Ridgewood Neighborhood Pavement Management Program - Stormwater Management . Plan The City is currently in the proccss ofrebuilding the roads and utilities in the Ridgewood neighborhood, whieh is located east of the subject property. The new stormwater managcment plan for the Ridgcwood neighborhood is proposed to utilize the wetland on the subject propcrty for part of the stormwater treatment system. A stormwatcr treatment pond is also proposed to be constructed along the boundary between Lots 2 and 3 to treat stormwater beforc it drains into the wetland. Overflow from the wetland will drain into Lake Johmma. Most of the existing wetlmld is on Lot 2 with a portion extending into the center part of Lot 3. Tn order to aecommodate a portion of the stormwater from the Ridgewood neighborhood, the City will be improving the wetland and removing thc trees from the wetland to make it more functional (a number oftrees in the wetland are dead or dying). The treatment pond and the wetland will bc placed in an easemcnt dedicated to thc City and will bc maintaincd by the City (Attachmcnt 3B.5).
