Stormwater Pond Approval for Cobourg Subdivision - Crespi Land Development
Official title: Crespi Land Development Corporation - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)
A developer wants to build a dry stormwater pond to serve a new residential subdivision near Cobourg, Ontario. The pond would collect rainwater runoff from the new homes and roads, then release it into an existing roadside ditch along County Road 18.
Why This Matters
Live near County Road 18 in Hamilton Township? This stormwater system will handle runoff from a new subdivision. If it's not designed right, you could see more water in roadside ditches or changes to local drainage patterns.
What Could Change
If approved, Crespi Land Development can proceed with building the stormwater pond and residential subdivision. The dry pond will become part of the local drainage infrastructure, directing treated runoff into the County Road 18 ditch system.
Key Issues
- Is the proposed dry pond adequate to manage stormwater from the new subdivision?
- Will the discharge to the roadside ditch cause flooding or drainage problems?
