Fox Run Commons drainage redirection

Description

The developer wants to reroute the subdivision's stormwater discharge into Slate Run instead of the Lancaster Woods ditch, since a big rain early in construction showed the natural discharge point was problematic. The board said yes with three conditions from the third-party reviewer, with final design returning for verification.

Impact summary

Lancaster Woods residents should see less stormwater from the new development, while Slate Run culverts could see an inch to inch and a half more flow in a 100-year storm — no structures affected.
