Review File: Covenant Meadows <br />Resident Drainage Concerns <br />Engineering Review <br />December 11, 2018 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Staff also prepared an Existing Residence Detail Map. The backyard is extremely flat and was not <br />modified by the new project. A permit was not obtained for constructing the garage at the back of <br />the property. The access road for the garage was dedicated right-of-way, it was not paved so water <br />would infiltrate after a rain event. The road was most likely lower than the adjacent property so <br />water would pool there rather than on the lot. <br />The new road was designed to drain from the new development to Germanium Street. Grades <br />were raised to meet the minimum slope required by City Code for new streets. The outer edges of <br />the ditches were probably raised above the existing grades. It may be possible to check the capacity <br />of the ditches and lower the outside edge to provide drainage from the lot to the ditch. <br />
