Mr. Guerriere noted that since the subdivision had been approved for Corners Road that the carlson Corp. is ready to consider the building of the Spec Warehouse and that upon the designing of the warehouse with truck docks in the front that the elevation is too low to install the drainage as proposed and they would like to take it down on their own property and into a point on Francis Avenue. All the drainage would be on- site drainage. Nothing will go on the street. Mr. Guerriere noted that the pipe invert at the turn around was too high. He noted that they will have a closed system down Corners Avenue and they will maintain it on their own property. Chairman Zaffini noted that the definitive plans had been approved withoutthe drainage ditch. Mr. Guerriere noted that the drainage ditch would be on theLr own site. Planner Latham noted that about 5 years ago the Board had requested a drainage design for the entire park to avoid having the plans changed often. Mr. Guerriere noted that it would be hard to design the drainage when you don't know what is going on a particular lot. He noted that develop the site to meet the drainage approved they would have to fill 3 to 4 feet and this is not feasible, and that the proposal is for drainage just on their own property and if it required a covenant it would be acceptable. Planning Director Maurer questioned how the siteplan for the rrailroad relates 6 to the plan that has been approved. Mr. Guerriere noted that there had been no change in the railroad. Planning Director Maurer questioned if the hole area was piped what size pipe they would need. Mr. Guerriere noted that it would take from an 18 inch to a 24 inch pipe and then there might be a problem because tt is too high. Chairman Zaffini noted that the Board had approved the subdivision without' this drainage on site and it could possibily require a new public hearing. Mr. Guerriere noted that they are not affecting the street profile and street drainage as they are only changing the drainage on their own site.
