Big Cedar Addition
October 24, 1994
I was recently contacted by the resident at 525 Lynn Court concerning lot drainage. Upon
visiting his property on Friday, October 21 st, I noted that the homes that front on Melinda Court
drain to the east and through his property. The drainage plan that was approved for the Big
Cedar Addition clearly shows that the property on Melinda Court should be draining to Melinda
Court and the property on Lynn Court should be draining to Lynn Court i.e., the drainage divide
should be at the rear of the properties. This means that the properties should be draining to the
front of their property. I request that when the remaining homes are built that the drainage
patterns, as provided with this letter, be followed as closely as possible. It is very critical that
the drainage at 526 Melinda be taken out to Melinda as opposed to the rear of the property.
This might require the builders to do something innovative because of the drainage patterns
already set by 522 and 530 Melinda. Again, a strong attempt should be made to insure that the
drainage is properly drained to Melinda as opposed to the rear of the lot. This is very critical
for the existing homes on Lynn Court.
If you should have any questions concerning this please feel free to contact me at your
convenience.
