PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
A large parcel of undeveloped City parkland drains between Lots 9 and 10, Block 4, Copper Ridge Subdivision 2nd Filing. The builder of the lots has created a swale for the water to drain through and get to the public streets. The owner has agreed to grant the city easements for the swale area between the two lots. This will allow the city to maintain the swale area in the future.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
The City Council may:
- Approve the easements; or
- Do not approve the easements. There is no alternate route for the drainage and the easements are necessary.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no significant financial impact with acceptance of these drainage easements.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council accept the drainage easements for Lots 9 & 10, Block 4, Copper Ridge Subdivision 2nd Filing.
