3. There appears to be drainage coming from the north and south and the proposed grades will likely
result ponding issues on adjacent properties. Additionally, the proposed southern swale
discharges onto adjacent property with no outfall control measure nor conveyance. Measures to
avoid flooding of adjacent property such as conveying it through/around the site, directing all
onsite drainage to the proposed infiltration system, establishing/obtaining public drainage
easements and offsite improvements to establish adequate outfall may be necessary. Any offsite
drainage routed through/around the site will need a drainage easement to assist with the mission
of new Stormwater Services department starting in July. Construction of offsite drainage
conveyance measures that will be maintained by the County will need to observed during
construction by Stormwater Services and a turnover meeting scheduled once the system is ready
to be conveyed to the County.

1. Although the project appears to disturb less than one acre, the proposed site is within an existing
grading permit and will therefore be required to obtain an erosion control permit. Please submit
for permit as the design is completed.
2. A land disturbing permit and a modification to the stormwater system authority to construct (ATC
#592-11/18/13) is required for this project. Please submit for permits as the design is completed.
3. The site plan component checklist requirement for storm pipes, drainage features and
stormwater management features isn’t provided and it is assumed the drainage will
conveyed/piped to the offsite permitted pond. If so, an operation and maintenance agreement
with the offsite parcel will be required.

completion certification of the stormwater ATC to verify previous pond maintenance and ensure
permitted volumes still exists.
5. If there is any offsite drainage routed through or around the site or onsite drainage exiting the
site with inadequate conveyance/outfall, a drainage easement to assist with the mission of new
Stormwater Services department starting in July may be required. Construction of offsite drainage
conveyance measures that will be maintained by the County will need to observed by Stormwater
