CONSIDERA TIONS:
A resident of Wedge wood Tennis Villas raised the issue of a "sinkhole" near Winter
Springs Boulevard and Tuscora Drive at the last Commission meeting. Staff has previoLlsly heen
. contacted by the HOA and offered technical assistance relative to this problem. In oLlr opinion. (he
problem is not a sinkhole but a washout due to swale erosion during a heavy rain event or potential
leakage of the drainage pipe in this area or a combination thereof. The problem is located un HO/\
property and the infrastructure is private. There is apparently a dispute between the adjacent
property owner who installed downspout piping in this area and the HOA aboLlt the caLIse. We
have recommended they contact a consultant for expert analysis of this problem.
