BEING A RESOLUTION REGARDING THE SIX CITIES WATERSHED
MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION'S WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
WHEREAS, the Columbia Heights City Council has reviewed in some detail the
Six Cities Water Management Organization,s Water Management Plan; and,
WHEREAS, the Columbia Heights City Council questions the cost effectiveness
of projects proposed to resolve problems described as "High Water on Tertiary
Pond/Low Water on Clover Pond" and "Flooding South of 52nd Avenue'; and,
WHEREAS, the problem described as "Flooding South of 52nd Avenue" exists
primarily as a result of an error in allowing construction of a home at the
existing elevation, and the proposed solution would tend to shift the problem
to some other location; and, in either event, the proposed solution would not
be the most cost effective method of resolving the problem; and,
WHEREAS, the provision of Flood Insurance for homes located in the flood
area south of 52nd Avenue would be a more realistic and viable alternative to
the affected homeowners;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Columbia Heights City Council that it
expresses its concern and deep reservation regarding the proposed projects
entitled "High Water on Tertiary Pond/Low Water on Clover Pond" and 'Flooding
South of 52nd Avenue. since the projects as proposed would not be cost
effective.
