(Sharon McCarthy) A. (Engineer) Spot elevation shows that water will not go into this area and that a stub rather than a catch basin will be used. Q. What type of stub will be used? (McCarthy) A. (Engineer) It is not clear from the grading plan. Q. There is a 1 1/2 foot drop off within a 5 foot area going up to the catch basin; therefore, there is no drainage into the catch basin at all. It now holds the water in it, if this is filled in, won't that overload the catch basin ?(McCarthy) A. (Engineer)The pond is actually going to be able to hold more than it does now. Q. How far does the sewer base drain? (McCarthy) A. (Engineer) 2 blocks east of Long Lake Road, then it hits a ditch. And, going west, it will go to the back lot line of Greenwood. Q. What is the water table level in that area? (McCarthy) A. (Engineer) 902 -904 Q. I currently have a split entry home and I have problems with a flooded basement. What precautions will be taken to assure the future residents of this development that this will not happen to them too? (McCarthy) A.(Building and Zoning Official Rose) There are certain standards such as a drain tile and coded wall that must be installed and will be enforced by the City. (Attorney Meyers interjected here that the Developer will have to post a 7 year bond in order to make sure nothing is contrary to the city ordinance). Q. What assurance does the private citizen have that these codes and requirements will be adhered to? (Neil Loding, 5046 Longview Drive) A. (Mayor) Before the developer can get an occupancy permit, they have to comply with the building code requirements, which have been periodically reviewed during the construction phase by the City. If any questions arise, the public can contact the Building and Zoning Official.
