The pond is a filtration pond and the <br />water has to have a sediment pond. It may be possible to re-delineate the area around the pond <br />and look at also if the exiting water can be changed to a different elevation - if it could be <br />redesigned, etc. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that we have done some things with dry wells. <br /> <br />It was noted that 2/3 of this property is in the drainage easement. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cook stated that the Committee talked about lowering the outlet to the pond to <br />the adjacent wetland. The easement could be re-delineated to be farther away from the property. <br />The pond cannot be removed completely, but possibly re-engineered. The City will do its best to <br />improve the situation. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Cook and seconded by Councilmember Olson to not remove the <br />pond; however, it should be re-engineered to make the situation better, if the property to the east <br />develops. <br /> <br />City Council/November 7, 2005 <br /> Page 13 of 16 <br /> <br /> <br />
