The proposed construction generally would not include any driveway construction with the exception of a one foot {l') apron which would be provided to protect the edge of the pavement on the rural cross-section street. It would be the homeowner's responsibility to extend existing bituminous or concrete driveways to match the street. In special cases, if the street grades are revised to require driveway adjustments, those adjustments would be made as part of the project. STORM DRAIANGE IMPROVEMENT The present storm drainage system appears to be functional with the exception of culvert cleaning and ditch cleaning. To control the runoff, the intersection of 152nd Avenue and Jaspar Street and on the 152nd Avenue cul-de-sac, it is proposed to construct streets with bituminous berms as shown on Exhibit A. It is also proposed to construct bituminous berms along the north end of Hematite Street to carry the street runoff to the low area. The proposed improvements would not provide a positive outlet to the drainage. as proposed in the Comprehensive Storm Drain Study. However, it is not anticipated that the drainage will create any major problems with only occasional flooding of the low areas occurring during heavy rains and during snow melt prior to the disappearance of frost in the spring.. The ultimate solution to the drainage would require construction of a drainage outlet to County Ditch No. 66 and No. 3.
