Windsor Meadows <br /> August 19,2004 Page 2 <br /> B. Drainage/Septic Design <br /> • Outlot B contains the clustered system location, a storm water pond with a flared <br /> end section conveying storm drainage which ends 150 feet away from the storm <br /> water pond,together with the pavilion and playground open space area. We <br /> question whether these three uses are compatible in the same area. Sheet 3 of 4 <br /> shows the playground area being less than 100 feet from the major components of <br /> the clustered septic system. Also,the secondary septic site extends down to the <br /> boundary of the wetland delineation and is on severe slopes with over 22 feet of fall <br /> across the 200-foot site. We would recommend that re-design of the development <br /> layout is necessary to re-evaluate the siting of these uses. <br /> • The storm drainage calculations submitted appear to be adequate for the proposed <br /> development. There are some minor issues which need to be worked out regarding <br /> the pond outlets and side slopes. <br /> • We have indicated to the developer that a committee of staff is working on review of <br /> clustered septic system designs. This is a result of the first several cluster systems <br /> and analyzing problems that have arisen and designs that work well. It is staff's <br /> intention to come up with a policy relative to the types of designs that will be <br /> acceptable. <br /> • There are other minor comments regarding the grading of the site, however,we <br /> believe that with the significant questions relative to the layout of the site,these <br /> minor grading questions will be re-evaluated as the site layout questions are <br /> addressed. <br /> If you have any questions regarding these issues, please call. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> HOWARD K GREEN COMPANY <br /> GGll4C0 <br /> Terry J. aurer,P.E. <br /> S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2004\P 04-18 Windsor Meadows\Engineers memo.doc <br />
