In the past, he said, there were several different problem areas with stormwater facilities in that subdivision. All but the Pond D problems have been addressed and resolutions are either completed or in progress. Pond D is surrounded by residences with very little access in the form of easements, either for the developer or the City to go out and work with it, and there has been a serious problem with erosion on the banks of the stormwater facility. On May 7th the St. John's Water Management District, received a letter from the Developer's engineer with a reclamation plan that calls for restoring the banks through a process of surcharging the banks which is a process of compaction. To accomplish this work the Developer will need some assurances that they have the ability to enter the private property to complete this work. The Developer will be looking for some sort of agreement or hold harmless agreement with the individual lot owners to allow the Developer's crews to go out and complete the restoration work. . The engineers of the project have estimated the project will take about 60 days once they have the agreement with the lot owners. Mr. Frost suggested the City hold the performance bond for this work to insure the work is done to the satisfaction of the City and the residents that are affected by it. Then Mr. Frost spoke about the maintenance of the pond. He suggested it could be turned over to the City or the residents might form a homeowners association to make sure the operation and maintenance of the pond occurs in a timely manner.
