<br />PLEASANT VIEH ~lASTER DRAIKAGE STUDY <br /> <br />PHASE A <br /> <br />SECTION I <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />This Master Drainage Study is within an area of Jefferson County ca.lled <br />Pleasant View. The area studied is bounded on the North by South Table <br />Mountain, on the South by Old Golden Road, on the East by Lena Gulch, and <br />on the Hest by Ulysses Street (extended). <br /> <br />This area was subdivided in the late 1950's and early 1960's. At that <br />time drainage reports for land subdivision were not a requirement of <br />platting by the County. As a result, many residences within the study <br />area have been flooded or still may be flooded by storm runoff. Flooding <br />conditions are created by snow melt or modE~rate rainfall in the area due <br />to inadequate capacity of the drainage channel. The scope of work for <br />this study was to compile information from residents pertaining to existing <br />I ~.flooding problems, prepare alternate solutipns to eliminate flood caused <br />damages, and prepare cost evaluations of tllose alternates. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />Citizen input was of major concern duri.ng the alternate solution formula- <br />tions, and several meetings with intere.sted residents t....ere held in the <br />field and in the office. As a result the study has proceeded with the <br />affected residents' suggestions and opi,nions in mind. This report con- <br />tains the recommendations of the Engineering Department and Legal Depart- <br />ment and was forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for their re- <br />view and action. The final design and construction drawings will be pre- V' <br />pared for the alternates selected at the direction of the Board., <br /> <br />I <br />
