Report:
I
As a result of concerns expressed regarding rear lot drainage at
No. 15 Summerfield Court in Bowmanville, the matter was reviewed
and included in the 1981 Budget as a priority item.
From Summerfield Court to Sunset Road there is a walkway which is
ten feet in width-but, between existing fences, the width varies
from 7 ft. 4 ins. to 8 ft. A sanitary sewer runs through the centre
of the walkway; from an on-site investigation is- has been determined
that the storm sewer on Sunset Road is not on the street but in the
boulevard and serves little or no purposes other than two catch
basins.
In view of our findings it is impossible to construct a storm sewer
through the walkway, due both to existing plant and width rest-
rictions, therefore the only alternative is to obtain an agreement
with the affected property owner whereby the Town may construct a
manhole and install one hundred feet of 18" C.I.P. on private property.
It is suggested that a Permission to Enter Agreement be executed
which will indicate, the Town's purpose; the affected owners would
be responsible for 'the final grading, topsoiling, seeding or sodding.
Further to this an Easement should be obtained in respect of the
storm sewer presently located on private property.
