<br />City ofCenterville <br />November 13, 2002 <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br /> <br />Mr. Glen Powers, 1870 Quebec Street, indicated this issue has been going on for the last <br />two (2) years and he has had standing water in his backyard all summer with mold <br />growing that his daughter is allergic to. He then indicated he put in 18 yards of dirt and it <br />has all washed away. He further commented that he has to have the City come out and <br />plow out the base of his driveway because he has had three foot ice dams at1he end. <br /> <br />Mr. Powers indicated that Mr. Palzer has said that the development was built without a <br />1 % grade as is required by City Ordinance and he would like the City's help in fixing the <br />problem. He then indicated that he and his neighbors are prepared to sue the City if that <br />becomes necessary. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated the property owners have good intentions and want to <br />remove water from their property but there is no place for it to go. <br /> <br />A resident in the audience commented that she had asked to put drain tiling in and was <br />told no because it would flow to the street. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated that the City has had to go in and rectify issues with <br />major ice buildup that creates a safety hazard. <br /> <br />Ms. Donna Macoskey, 1848 Quebec Street, commented that both of her neighbors built <br />up their yards with dirt and she is lower than her neighbors. <br /> <br />Ms. Macoskey, 1848 Quebec Street, indicated she had given her name and address to <br />Staffto be added to the list with water issues on Quebec Street. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers commented that the actions of the neighbors are <br />making her water problem worse. <br /> <br />Mayor Swedberg said he is concerned that Council makes a decision on something and <br />then decides to revisit that decision. He then asked what Council had decided on this <br />matter. Mr. Peterson indicated he had done a quote that was fairly high and not a good <br />solution to the problem. He then suggested getting further quotes for doing the work next <br />spring as part of another project to get a better price. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated the scope of this is much larger than the two lots. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated the City has the option of doing the work <br />and assessing homeowners but said the City does not have the funds to solve drainage <br />issues all over the City. <br /> <br />Mayor Swedberg indicated he is concerned with consistency because Council has told so <br />many homeowners no. He then said he would like to set a policy of making it right and <br />assessing for it or cost sharing whatever Council sees fit but a policy is needed. <br /> <br />Page 20 of29 <br />
