is <br /> requirements of that project through the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization <br /> (LRRWMO) was that infiltration be provided. He stated that they were unable to provide that <br /> infiltration at Fred Moore and instead worked with the LRRWMO to find another site within the <br /> District properties and LRRWMO boundaries to add infiltration. He stated that they chose the <br /> Ramsey Elementary location to provide that required infiltration. He explained that they are not <br /> taking water from Fred Moore to Ramsey Elementary and are instead just adding the additional <br /> treatment on the Ramsey Elementary site. <br /> Commissioner VanScoy stated that therefore this would seem to look at the entire LRRWMO area <br /> and District properties in order to add treatment. <br /> Mr. Diede confirmed that there were unable to add infiltration at Fred Moore and therefore are <br /> adding the treatment to Ramsey Elementary to offset the additional hardcover added at Fred <br /> Moore. <br /> Commissioner Hunt asked for details on construction and whether the access to play equipment <br /> would be impacted. <br /> Jay Pomeroy,Bolton and Menk,confirmed that the treatment is within the LRRWMO boundaries. <br /> He stated that the project will be done this summer and the playground will not be damaged or <br /> upset. He stated that there are no summer activities planned at the school for the summer. <br /> Commissioner Hunt asked what would happen if the project were to exceed the summer break. <br /> Mr. Pomeroy commented that the trucking would be done in about 1.5 months. He stated that the <br /> restoration work would continue into the next year. <br /> Jason Patrow, 16209 Sapphire Street, commented that he supports the project. He stated that his <br /> son attends the school, and the excessive runoff creates potholes in the parking lot. He stated that <br /> his son is in a wheelchair and the potholes cause issues with his access to the school. He asked <br /> whether there would be a permanent fence around the basin to prevent children from trying to play <br /> in the water. <br /> Mr. Pomeroy stated that the fencing is not included at this time. He stated that if a child were to <br /> jump the fence and get into the pond, it would be difficult to get the child out. He stated that they <br /> would provide a vegetative bench to prevent access to the pond. <br /> Mr. Diede stated that the circular feature would permanently hold water, about three to four feet <br /> in depth while the larger area is intended to be dry within 48 hours after a rain event. <br /> Commissioner Anderson asked if the natural plantings would be along the circular pond that will <br /> hold water. <br /> Mr. Pomeroy commented that at the surface of the water there will be a gradual slope where <br /> vegetation will grow that will naturally provide a buffer. <br /> Planning Commission/May 26,2022 <br /> Page 6 of 20 <br />
