Motion; carried on a Roll %all vote, four ayes,
Cons0 ting Engineer Olson reviewed an analysis of the Storm
Drainage System in the area of 24th Avenue North west of Dunkirk
Lane which had severe flooding after heavy rains in July, Mr,
Olson made the following recommendations to solve the drainage
problems In that area: 1) construct a control structure for
Pond GL -P5 downstream of 25th Avenue; 2) provide an adoitional
2.5 acre-feet of storage in Pond GL -P3 (from 7,5 to 10 acre-feet);
3) construct a cont -vi structure for Pond GL -P7 adjacent to
Dunks: k Lane,
John Garveu, 15720 - 24th Avenue North, sated he believed the
culvert r 24th Avenue was not large enough to handle the
runoff from the north and west of his home and asked if removal
of the elm trees along the creek and dredging the channel would
not increase the flow of water through the 24th Avenue culvert
causing even greater flooding, He also questioned the purpose of
the control gate on Ponderosa Pond,

contained the required storage capacity, the culvert on 24th Avenue
w*0d be adequate to handle the run-off from the district. He sug-
gested other marshy areas in district that could be developed into
ponds to provide additional storage capacity for the district.
Mayor Runt commented that the storm drainage system was built to a
10(1 -year storax capacity and accordingly houses are being built one
foot above the 100 -year storm mark. If heavier rains than this occur,
there is iv guarantee these houses will not be fla.)ded.
Doroth Nkrr, 16710 - 24th Avenue North, expressed concern about the
possibility of a pond being developed in the marsh between 24th and
25th Avenuas which is directly behind here home. Mayor Hunt replied
if such a pond was developed it would be a storm improvement project
and would require a public hearing.
Mrs. Kert also questioned the removal of healthy elms along the creek
behind her home since she felt they had absorbed some water.
Manager Willis replied the trees were holding back much more water
than they were absorbing and they were removed in an effort to keep
the channel clear. It is also proposed to clean out the channel in
the near future.
Margaret Garvey, 16720 - 24th Avernie North, stated they had 12 in, of
water ntfieT sement and 30 in, of water outside their home during
the July 7 storm. She felt measures should be taken immediately to
p,*vent a reoccurence of this situation.
Robert Stuart, 16800 - 24th Avenue North, asked what would be done to
correct tie storm drainage problem on 24th Avenue. Mayor Hunt re-
plied the Council will consider the information provided at this
meeting and direct the stct f to make a complete investigation of the
problems in the storm urainege system in this district and come back
with recommendations for solutions in a few weeks.
James A. 8eltz: 16725 - 24th Avenue, stated he felt a bigger culvert
on 24th Avenue would not alleviate the situation and felt the creek
was not functioning adequately as a storm sewer as it was intended.
There was a discussion of the adequacy of the storage capacity of Pond
GL -P5 and the possibility of adding further storage capacity to Pond
GI -P4.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Spaeth, seconded by
Hoyt, to remove the Dards on Pond GL -P5 fimiediately
larger ponding area until the drainage problem in th+
resolved and to replace the boards Shen the level of

Councilaember Neils replied a parcel with under 600 feet of frontage
would be assessed for the entire frontage. He explained the assess-
ment policy and the prcposed deferral policy and stated the time limit
for the deferral has nnt been set yet.
Mr. Guddal reported the consensus of the meetings was that residents
felt they do not enjoy the use of an average residential street since
Vicksburg is a City thoroughfare, but they would accept the assessment
If they could get more assistance from funds availrble to the City.
They requested the Council to consider using a larger portion of M.S.A,
funds to assist in the construction of this portion of Vicksburg Lane.
Council reviewed the M.S.A. balance sheet and the proposed allocation
of funds for 1979,
Dwaine Johnson, 5110 Vicksburg, stated Lhe project would be more accept-
able to res ents if it res assessed on a 50-50 basis. He inquired
whether the deferred essesement, when it came Due, would be payable
in one lump sum. Mayor Hunt replied at the time the deferred assessment
period expires, an assessment roll will be prepared for the normal 10 -year
assessment period. Mr. Johnson requested that Council consider a defer-
ment policy that would enable resi;'ent: with large parcels who wish to
continue to live there and not dev:lop their property t: defer the assess-
ment for a longer period or spread the assessment over a longer period.
Engineer Olson spoke on the requireme,its for right-of-way for Vicksburg
Lane. He stated the road will be built within the present 66 ft, right-
of-way, but in areas where. the road must be raised or lowered, the rb-
quirement for construction of backslopes Will require additional right-
of-way. In some areas the City would acquire temporary construction
easements to accomplish moving of earth. These easements will expire
after the project is completed and the property will be restored 04
seeding or sod, as appropriate with the land adiacent.
Mayor Hunt recommended that the cost of the easements not be 1%luded
in the M.S.A. portion of expenditures and be recovered by assessment.
M.S.A. funds would be applied only to actuel construction costs.
MOTION was made by Cuuncilmember Spaeth, seconded by Mayor !aunt,
to direct the Assessment Committee to work out a 3.a-50 assessment
for the improvements on Vic:ksburq Lane frm Cnunty toad 9 to County
Road 47.

ment of these sites at the time of site plan approval.
