FEB 2.4'198 <br />BOOK .. 67 F�iu 403 <br />DISCUSSION REGARDING RESIDENTIAL STORMWATER DRAINAGE - REQUEST BY <br />TILLIE MESEC <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 2/18/87: <br />TO: The Honorable Members of the DATE: February 18, 1987 FILE: <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />THROUGH: <br />Charles P. Balczun, <br />County Administrator SUBJECT: <br />Mrs. Tillie Mesec Complaint - <br />West Roseland Watershed Area <br />FROM: James W. Davis P. REFERENCES: <br />Public Works Director <br />Mrs. Tille Mesec has asked to appear before the Board to discuss a drainage <br />complaint. During July, 1982, flooding occurred through the Mesec proper- <br />ty. That was a year when rainfall was abnormally high (76"). There has <br />been no recurrence since then of that magnitude. _ <br />Staff recommends that since only a few property owners are involved in this <br />request, a solution should be implemented when - the upstream property <br />develops in the City of Sebastian. This property should retain its on-site <br />runoff and a legal positive outfall then be required by Sebastian. <br />Mrs. Mesec thanked the Board for affording her the <br />opportunity to appear here this morning, and asked for the <br />Board's help with regard to water run-off. She explained that <br />two new homes have been built west of her residence on 2-1/2 <br />acres of property she formerly owned. Because of the new <br />requirements in the Stormwater Management Ordinance, these homes <br />are built very high and water is running off of these properties <br />into her property. Mrs. Mesec did not teel that one house has <br />complied with Ordinance 86-36 because the swale is inadequate to <br />handle the runoff water. She emphasized that this area in <br />Roseland is a watershed area with intermittent ponds and low <br />lands where water runs continuously. <br />Commissioner Bird understood that the issue is whether the <br />swale ditch is adequate in terms of Ordinance 86-36, but <br />28 <br />
