4. The top of foundation is at least 6 inches above the highest grade surrounding the No Yes
structure.
5. There is a minimum grade of 5% away from the structure within the first 5 to 10 feet No Yes
adjacent to the residence.
6. All slopes meet or exceed the minimum requirement of 2% (1 % is acceptable on single No Yes
family lots when the swale is draining the runoff from only two adjoining properties)
and are not steeper than 33% (3:1).
7. All flow lines of stormwater drainage swales are a minimum of 6 inches below the No Yes
elevation of ground adjacent to the structure and will direct drainage as shown on the
Stormwater-approved grading plan.

13. I personally visited the site as part of the certification process, and in my professional No Yes
opinion, the as-built survey is an accurate representation of the site conditions.
14. Based on this information, I certify that (check one):
• The elevations and drainage patterns of the lot/site are in substantial conformance with the City
approved drainage and grading plan for the property (information attached).
E! The elevations and drainage patterns of the lot/site as measured are in general conformance with the
City approved drainage plan with exceptions (information attached). In my professional judgment the
elevations and grading of the lot/site as constructed are functionally adequate and equivalent to the
specifically approved drainage plan, and will affect stormwater drainage on and off the lot/site in a
manner consistent with the approved drainage plan.
