Subject: RE: 3597 Hounds Xing Trudy I was say yes on the hold but under the premise that we are verifying there is not easement encroachment issues. If it is not in our easement, I donlt really think we have any jurisdiction to tell them they canlt install the pool. The complaining neighbor ~ants us to stop it because of the increase in Stormwater runoff, but where does that stop? Do we need to have and review permits for every pool, basketball court, swing set, and even sandbox. The request is beyond what reasonable authority we have but I do want to protect our infrastructure. Does that make sense? If you have any questions, please let me know. Greg Hoyes HCSO Plan Reviewer >>> IIWeddington, Trudy A.II <tweddington@carmel.in.gov> 9:41 AM Friday, March 09, 2007 >>> Greg, Yes, we have put in a request for his address to get changed. Sorry! Bill asked me to ask you some additional questions from your e-mail. (He's out on inspections right now.) The permit for the pool has not been issued yet, but the builder, Blue Haven Pools, has been notified that it is ready for pick-up. Do you want us to hold this from being issued until you have a chance to look into the drainage issues? We can do that. Without the permit, they can1t start any work.

Subject: 3597 Hounds Xing Trudy My previous e-mail was returned e-mail failed to Bill, can you help me out. Greg Bill I am guessing you just talked to a resident in Huntersfield about his neighbors pool. Can you send me a copy of the pool permit for the neighbor? I want to make sure that is does not affect our drainage facilities or encroach into our Regulated Drain Easement. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Due to some neighbors' complaining about a potential pool going into their area, the permit application for a pool at 3597 Hounds Crossing (Lot 8 Huntersfield) has been placed on a Do-Not-Issue Hold at the request of Greg Hoyes, a plan reviewer for the Hamilton County Surveyor's Office. The builder is Blue Haven Pools, and the owners are Mike and Shelly Reffeitt. The permit was approved for issuance, and we notified Blue Haven by e- mail on January 23rd (No, they haven't picked it up, yet.) The issues are whether or not the pool and/or decking are within the easements and whether or not the runoff from the pool and/or decking will create drainage issues. So, Greg Hoyes is going to investigate and let us know, because it is within a Hamilton County Drain Protection Area. (This property is outside of the City limits.) I am removing this application from the ready-to-issue drawer and putting it in the hold drawer-bottom drawer under the Okidata dot matrix printer.

Subject: Re: FW: Pool Permit Application for 3597 Hounds Crossing Trudy Thanks for the hold on this. I have looked it over and it appears they are not in the easement and are just right up to it. That really takes an legal jurisdiction we would have out of the picture. Now, in regards to the drainage, I am still looking into that and need to talk to our inspector that went out there today. I won't see him again until Monday, but I think we can make some "recommendationsl1 on how to make the water drain away from the complaining neighbor. I will let you know more on Monday. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Cc, Hohlt, William G Subject: Re: FEW: Pool Permit Application for 3597 Hounds Crossing Trudy I have talked to the inspector that visited the sight and here is what we came up with as the official stance from our office. Based on the plans with the permit, the pool is not in our easement and therefore, we have no jurisdiction over the pool itself. In regards to the drainage issues the neighbor. had, HCSO does not feel that we have any jurisdiction over somebody installing a swimming pool and increasing the runoff. Our storm sewers are designed to handle the runoff that comes from a typical subdivision and adding a swimming pool is not uncommon. The neighbor believes that the increased runoff with cause him problems, but based on the design and field verification, the water runs to the SW corner of the permit applicants lot, which is were our storm inlet is located. In a effort to "prevent 11 further "drainage problems", we would recommend the pool installer direct all the storm water runoff to the SW corner of the lot and if need be, do some minor regrading to direct the water directly to the storm inlet that is behind the berm. This should remove any runoff issues from affecting the neighbor's lot, and if not, then this really is a "private" issue between two neighbors to resolve. With that information, HCSO would ask that any holds on the pool permit be released and the project be allowed to move forward. If you have any questions, please let me know.
