Stormwater Infiltration Program <br />Staff Response to Appeal <br />2009-2010 Street and Utility Improvement Project <br />Property Address:2756 Sherwood Road <br />Basis for Appeal:Other <br />Date of Appeal:October 29, 2008 <br />Date of Appeal Hearing:November 10, 2008 <br />Staff Recommendation:Denial <br />Basis for Staff Recommendation: <br />The property owner has not presented any objective supporting information for <br />their appeal. They have only stated personal reservations regarding the long-term <br />impacts of the infiltration features, and their desire to not have one adjacent to <br />their property. <br />The property owner states their supposition regarding groundwater flow. There is <br />no evidence to support a claim that the infiltration feature will result in water <br />seepage into the basement of the home. The feature will be designed to accept <br />only a limited amount of water volume. If during a rainfall event the design <br />capacity of the feature is exceeded, the excess water will flow back into the gutter <br />of the street and will be collected by the storm sewer <br />Based on the above discussion, it is the conclusion of Staff that the standard for <br />upholding the appeal has not been met.
