RE: Modification of Approved Subdivision 22 SUB 3
East Lake Road and Fire Street
CLA-7064Q
Dear Meredith:
CLA Engineers, Inc. (CLA) has received the application materials for the above referenced project
located on the Town Form Repository:
https://www.townofmontville.org/form-repository/25-sub-2-modification-to-22-sub-3-east-lake-
rd-subdivision/
CLA has previously been onsite with the Owner and Public Works. We have reviewed the plans
with John Carlson at Public Works and offer the following comments:
1. The proposed 20’ wide drainage easement should be extended to the westerly property line
for Lot 7 to allow Public Works adequate access for future maintenance.
2. The curve in the swale should be armored with riprap over geotextile fabric.
3. There is concern that the check dams in the swale may cause pooling and overtop the swale.
Can the swale depth be increased ±1’ or check dam heights be adjusted.
4. A sign or placard should be installed at the swale instructing the homeowner that no
dumping of leaves, grass trimmings, etc. is allowed in the swale.
5. The new drainage work should be completed prior to the lot development to route the
stormwater around the work site and reduce erosion potential.
6. We recommend a bond be put in place for the proposed drainage work.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this review. Please feel free to call me at our office or
email khaubert@claengineers.com with any questions.
Very truly yours,
CLA Engineers, Inc.
