City of Centerville <br />February 11, 2004 <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Frederick Curran of 6907 Oak Circle said that at the last meeting there was <br />discussion of having a culvert or ditch running down the west side of his property and at <br />the last meeting they mentioned a drain tile system under the road. He then asked how <br />far that would be below the surface of the road and whether it would drain to the culvert. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson indicated they would need to run new pipe in his yard and would need <br />permission for that as there is no easement there. <br /> <br />Mr. Curran suggested running the drainage up Oak Circle to Center Street to hook into <br />Dupre. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson said it may not be possible due to the grade in the area. He then said he <br />would review the drainage in that area. <br /> <br />Mr. Curran of 6907 indicated that he is being assessed $1,000 for storm sewer and he <br />would like to see something for his money. He then suggested extending the culvert all <br />the way back to pheasant lane because it is open ditch and would not require any tree <br />removal. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson indicated there would be brush to be removed and agreed to work with the <br />neighbors and review the drainage in the area. <br /> <br />Mr. Kevin Fogerty of 7088 Brian Drive asked whether Center Street has enough <br />elevation change to accomplish the proposed drainage and also asked whether there is <br />going to be any additional drainage under the road that falls into the storm sewers. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson explained that every new street would have the two layers of blacktop, class <br />five aggregate base and a 20 inch granular borrow that collects water and moves it into <br />the drain tile system. <br /> <br />Mr. Fogerty expressed concern that the drain would freeze if it was at grade and not <br />allow for any drainage. <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson indicated that the system has proven to work very well. <br /> <br />Mr. Ole Mersinger asked whether the feasibility study considers the fact that fish spawn <br />in the backyards and asked whether the DNR has any issues with that. <br /> <br />Mayor Sweeney indicated that the only place that the DNR tries to keep people out of is <br />the park and anything that is in town technically is drainage ditches not wetlands. <br /> <br />A resident asked how long the roads would be impassable. <br /> <br />Page 9 of 15 <br /> <br />
