As a general rule the neighborhoods located north <br />of 1-694 have comprehensive storm sewer systems with curb and gutter, catch basins and piping <br />which drain to man-made drainage ponds, ditches or natural wetlands prior to entering the lakes <br />in the area. The commercial areas between Trunk Highway 51 and Lexington Avenue generally <br />also have comprehensive drainage systems often including storm water treatment ponds prior to <br />discharging into the public ditches or natural wetlands. <br /> <br />The neighborhoods surrounding Lake Johanna and Lake Josephine generally do not have <br />comprehensive storm sewer systems with treatment ponds therefor a large percentage of runoff <br />in these neighborhoods currently enters the Lakes with little or no treatment. Most existing <br />storm sewer systems discharge directly into the two lakes or area wetlands. <br /> <br />4 <br />
