GENERAL <br /> <br />At the time of writing this report, there has been very little <br /> <br />regard for storm drainage within the area. The street personnel <br /> <br />of the Town of Yuma stand to be comnlended for the maintenance <br /> <br />and care taken to drain the streets adequately. It was very <br /> <br />apparent that soon after a rain there was relatively little water <br /> <br />standing in the gutters, indicating well drained streets, regular <br /> <br />sweeping and general maintenance was provided. Exhibit No. II <br /> <br />of this report indicates the existing drainage facilities in the area. <br /> <br />B. EXISTING STORM SEWERS <br /> <br />The present 12" storm sewer system in the downtown area was <br /> <br />installed prior to 1921 and at the time of installation was probably <br /> <br />adequate. Since that time, development has expanded mostly to <br /> <br />the west causing extreme overloading of the existing streets <br /> <br />and storm drains. <br /> <br />C. DETENTION PONDS <br /> <br />The existing detention ponds located throughout the Town of Yuma <br /> <br />and described herein were designed initially as catchment basins <br /> <br />only. They depend upon seepage and evaporation to lower the water <br /> <br />level for the next rain. This proceedure promotes mosquito <br /> <br />breeding, and general hazards for children playing in the area. <br /> <br />45 <br />
