NEW BUSINESS
Review grading, storm sewer and stormwater management plans for The Settlement on
Woods Road – David Simpson reviewed with the committee the construction drawings for The
Settlement on Woods Road and advised that these plans have been corrected to meet all of the
City’s requirements. While awaiting final approval from the City of Muskego and all other
approving agencies, the developer would like to begin grading operation within the Right of
Way, the outlots, and drainage swales. This would allow for immediate installation of
th
underground utilities upon all approvals. Mr. Klimeck presented a letter dated November 12,
2002 from Pete Wood of the DNR. This letter outlined some concerns the DNR would like
resolved before construction activities begin. Mr. Klimeck explained that all points would be
resolved before grading except point four which was resolved between Pete Wood and Mr.
Klimeck. This was resolved by mass grading operations being changed to grading within the
Right of Ways, drainage swales, and drainage basins.
Ald. Patterson moved to grant permission for the developer to begin initial grading
operations within the Right of Way, the drainage swales and drainage basins upon two
conditions being met. The first condition being that Sean McMullen must verify that Pete
Wood has agreed to grading without stabilization within the areas specified above.
Secondly, Sean McMullen will review the DNR letter and approve or request changes if
needed before grading operations may commence. Motion seconded by Ald. Le Doux,
motion carried 2-0.
