11. The grading plan provided does not consider the flow pattern generated by X
the existing terrain. The proposed grading plan would direct all overflow off
the south side of the property. Existing patterns direct flow about equally to
the north and the south. To correct the given plan Staff recommends: a)
construction of a swale on the north side of the parking lot; b) move
exfiltration system to the east, disconnecting Catch Basin "C"; c) place a
new catch basin, connected to the relocated exfiltration system, in the north
swale; and direct the west building downspouts to the west retention pond
and the east building downspouts to the north retention pond. These steps
should allow overflow to the north and south in accordance with the historic
pattern.
12. Provide a typical section for the .drainage swale. X
