Drainage Issues - Heritage Landing
Three Heritage Landing I & II drainage meetings have been held since the
Council last met on 11/3/97. The responsibility for solving this problem lies
with the developers and their engineer. The 1995 solution to the drainage
problem was to have a drainage swale all on the Heritage II easement. Part
of the basis for this solution was that the water that gets to this area comes
exclusively from Heritage II. This is regardless of the fact that Heritage I
was graded incorrectly.
At the Thursday, November 13, 1997, meeting, the developers indicated that
they would reestablish the drainage in this area all on the Heritage II
easement. It was stated that this drainage solution would function properly
in spite of the fact that an additional drainage easement has not been
obtained over Lot 3. This means that the drainage work along this lot in
Heritage II will have to be completed within the six foot area that is part of
the platted easement. The developers and their engineer indicate that this
can be accomplished.
