He then read � the following letter frqm Freese and Nichols, consulting � engineers : � � ;: Mr J. L. Hancock, Asst. City Manager � , City of Grapevine � P .O . Box 307 � Grapevine, Texas 76051 � t: Re : Forest Hill Drive Drainage � � Dear Mr. Hancock : ° �' In compliance with your request of May 6, 1974, we h�ve in- �: vestigated the recent �looding during the heavy rains of May � 5th on Forest Hill Drive just west of Dodd Lane. � k Forest Hill Drive is a County Road type o� construction with �` a 16' width o� asphalt penetration sur�ace on a high crown � with side ditches for drainage. The recent ir�stallation o� a �, a sanitary eewer along the south shoulder has damaged the � , gravel base and the surf acing. The lots on the south side of � the street west o� Dodd Lane are on the low side and in a �. swale handling approximately 15 acres of drainage. Although �' � these low lots have had some fill placed on them, the ground is below the street grade. There is an existing 12" pipe � crossing Forest Hill Drive in front o� Lot 5 and recently an additional 12" pipe was installed diagonally across the street � on the west side of the Dodd Lane intersection and the ditches , graded. � The heav� rains in this area on May 5th, reported to be a roximatel 4" over�lowed the side ditches and crossed � PP Y several lots on the south side of Forest Hill Drive and rose an elevation approx�imate],y 3" above the floor at 2205 Forest Hill Drive which is adjacent to Dodd Lane. The floor of this : house at Elevation 587. 19 is approximatily 3" below the pro-- i posed permanent parkway grade on Forest Hill Drive. � The flooding probably would have been prevented by proper con- strwction during develapment o� the sub-division by cutting down Forest Hill Drive to city street se�!tion sloping to the ; east, constructing curb and gutters , filling in the low lots with street excavation and bui''lding the floors af' tl�e haus�s not less than 8" above the adjecent �inished ground lines. � In order to relieve ,f uture flooding it will be necessary to excavate Forest Hill Drive to proposed curb grades �or a dis- � �` tance of approximately 450' , in�tall one 10' ir�let and one 20' inlet and approximately 252' o� storm drainage pipe, construct � 6" gravel base for the street and surf ace� with 2-course as- � phal� penetration suf^face. . Future curbs end gutters can be � installed in the reconstructed area of the street by the pro- � perty owners when desired. The proposed grades have been � developed to meet exi5ting driveways as closely as possible. The estimated cost for the project is as �ollows : � � � � f � � � � � � � � � � � s � # ' � Starm Drain - ' � Excevation 250 C .Y . @ $ 3. 00 - $ �50. 00 � 27" R. C .
