Architect says stormwater plan will prevent runoff; board asks about gully erosion
Summary
Architect presented a stormwater retention plan with five leeching pools and said system calculations show no runoff to Briarcliff Road; a board member raised concerns about an existing gully and Chair Sweet noted fresh erosion during a site visit.
The project’s stormwater retention plan includes five leeching pools—two for the driveway, one for the garage, and two at corners of the house serving the pool and roof—and the architect said the design "meets and exceeds requirements" and that calculations indicate no runoff or silt onto Briarcliff Road.
A board member asked whether construction would exacerbate a natural gully on the west side of the lot that currently collects water. Architect Daniel A. Butler responded that the slope and planned leeching pools will prevent negative effects. Chair Bob Sweet recorded a site visit observation noting a shallow gully with signs of recent erosion running southwest toward a fence and a lower pool on the adjacent 127 Briarcliff property that shows past water accumulation.
