Re: Lot 181,,Huntington�Hills=Eiling--2�3
Dear Basil,
As required by the hold placed on the certification of occupancy (CO), we surveyed the
elevations of the lot corners and other significant locations of the above -referenced lot on March
4, 1996.
The northeast corner is at elevation 70.9, northwest corner at 72.7, southeast corner at 76.7,
and southwest corner at 78.6. Each of these locations, except for the northwest corner, are
within 0.1 foot of the design elevation. The northwest corner is 0.7 foot higher than the design
elevation, but will not cause any drainage problems. Highpoint elevations along the side lot -
lines were taken near the front of the house. These elevations were 77.7 on the east and 79.3
on the west. The side lot -line elevations are 0.6 and 0.2 foot higher than the design grade for
the east and west sides, respectively. The first floor elevation is 82.4, which is 2.3 feet higher
than the design elevation.
The intended drainage patterns are met by the grading on this lot; the front part drains to the
street and the back portion drains to the rear lot line. Geneva Construction placed a berm
along the rear lot line, ensuring that drainage patterns are realized. The berm directs runoff to
the east lot line, where a gap in the berm allows water to flow north along the side of lot 192 per
grading design.
An adequate side swale exists between the houses on lots 181 and 180. The house on lot 182
to the west of lot 181 is currently under construction; however, there is positive drainage away
from the lot 181 house on all sides.
It is our recommendation that the hold on the CO-for.lot 181 be released since the Contractor
graded the lot to meet design drainage patterns. If you have any questions, please call.
Sincerely,
Owen/Ayres & Associates, Inc.
