Glenview Avenue Storm Sewer ,Ghristoffersen reported that he has reviewed his previous (June 6, 1979) proposal with Public Works Supervisor Raddatz; reported that there has not been much change since his investigation at that time. Christoffersen suggested construction of a berm from driveway to north side of Caniff home; noted some erosion caused by drainage; noted that a pipe installation would cause destruction of existing tree growth; noted that the house is sited very low on the lot. Christoffersen said cost estimate was $10,000 in 1979; guessed it would probably cost $15,000 to $20,000 at today's prices for the proposed solution to this drainage problem. . In discussion. Christoffersen said, because of the steep grade, he recommends a catch basin and a pipe; noted that the house is lower than the curb, as sited. Concern was expressed relative to Valentine Park; would like to see the water directed around the park. Christoffersen explained that a flatter grade requires a wider pipe; this will not solve the problem of water coming back into the park from the lake, without raising the elevation of the park. It was suggested that the street seems to be the problem; flash type rains in major storms overflow the catch basin, and the distance between the houses is narrow, and the grade is steep. It was suggested that perhaps two large catch basins, plus a larger pipe, may be needed. After discussion, Hicks moved, seconded by Hansen, that engineering study including elevations across the park. unanimously.
