[ Search Result Limit: Project Description
| Please describe your proposed project: | Road approach access and culvert to the property easement needs repair along with filling in the current washout area. To complete the repair we will remove the culvert and replace with two new 40-50' culverts side-by-side. Easement road on west side of approach has a steep incline going west from Peony onto the easement road. We will scrape down 3-4 ft of the easement hill to lesson the steep incline. The fill scraped off will be used to fill in the washout area on both ends of the culvert. Both ends of the culvert area will be filled with dirt(fill), drainage rock and rip-rap to create a stable drainage area on both ends of the culvert. This will help to slow and spread the water coming thru the culvert. The access road (approach) will be widened to 20 feet, to allow safer access and egress from the easement road. Currently the approach is maybe 10 ft wide with a steep incline and not safe for use as any slippery conditions could cause a vehicle to slid into the washout area. Class 5 will be added to the easement road to firm up the area that was dug out from the incline. Straw rolls and/or straw blankets will be used to assist with any erosion control. All vegetative areas will be reseeded to help with erosion. See attached diagram. I have recently purchased property on Taylor Lake and will need access across the approach/culvert to get to my property. I have contacted all the neighboring property owners and everyone is in agreement that this project needs to happen this year to prevent any further washout. I am the point of contact for the project. Property ID (PIN): 07-0-010003 Tax District: FARM ISLAND TWP Taxpayer Name: SERBUS, CURTIS |

Other Information
| Other: | Easement access road is already in place but has washout on both sides. The intent is to replace the old culverts with 2 new culverts. Fill in the washout area, place drainage rock and rip-rap to slow and spread water. There is a steep incline from Peony onto the property that will be scraped down to lesson the incline, that dirt will be used to fill the washout area and widen the access road to allow a safer approach and egress from the easement road onto Peony Ave. Property Lines are currently staked. Electrical lines will be marked. |
