds View City Council November 23, 2015 <br />Regular Meeting Page 3 <br /> <br /> Ayes – 4 Nays – 1 (Mueller opposed) Motion carried. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Erickson discussed the appeal request from 2110 Terrace Drive in detail <br />with the Council. There was concern with the high groundwater elevation on the property in <br />addition to the location of underground utilities. Staff requested the Council take comments <br />from the public and uphold the recommendation of denial of the appeal. <br /> <br />Benedict Speldrick, 2110 Terrace Drive, expressed concern that his basement would flood if an <br />infiltration basin was located in his front yard. He noted the location of the outlet for the <br />infiltration stating it ran through his yard past his garage. He did not want his garage adversely <br />impacted by water runoff either. Public Works Director Erickson noted the location of the catch <br />basin stating it was to the east of Mr. Speldrick’s driveway. He reported staff would have to <br />further investigate the site to see where the utility easement was located. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty asked if the Council wanted to proceed with this appeal or wait until further <br />information was gathered by staff. <br /> <br />Council Member Gunn supported moving forward with the appeal and noted the catch basin sites <br />were recommended by the City Engineers. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Flaherty/Meehlhause.
