City Council Meeting Minutes July 8. 1992 page three ~im Stevens Construction - ReQuest for S~ecial Use Permit - Place Fill in Flood Plain John Stewart, City Engineer, was present and presented and a letter dated July B, 1992 regarding ditch and driveway permit CR53 Stevens Property. Mr. Stewart advised that it appears that the driveway overlays the concrete culvert which flows from the Ken Carpenter property on the west side of County Road 53. He noted that this is one of the culverts which is included in Centerville's Flood Reduction Project, thus any ditching or driveway work required of the Steven's would be destroyed if the City project were to proceed. He also noted that the driveway tips so that the surface drainage is northward into the ditch and this combined with the culvert flow is eroding the ditch slopes and culvert coverage. Mr. Stewart suggested that the Steven's submit an escrow of $1,500.00 for a two year period. If the Flood Reduction Project were to proceed within this time frame the Steven's escrow would be returned. If the erosion were to become intolerable or the Flood Project be cancelled then the Steven's would be instructed to undertake the necessary repairs prior to the release of the $1,500.00 escrow. A copy of the letter dated July 6, 1992 prepared by John Stewart, Maier, Stewart and Associates is on file with the Clerk/Administrator.
