6. COMMUNICATIONS, REQUESTS AND PETITIONS
(a) CONSIDERATION OF PETITION FROM PROPERTY OWNERS ON
WOODRIDGE AND SUNSET RIDGE REGARDING REAR YARD DRAINAGE
PROBLEMS
Engineer Rodeberg reported there had been problems for
some time since an over-all drainage plan was not
required when this area was developed. He recommended
2
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - MAY 25, 1993
cutting a small swale to prevent backup and work with the
utilities to lower the lines closer to the catch basin.
The City Engineer stated lot grading would be the home
owners' responsibility.
Glen Kegley, 1355 Westwood Road, requested the City look
at the source of the problem. He thought something on
the drain was on backwards. Mr. Kegley wanted a catch
basin installed and remove the swale from the middle of
the back yard and put the swaie closer to the lot line.
There are several possibilities to be considered.
Mark Bruns, 380 Connecticut Street, stated his back yard
hooks up with the area having problems. The water backs
up and flows through his yard into the adjoining yards.
Mr. Bruns noted he had done extensive back yard
landscaping and grading. The Swale could be eliminated
if the flow was caught. No other drains appear to be
available, and there is a large area to drain into one
sewer. He felt there was too much land draining into the
basins. Mr. Bruns was concerned about the utilities
going across his lot. He stated he was willing to build
up a little berm in the boule-card of Westwood Road to
temporarily hold the water until it could drain through
the sewer or drains. He thought a Swale and drainage
would be fairly adequate when there was no heavy rain.
The City Engineer reported the grading in the back yards
matched the grading plan. The catch basins may or may
not be enough capacity to handle five year storms. The
swale helps get the water out and down to the lake. He
will take a look at the design and determine what could
be done at a minimum cost.
Following discussion, Councilman Erickson moved to direct
the Engineering Department to work with the neighbors to
resolve the problem as proposed by Mr. Bruns and the
three recommendations by the City Engineer, namely: (1)
have the utility companies 'Lower the utilities along the
rear property line; (2) have the City or Kevin Compton
construct the emergency overflow Swale; and (3) home
owners should revise yard grading and add rain gutters.
The addition of window wells, and potentially the removal
of the patio door on Lot 14, would also significantly
lessen the chance of flooding in the area. Motion
seconded by Councilman Mlinar and unanimously carried.
3
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - MAY 25, 1993
(b) CONSIDERATION OF PETITION TO CLEAN UP PROPERTY LOCATED AT
225 HWY. 7 WEST (ALL SEASONS LANDSCAPE & DESIGN)

contacted several times regarding the problem, and the
