Draina~eiGrading Lot 1, Block 3 Peterson's Old Homestead Addition Debra Nelson, 7164 Mill Road, appeared before the City Council to express her concern regarding the grading between her lot and Lot 1, Block 4 of Centerville Heights. Ms. Nelson appeared to feel that what was constructed for drainage was not what was originally discussed. She felt that the original problem was an oversight and it is unfortunate that it must be dealt with in this way. Her concerns are what will it be like when there is high water and that this could be a big problem for her in the future. She noted that when the sod was taken out to construct the swale, a ridge occurred in this area. She felt the builder did a poor job from the start. She expressed disappointment in never being contacted during the process for her opinion and to update her. She noted the swale has not set up to run down the middle of the easement. Because of previous oversights she does not want the water problem to be her's. She noted that she was there first. She advised the water does not run evenly and it is unsightly and the sod needs to be fixed. Mayor Buckbee noted there are drainage concerns in all of Centerville. Centerville does not have ample elevation to alleviate all these concerns. He advised that he would like all parties to participate in a mediation process to try to resolve the issues and the concerns. He noted the drainage looks like is being taken care of even though it may not be able to completely satisfy all parties. Chris Lien~ 1810 Hayfield Road, property owner of Lot 1, Block 4 Centerville Heights and Howard Bohanon, Builder, were present at the meeting both appeared to be unwilling to participate in mediation. I Howard Bohanon advised he understood that the correction did not meet Ms. Nelson's expectations. He advised that he would solve the sod concern she has and would remove the ridge area. Council member Wilharber advised that he drove by the lot today and it appeared to have no standing water. The sod appeared to be growing, but there were rough areas. Motion by Burgstahler, second by Dario to appoint Mayor Buckbee as the Centerville Representative to meet Howard Bohanon and Debra Nelson regarding the restoration of sod work to be done on NI.
