Greg Kopishke explained the new storm water proposal, i�creasing storage two to three times and constricted outflow by 50% during peak flow. Deb Bloom explained the research and planning for ponding and storms was no greater than a ten-year storm. The proposal by lhe Mall will improve storm water slorage. There will be no undue strain or impact on the existing system. Public Comment. Mark Bariis, 1413 Eldridge, noted that the new Ordinance passed December 1999 required 25% coverage.
