Dear Mr. Simmons:
In response to your inquiry regarding the status of the public
improvements for Pinewood Subdivision, I have not yet received
a letter from Mr. Rutherford of James Stewart & Associates
verifying that the detention system has been installed in
accordance with the utility plans for this development. However,
I spoke with Mr. Rutherford on the telephone this morning and
he indicated the letter is forthcoming. I understand that the
connection of the detention pond outlet pipe with the curb and
gutter has still not been installed. Once this construction
is completed and approved and we have received the letter of
verification from Stewarts', we will be able to forward
additional engineering releases to the building inspection
department.
Sincerely,

RE: Pinewood Drainage
As you requested, I inspected the property located at 519 Strachan this
morning with Dick Rutherford, an engineer with James H. Stewart & Associates.
In addition, I have reviewed the subdivision utility plans prepared in
conjunction with this developnent.
It appears that the detention pond and other drainage improvements have
been constructed as - ' shown - on the u lity dravairigs, While the elevations
should be verified by a field survey, it would appear that all of the
essential elements of the drainage plan have been constructed as designed.
The area adjacent to the western boundary of 519 Strachan is part of the
development's open space, and provides access from Strachan Drive to the
large open area south of the lots. Men I visited the site, this area was
ponding several inches -of water, as it seems to have been graded as a
depression. This area was not designed or platted as a drainageway, and
the subdivision utility plans did not detail any grading plan for this
portion of the open area.
The property at 519 Strachan is experiencing drainage problems because of
the ponding in the open space. However, this is not the result of any
inadequacy in the design of the detention pond, or the failure of the City
to secure the installation of the drainage improvements as shown on the
utility plans. It is rather, the result of grading the open space for
landscaping and setting the elevation of the building and grading around
the building without any regard to the flow of surface wagers.
I hope this answers any questions you might have had concerning this matter.
If I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to call me.

Re: Pinewood P.U.D.
Dear Tom,
This letter is a follow-up to some earlier conversations we had
concerning the storm drainage on Pinewood P.U.D. I sent a work
order to our Streets Department to place a restriction in the
manhole which is downstream of Pinewood P.U.D.; however, I haven't
officially informed the owner of.Pinewood P.U.D. of this action.
If you haven't already done so, could you please let the owner know
what my plans are? The restriction we will be placing in the manhole
is only temporary until Pinewood P.U.D. is constructed. The utility
plans for Pinewood P.U.D. show a restriction in the manhole which
will be permanent.
Thank you for ycur cooperation in this matter and if you have any
questions, please call me at 221-6605, extension 7309.
Sincerely,
Bobbi Dunham
