My lots on the west side of the ditch will drain to the street and the stormwater runoff will be carried in the curb and gutter across the box culvert to our detention pond along Shields. The rear portions of some of these lots that are downhill from the level of the street will drain into, the ditch on an undetained basis. This will be an insignificant amount of water and less than drains there now. 5. We will monitor our test holes once the ditch begins to run and design our drainage plans to minimize and hopefully eliminate any seepage problems with homes with basements adjacent to the ditch. I will put notice and advisory language in the protective covenants that recommends. sump pumps in basements for lots close to the ditch. Before final approval, we will have to have a.hydrologist report on our design. Based on the soils information from the preliminary report, we will propose to do an interceptor drain along the east side of the ditch, probably in the tract, that will intercept and carry any seepage water to the detention pond. You will have final design approval on such things and be asked to sign off on our utility plans. I believe''that summarizes our discussion. If I have misstated anything',. please let me know and I shall correct this letter. Very.: -truly yours, Mark -Linder ML:611 Enclosure cc: Ed Wendel . Steve Olt � Linder 0�Cs.. Real Estate February 17,.1994 Mr. Willis Smith President Pleasant Valley Lake and Canal Company c/o Norwest Bank 401 South College Avenue Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Willis: Thanks for meeting with me this morning to talk about the ditch issues on my proposed development project (as yet unnamed) near Harmony and. Shields. This letter will serve to document the points we discussed and your agreement on how we propose -to. handle the various issues. 1. We will, on the plat, dedicate -a 40, tract as a formal non- exclusive easement for the ditch. This tract will be measured as 15 feet from the center line on the west or uphill side, and 25 feet on the east side. We will build an access road within the tract on the east side when we do. that phase. This ..tract will ultimately either be owned by. the Homeowner'.s Association,or the City, depending upon•..the .. desires of the City. 2. We will cross the ditch as shown with.a local street And a ­ box culvert. The size of the culvertwill be determined; -.by;.. my engineers, Stewart & Associates, and the City Engineering Department. I would expect it to be similar to the.-4 x.8'.•.'. box culverts used at the Harmony and Wakerobin'crossin'gs.. We will also be crossing the ditch with.the utilities for the lots west of the ditch with the water and sewer .lines going under the box culvert. 3. We will straighten and relocate a small section of the ditch as shown to eliminate a troublesome, leaky corner. The relocated portion will be lined with 12" of suitable clay material as approved by my soils engineers, Empire Laboratories. We will also relocate the present Thayer property headgate at that corner south to their property. They are in agreement with this, and I will work with them and Ed Wendel as to a satisfactory design.
