SUBJECT: Vine Hill Road Infiltration Basin
J. Michael Walford, Public Works Director, presented to the
Board a report on alternatives for a temporary solution to the Vine
Hill Road infiltration basin problem (copy attached hereto and by
reference incorporated herein) . Mr. Walford recommended that the
existing basin be fenced until such time as an amendment to the
Drainage Area 29H plan could be adopted to provide for construction
of a relocated basin.
Peggy Chapin, 4781 Knarlwood Road, Oakley, spoke in oppo-
sition to the fence, and urged the Board to continue a
guard at the basin until the one-foot level was reached.
Pauline Elcenko, 2830 Vine Hill Road, Oakley, stated that
a fence was unacceptable, and urged that the County resolve
the problem as expeditiously as possible.
After discussion by Board members, IT IS ORDERED that the
Public Works Director (Flood Control Division) is DIRECTED that
fencing of the Vine Hill Road infiltration basin is not to proceed,
that a guard is to be kept on the scene at the basin until the water
reaches the one-foot level, and that flyers are to be distributed to
all .area residents notifying them of the dangers and encouraging
them to keep children out of the area.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Flood Control staff is
DIRECTED to report as soon as possible, with advance notification to
the area residents, on alternative solutions such as a new basin,
pumping to another site, and landscaping, and to look at other forms
of temporary protection such as road barriers or ropes in lieu of
fencing.
