CONSTRUCTION OF STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENT LN THE FOLLOWING:
On an easement line from East Sunnyslope Road to a point in Lot 13, Block 1,
Sunnyslope Section, Country Club District, said point being 45 feet west of
the east line of 65 feet south of the north line of said Lot 13,

Registered Professional Engineer, stated that he represented Mr, A, 1. Raugland,
4821 I?. Sunnyslope Road,, and presented letters written by several architectural and
consulting engineers, as welL as a petition signed by owners of eleven properties, which
requested that action taken relative to Storm Sewer Nob 104 be rescinded,
stated that he would recommend that Mrs. Mann regrade her lot rather than attempt a
shallow storm sewer which would flow into Minnehaha Creek.
question as to the effectiveness of a swale, Mr. Erickson stated that he was sure fhat
the construction of a swale would alleviate blrsb 1iIann's problem but that he believed
the grading required would be detrimental and cause an inconvenience to the owners of
the property through which the swale would run,
as to whether there would be a pond at the rear of Mrs. Nann's lot if a retaining wall
was built, Nr. Erickson stated that the grade could be raised so that the water would
flow out. Mayor Bredesen asked the affect of a retaining wall on the appearance of
Mrs. Mann's property and was told by Mr. Raugland that he believes that it would enhance
the appearance of the home, particularly if a patio would be added.
that he feels that a change in the contom of the land has occurred prior to the
flooding of bks. Mann's property in 1965 which has forced additional water to drain
to the Mann property, and stated that Mr, Erickson's solution is not very dif€erent
from the solution suggested by the Village.

could cause a potential tragedy,
Mrs. Mann fills her lot as suggested by Mr. Raugland, a pond with a depth of over two
feet would result.
third party decide on a solution to the problem,
as to whether he would allow a swale to go through his property, Mr. Jones stated that
he believes that a swale would be too detrimental to the Gravelle property.
B~edesen then asked the Village Attorney if the Village would be liable for any damages
which might result from grading done by Mrs. Mann.
not believe that either the Village or Mrs, Mann would have any responsibility for
water damage to other properties,
