Gentlemen:
. Re: Chelsea Ridge - Section 5
Site Plan Approval
This department has reviewed the Site Plan for the Chelsea Ridge - Section 5 develop-
ment which has been reviewed by your Boord. .
Of particular concern has been your request that proper downstream drainage be considered
in any site plan approval. Our review of the requirements for downstream drainage indi-
cated a concern that the culvert in Chelsea Road may not be sufficient to handle the
future flows. With this in mind,'f!e requested that the developer obtain a permit to en-
large the culvert under our roadway.
The documents for the permit have been reviewed by this department, and the permit will
be issued within this week, Our review of the documents indicate that the improvements
within the County right-oi-way will be a minimum of $15,000 and the additional work
outside of the right-of-way could easily exceed the $26,000 estimated for the downstream
drainage by the Town.
The County wishes to stress that we have at this time no experience on record that indi-
cates the existing culvert under Chelsea Rood would require replacement due to the en-
dangering of the highway. This means that we have no program nor have we anticipated
the replacement of this culvert due to County needs. The replacement as proposed is an
integral part of the downstream drainage for the entire basin and is not strictly a County
highway need.
With this in mind, I believe it would be faitfo assume that all the work done by the de-
veloper of Chelsea Ridge could be assessed as part of the downstream drainage plan that
your Town has initiated.
