Please answer the following questions by initialing the appropriate response. For each question initialed “No,” attach an explanation detailing how this will affect stormwater drainage for this lot and any adjacent lots. 1. Certification includes attached Stormwater-approved grading plan. (NOTE: City’s Building Department does not approve grading plans). 2. Certification includes the attached as-built survey dated (must be within 60 days of the date the certification is submitted) accurately and truthfully depicting elevations for: z Top of foundation/finished floor z Finished grade on each side of the structure z Quarter points along each lot line (not more than 50 feet apart) z Break points/high points z Swales z Berms z Retaining walls z Air conditioning pads z Window wells z Any other appurtenance(s) within an easement ϯ͘All elevations are within a 0.2 foot tolerance of the approved grading plan. ϰ͘The top of foundation is at least 6 inches above the highest grade surrounding the structure. ϱ͘There is a minimum grade of 5% away from the structure within the first 5 to 10 feet adjacent to the residence. ϲ͘All slopes meet or exceed the minimum requirement of 2% (1% is acceptable on single family lots when the swale is draining the runoff from only two adjoining properties) and are not steeper than ϯϯ% (ϯ:1). ϳ͘All flow lines of stormwater drainage swales are a minimum of 6 inches below the elevation of ground adjacent to the structure and will direct drainage as shown on the Stormwater-approved grading plan. ϴ͘All downspout locations and discharge directions are shown on the as-built survey. Runoff is directed into an appropriate drainage system or lot line swale, and it is not directed onto neighboring properties.

I personally visited the site as part of the certification process, and in my professional opinion, the as-built survey is an accurate representation of the site conditions.. No Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes No Yes 14. Based on this information, I certify that (check one): Ƒ 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). Ƒ 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.

The downspout along the front of the house at the drive is an underdrain in perfect condition. The landscape was partially complete, as the front of the house had final landscaping. There was no trash or construction fence left onside. Further, I am noting the error on the grading plan of record of lot numbering. A snip of the plat is attached as record for the legal numbering of the lot. I do not perceive that the changes from the grading plan will make any difference in the drainage and the site has very clear and well graded swale, and therefore, it is my professional opinion to approve the certification for this lot.
