Summary and Recommendation: In order to maintain flow of a natural drainage course and to provide a modified access to an existing, improved storm drain, Mr. Paul St. Pierre has provided the subject Agreement. Staff recommends approval of the Agreement. B. Background: Mr. St. Pierre has recently requested permits to improve portions of his property. This site is 1.34 acres, located at the southwest corner of the second phase of Hidden Mountain Estates.The northwest corner of the site is impacted by an existing storm drain. Due to proposed fencing, the existing access will be blocked. Mr. St. Pierre has agreed to allow City crews access by way of a gate located adjacent to, but outside of, the dedicated storm drain easement. In addition, the southerly portion of the property is impacted by a natural drainage course flowing from several uphill properties. It is unknown why a drainage easement was not included in the original subdivision. In order to maintain unimpeded flow, the City has requested the proposed block wall be eliminated in favor of an iron fence and gate. This will allow the flow to continue though the St. Pierre property to an inlet at the west side of the property. Staff has prepared the subject Agreement which will be recorded against the property and be binding to future owners of the pr FOR .-CITY COUNCIL ASE AGENDA ITEM -2- July 15, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMISSION/BOARD REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
