Lane would drain the secondary pondin,.g problem. The construction cost of this alternative is <br />estimated to be $44,000 which include fl~e replacement of half of 156th Lane. <br /> <br />All necessary easements for this transmission line associated with tiffs alternative are currently <br />held by the City, however, the City Attorney has advised that obtaining easements on waiver <br />from properties bordering the pond, including the golf course would be desirable, since the only <br />portion of the pond covered by the easement includes the twenty feet along the common border <br />between 5821 and 5761. A temporary easement for construction would also be helpful. There <br />would be tree loss impact along the 5821 and 5761 property line, since it is heavily wooded. <br />Tiffs alternative would also allow the ponded water on 5830 and 5810 to be drained entirely. <br />Sh-nilar to Alternative A, there may be a conflict with the gas line. <br /> <br />Alternative C.' The Thorsons have had a si~m,~ificant reduction in the use of their backyard <br />resulting fi.om the existing drainage, and have expressed a desire for some form of immediate <br />relief. The Thorsons have considered placing a four-inch tile line across their backyard as <br />illustrated in Alternative C. There appears to be a swale through the wooded areas flowing <br />through the rear property area of 5821 to the east and into the golf course pond. The cost of this <br />project undertaken by the Thorsons is estimated to be $500. In the Thorsons letter they have <br />requested consideration by the City in participating with tiffs expense. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />If the City wishes to consider assisting with Altemative C, it is recommended that permission be <br />obtained fi:om 5821, since there is no easement on that property. It is Staff recommendation that <br />a permanent solution such as Alternative A or B be pursued. Since there are six properties which <br />may be directly impacted, it is recommended that an informational meeting be held to present <br />these alternatives to become familiar with the desires of these property owners. Staff also <br />recommends initial survey Work be done to verify the feasibility of these alternatives. <br /> <br />Action: <br /> <br />Motion ~o recommend to Council that an informational meeting with the six affected property <br />owners be held. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />Director of Public Works <br />Assistant Public Works Director <br /> <br />PW: 07/15/03 <br /> <br /> <br />
