Concurrently, he has stated that the retention pond south of his property, constructed as part of the Prairie Ponds Development, is the cause of his problem. Since this condition was first reported a great deal of research has occurred. Recently, at Mr. Oberg’s request, L&S Associates, Inc. completed an evaluation of the groundwater near his residence. A copy of this report has been included within the agenda packet as well as several other re lated documents. Staff will provide an overview on this issue and seek direction from the Board. 3) PRAIRIE CREEK BRIDGE CONCEPT PLAN The Prairie Creek developer seeks to construct a bridge crossing of the east branch of the Norman Drain consisten t with the Concept Plan approved with the Prairie Creek planned unit development. Construction of the bridge crossing is required to complete construction of retention areas for the commercial portion of the Prairie Creek development and to provide temporary access to the east side of the property.
