As-built Gradin Plan Review
Our File No. . -00 -000
Dear Jim:
We have reviewed the As-Built Gradin Plan as submitted b Bruce A. Folz & Associates for
Kyon Construction. The as-built g radin g plan, with the elevations shown and infomiation
c.o-ntain---.---,.d within, is acceptable as submitted. Th...re are two draina issues, however, that have
been brou to our attention, which are discussed below. These draina issues are the result of
settle-1n_entLs or erosion after construction, and wouldn't show up on an as-built g radin g plan.
1. The northerl intersection of the private streets (see Enclosure 1) has water that ponds at the
heast comers. Storm water noff - 'is supposed to drain southerl across
northwest and near 1
th%,a.. intersection. No concrete cross- were provided to accommodate this sc.Aenario, and
it appears that the concrete curb and g utter settlin and,/or the bituminous pavC..,,-,nent on the
side streets creatin an inade draina route causes water to pond at these locations. If
this were a public street constructed under a Cit contract, we would nncommend that
corrective measures be taken b the contractor to create proper draina and eliminate the
pondin problems (we do not have street construction plans showin elevations for t1ae street
and curb and g utter in this location, but assume it was desi properl for draina .
Z. The oth-er issue is an overland rip rap draina swale frow, the upper to the lo%ver parkin lots
in. front of the townhornes on the south side of 5 8th S treet North (sae Enclosure 2 Wc. v,
. IC11 -Y at this location in the 1'irs-- fe y ears
, w
intoftned b Cit staff that erosion was occurrin L
followin construction. Since that t-inie, the turf has established itself and erosion .has not
b%e-,-en occurrin Irt viewin this area in the field, it appears the swale is functionin with
rninor erosion occurrin under the riprap itself I also spoke with the owner of Una 4
adjacent to this area who indicated he did not have a problem with it. As such, althou this
overland rip rap draina swale ma not be the most desirable wa to conve storrn water
rannoff in this area., it appears to be functionin ade and it is our understandin that
the owner (homeowners association should be responsible for maintainin this swale.
