Attention: Irene Paino
Reference: Cline Drainage
pine Ridge Drive
Dear Mrs. Paino:
As per Mrs. Cline's request, we have analyzed the above
drainage situation and report the following:
1) There is an existing swale along Pine Ridge Drive
draining to an existing culvert on the same street.
2) There is only 0.9% grade total on the existing swale
with many flat sections.
3) There is a 8" culvert under the Cline's driveway with
no pitch at all.
4) The existing road culvert is a 12" concrete pipe with
0.6% pitch on it.
Our recommendations are as follows:
1) The culvert under pine Ridge Drive should be lowered and
increased to 15".
2) The swale should be better defined and given more pitch.
This will allow for a more even runoff.

3) The Cline's driveway culvert should be given some pitch.
Prior to any of this work being done, the Town Attorney should
check into the legality of lowering and increasing the size
of the existing road culvert.
Please advise this office if further action should be taken.
Very truly yours,
