putting a catch basin in the entrance at County Rd. I. The problem
had been considered.
Councilman Baumgartner asked, when did you review the highway
plans for the ditch and learn there was no culvert under the
northwest Highway 10 exit? Mr. Gottsacker replied that he had
nothing to do with installation of the two driveways. He was
told by the developer that he had obtained permission from the
State Highway Dept. The developer built the ponds the way the
Highway Dept. told them to.
The administrator asked him if, when he designed the shopping
center drainage plan, were Highway 10 accesses included? Mr.
Gottsacker replied, no. The traffic pattern was well defined
without the two accesses and he didn't think the State would
approve the Highway 10 access. Councilman Baumgartner asked
if he voiced some objection, and Mr. Gottsacker responded that
he was not involved in the implementation. Councilman Baumgartner
asked, when you designed your storage capacities for the drainage,
was the architect aware of the fact that you were going to store
4" of water on top of that roof? Mr. Gottsacker replied that
he worked closely with the architect. Mayor Johnson asked why
the storage on the roof was abandoned? Mr. Gottsacker replied
that the decision was made after he was no longer involved
with the project. I assume the architect and the structural
engineer worked together.
Mayor Johnson stated that those were the professionals working
for Paster Enterprises, and they voiced no concern about it, is
that right? Mr. Gottsacker replied, yes. Mayor Johnson stated
that the first proposal for work on the ditch was approximately
$6,500 and Mr. Gottsacker stated that Mr. Paster had mentioned
it and it seemed like a reasonable amount.
Mayor Johnson stated that we have in front of us a proposal
that you complied on the shopping center drainage -- what is
your recommendation?
Mr. Gottsacker replied that he thinks that the pipe ought to be
put in because otherwise half of the shopping center parking lot
will be lost. Somehow some agreement has to come as to who pays
for what.
Mayor Johnson asked if "you recommend to the city on behalf of
Mr. Paster to put that ditch into a conduit ?" Mr. Gottsacker
replied that would be the best solution.
Mayor Johnson asked what his recommendation is on behalf of
Paster Enterprises to finish that project? Mr. Frisch replied that
the problem that exists with water is not the total problem of
the shopping center. Can you elaborate? Mr. Gottsacker replied
that in his opinion, not all the problems have been from the
shopping center.
