REQUEST FROM RESIDENTS OF KAYS KOVE SUBDIVISION - Eldon Quinn, President of Homeowners Association, 4840 Reed Street presented a slide presentation on the following issues. 1. What is the plan for the ditch bank on Hiline Road to Chubbuck Road. 2. Eldon Quinn stated six residents in Kays Kove continue to have flooding problems every time we have a storm of any size. The runoff from Hiline Road to their fence line and into their yards and patios has been a real problem since they moved in. On average they get 6-10 inches of water and one to three inches of mud runoff with each storm. Mr. Quinn stated the storm drains on Hiline do not remove the water fast enough to prevent runoff from entering their yards. The development’s building contractor used large rocks as a retaining wall. The dirt around the rocks has been for the most part washed away on to their property. One resident has had his basement flooded three different times. Mr. Quinn stated another request they have is the City construct a sidewalk on Hiline Road from Chubbuck Road to the entrance of the Mormon Church parking lot. A number of people from the trailer court and Kays Kove walk to church along Hiline on the road, because the west side of the road is unsafe to walk on. Mr. Quinn also asked what is up with the sidewalk to nowhere on the east side of Hiline Road. 141 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - (cont.) September 8, 2009. REQUEST FROM KAYS KOVE RESIDENTS - (cont.)
