Title:
Consider Retention Pond Improvements Near 5430 149th Lane
Background:
The City had previously received a concern on the storm water retention pond by the adjacent landowner. The resident had requested that the City consider clearing the trees and removing the pond. The resident was also concerned with the smell.
Notification:
Several recent attempts have been made to contact the adjacent homeowner, however, they have been unsuccessful.
Observations:
The pond is a storm water detention pond that is in place to treat storm water before entering into the natural drainage system. The pond is located within the drainage and utility easement. The pond is necessary due to state regulations and cannot be removed / filled in. The trees adjacent to the pond could be cleared and would be recommended for ease of future maintenance.
Funding Source:
Any pond maintenance is anticipated to be completed with city crews
Staff Recommendation:
We recommend that the pond configuration must largely remain as is. However, the trees can be cleared and we recommend removal of the trees.
Committee Action:
Motion to recommend clearing of trees.
