TAYLOR ?.E. C.TY ENGINEER COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND. IND. 46621 AREA 219 284 -9251 October 27, 1971 Memo to: Board of Public-"Works and Safety Subject: Storm Water Retention Basin in Crestwood Gardens (Lagoon "E ") In December, 1969 the firm of Charles W. Cole and Son, Inc. prepared a storm drainage study of the northeast section of the City. In this Study a storm water retention basin was recommended for construction in an open area of land south of Edison Road between the Edison Park and McKinley Terrace Additions. This basin was to gather storm water from 93 acres of land. Op, Late in 1970 a petition was filed with the Area Plan Commission I, to rezone the open.area to B residential for the construction of apartments. In our review of this project we stated in our memo I. to the Area Plan Commission dated November 4, 1970 the following: "The problem of greatest concern to us is that the southern part of this site has been designated as a proposed storm water detention basin. I do not feel that we can stand in the way of the required rezoning for this reason; therefore, it is up to the City to negotiate with the developer for the needed detention basin site ". It was later discussed with the developer (Crestwood Management i Company) the possibility of incorporating the storm water basin into the project, thereby creating open space and beautification plus fulfilling the needs of the City. This was agreed to and the firm of Engineering Planning Services, Inc. was directed by 'I the developer to prepare a report on the analysis of the cost distribution of the retention basin. This report was prepared by the firm and approved by the Engineering Department of the City. The report pointed out that the proposed lagoon would have a capacity of 6.5 acre -feet as compared to the required 13.958 acre feet required for the full 93 acres, thereby serving only 43.5 acres. Since Crestwood Apartments would be contributing 8.85 acres of runoff to the basin it was determined they should contribute 20% of the cost of land and construction of the basin. ;' o Page 2 October 27, 1971 Memo to: Board of Public Works and Safety The estimated construction cost was $25,060. 80% of the construction cost amounts to $20,048. The City employed Jack Harris to appraise the property -- this report was filed with the Engineer September 27, 1971 and indicated a value of $8500 per acre. The amount of land in question is 1.84 acres and based on the above price would amount to $15,640. If the City bears 80% of this cost, the City's share would be $12,512. Total project cost would be as follows: City share of construction cost - - - - - $20,048.00 City share of land cost - - - - - - - 12,512.00 Appraisal Fee - - - - - - - - - - - - - 105.00 Contingency - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3,335.00 $36,000.00 The above figures have been accepted by the developer as stipulated i in the Memorandum of Agreement between the Board and the Developer dated October 26, 1971. The Engineering Department hereby requests the preparation of an ordinance to the City Council appropriating from the Cumulative Sewer Building and Sinking Fund $36,000.00 for this project. The Engineering Department believes this project is necessary for the health, welfare and safety of the citizens and taxpayers of the City of South Bend, and that the project will be of public use and benefit. Subject to the availability of appropriated funds we recommend the acquisition of the necessary land by purchase, gift or condemnation. ArIPPROVED SO U119 OF PUBIC WORKS & SAFETY LST:td cc: Jame: S.
