We have also inspected the homes involved on a drive-by basis. Attached are phot~of the homes and drainage area, and listing information on each of.the properties. . It is our understanding drainage problems such as flooding and erosion haveocurred to 1553 Arden Place, 3487 Ridgewood Road and 3505 Ridgewood Road. As reported in the feasibility study the flooding and erosion has ocurred since the home at 1553 Arden Place was constructed in 1989. The existing storm sewer pipe was installed by the City in the mid 1960's and does not appear adequate to handle the runoff created by the surrounding properties along the ridge of the low area. The City has proposed storm sewer improvements to serve this drainage area. Per the feasibility study a catch basin will be installed in the rear lot of 1553 Arden Place to collect the storm water runoff. At this time it is unclear where the runoff will be directed. In consideration of possible "benefits" to the homes in the project area, we have made the assumption that the drainage problem can be cured through some type of reasonable storm sewer construction. Using figures provided by Mark Graham (Maier, Stewart and Associates Inc.) which show the contributing drainage area for each lot and their corresponding percentage of the total runoff, we have split the cost of the proposed project e.,. (estimated at $32,560.00) between the contributing properties. This is shown on the following pages. This cost does not necessarily relate directly to benefit. {,I 1 ;
