The scope includes a topographic survey, conceptual design, development of construction documents and cost estimates for an approximately 3½-acre area identified for the project. Staff said the proposer estimated a 4-to-6-week timeline for the conceptual design and indicated cost estimates could be plus or minus 20 percent at the conceptual stage. Staff emphasized they wanted a native-plant focus and a project that balances stormwater messaging with wildlife habitat.

The board discussed scope control and agreed that the consultant should deliver a 50% conceptual design at the next Stormwater Board meeting so the board can manage project scope and cost before final design proceeds.

Blaine Howell of Western Engineering told the board the project focuses on corrugated metal storm sewer pipe in the Cooper subdivision totaling approximately 1,900 linear feet. The work will install an internal liner to extend the pipe life with minimal excavation and preserve road and surface restoration areas. The project scope includes one repair where the pipe is collapsed and one panel warranty repair for maintenance purposes.

The board moved, seconded and approved a motion to accept plans and specifications prepared by staff in coordination with Western Engineering and to authorize staff to advertise the Cooper’s drainage relining project for bid.

Paul Knaertzer, president of the Summerfield Village HOA, described three neighborhood ponds; two existing fountain units are no longer repairable and replacements cost between about $9,000 (quote from Solitude) and about $13,000 (quote from ASI Aquatics). Knaertzer said the HOA includes approximately 335 homes and recently raised annual dues to $165. He said the HOA’s available cash was about $12,000, an amount he described as approximately half of the association’s savings.

Board members and the HOA discussed preferred contractors; Knaertzer said Solitude (the HOA’s maintenance contractor) offered a discount and is the HOA’s preferred vendor. The board confirmed on-site electrical and discussed algae-control and maintenance concerns.

A motion was made to authorize a public–private partnership agreement with the Summerfield Village Homeowners Association for pond aeration and fountain replacement for the East and South ponds in Summerfield Village, in an amount not to exceed $7,450, with terms and conditions to be determined by the legal department and the requirement that the O&M manual be updated and recorded.

Staff explained the waiver request under Greenwood municipal code and the Greenwood Stormwater Technical Standards Manual: the city’s rule requires two best-management-practice structures in series for developments that disturb at least 1 acre (Greenwood Municipal Code section 9-158(d) and Chapter 9(b) of the stormwater technical standards). Staff said the April Drive project as constructed disturbed about 0.8 acres; the additional disturbance shown on the master plan was associated with future development that would be required to provide its own outfall and water-quality control.

A staff representative said the originally proposed second BMP was not installed and that, as built, the project does not include the required cell associated with the standard manual. Staff recommended granting the waiver but requested conditions: specifically, update the operation and maintenance (O&M) manual and record the as-built documentation.

A motion was made to grant the request of Kimberly Horn on behalf of Greenwood Village South for a waiver from Greenwood Municipal Code section 9-158(d) and the stormwater technical standards manual Chapter 9(b) to allow a single BMP rather than two in series, finding the applicant met criteria set by Greenwood Municipal Code section 9-162(c). The motion included the condition to update the O&M manual and to record the as-built documents. The board adopted the motion by voice vote; all present board members said \"aye.\" Staff noted that a written notice of decision will be provided following the board’s action.

Board discussion clarified that future development in the master plan area will be required to provide separate outfalls and water-quality controls and that granting the waiver for the current constructed phase does not waive future development requirements.","Greenwood Stormwater Board granted a waiver to allow a single BMP where the municipal standard requires two in series for projects disturbing at least 1 acre; the board found the applicant met waiver criteria and conditioned approval on updating the operation and maintenance manual and as-built documents.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6175798,"Greenwood board approves $500 toward stormwater mural on North Madison Avenue",223,101000,324000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5353024-b9f73853df380393fceb0057d488639d&start=101&end=324","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5353024-b9f73853df380393fceb0057d488639d/thumbnail_101000.jpg","/articles/6175798/Greenwood/Johnson-County/Indiana/Greenwood-board-approves-500-toward-stormwater-mural-on-North-Madison-Avenue","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6175798-c7c3516ba39a970dfd36cd70e8d97421/orig.mp4?Expires=1771163583&Signature=N3Tr7w7AHOO9T~7SvP-O7Jp61JjJjZvN5cp7qceXGEH-sJceEBPOg33nenV9y3Oi8oqs56E5KF0FIhOkGqYWnyZnTRi1QQIf5NmLrrH3cSKk6n2~o25KIxVhVVs0uCE7RkJIc92Sr~-~3Y14xwQWjHcEBbKIo28JIG9E0~tXXDzJhcRVEOe1uih2PBkeVwNHjJweaa-kFYI1qaYXweknYVGlLC3j-FOCifntEVEGZjQhnIphBfw9UUnaX9ZaKUM7ZMC~DIWN59yuLWTiDa15vMNlGDyoEtQUJOSxIdJQxLmor1H91e06rbPOFSZzJ0szzrFAJp5YPGfxw62pWceasQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Greenwood Stormwater Board voted to contribute $500 to a proposed stormwater mural planned for North Madison Avenue, the board decided July 9.

Anna, an intern in the Planning Division, told the board the mural’s purpose is to raise public awareness about stormwater pollution, discourage littering and support Greenwood’s sustainability goals. She said a local artist affiliated with Art Studio will volunteer to paint the mural and may sign their business name on the work. Anna described environmentally friendly materials and presented a $500 budget; she said some materials will be donated or provided at no cost.

Board members asked practical questions about the pilot nature of the project; Anna said the plan is to start with a single storm drain mural to evaluate public response and paint performance before expanding. The proposed location is on North Madison Avenue in front of Art Studio. The board moved and seconded a contribution request, took a voice vote and the motion passed with all members saying \"aye.\" The motion authorized staff to submit the request for the $500 contribution.

The presenter and board discussed links between the mural and the city’s GIS efforts. Anna said staff is working with the GIS team to add the mural to an interactive ArcGIS map so the mural can become part of a broader outreach effort.

The board did not attach additional conditions to the contribution; no formal contracts or further approvals were described at the meeting. The board closed the item after approving the funding and exchanging brief logistics about next steps.","The Greenwood Stormwater Board approved a $500 contribution to a stormwater mural project proposed for North Madison Avenue to raise awareness about stormwater pollution and beautify the area; the artist will volunteer and some materials will be provided at no cost.","actionData","errors"]
