RE: Schumann Drainage Study
A meeting was held with the residents that were contacted by
mail to explain in detail the proposed construction for the
drainage improvements.
Five residents attended the meeting including myself,
Robert S. McClary, and Earl Mastellar, who gave a brief
introduction and opened the meeting immediately to questions
and answers.
Ed and Ramona Hue at 946 Schumann Drive, lot 29 at the
intersection of Canal and Schumann were concerned for the
restoration of their sprinkler system.
Their adjacent next door neighbor, Edna Moore at 936
Canal Circle also has a sprinkler system and expressed
concern. It was agreed that the restoration of sprinkler
systems would be completed by the contractor.
Elizabeth McFaden at 886 Lance Street Lot 33, who also
oversees her rear neighbor's Lot 14, expressed concern that
she would like to have a two week notice given by the
contractor prior to the commencement of his work in that
area. She had requested that trees on her property be
removed since they were undesirable and could possibly
conflict with the installation of the storm sewer
pipe. In addition, she expressed concern over a raw sewage
smell that exists following a moderate to heavy rainstorm and
wished to report it to the City of Sebastian.
Jane Cook at 831 Schumann Drive, Lot 5, described a private
drainage problem in which the lot behind her home is higher
and has water running from that property down across side lot
swales that outfall into the Schumann Right of way and into
the existing catch basin in front of her home. It was
explained that a proposed drainage study was for the
improvement and replacement of existing culvert
drainage pipe from inlets to the point of outfall and would
not be involved with private drainage issues.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 7:42 P. M.
By copy of this memorandum the Engineer of Record shall be
directed to make the following revisions to the drawings:
1. Indicate the Contractor shall be responsible to repair and
replace sprinkler systems encountered.
2. Increase one week notice to two weeks to allow ample time
for homeowners to make arrangements to move items in the
easements.
3. Indicate on the drawings for the two trees to be removed
described by Elizabeth McFaden.
