Status of Report of Insur- Attorney Rautenstraus advised that originally ance Co. he had sent the information to the insurance company on this problem and Mrs. Pierce of the Finance Dept. checked with the in- surance last week and they stated their adjuster was dealing with Mr. Grant. Attor- ney Rautenstraus had not heard that there was a big problem. He certainly did not have any problem with contacting the in- surance company and suggesting that they must this up on their list to check on. Mayor and Council requested that he do this. As a possible solution, Mr. Huson stated the plan is to have an outfall system that originates at the Louisville North area diagonally to the northeast, then along Colorado Hiway 42 and turn into Baseline. He stated that if the funding is available and the weather holds out, this could be accomplished by next summer. Councilman Leary Verified with Director of Financial Services Asti-Caranci that if the sales tax issue were passed, a percentage of this along with the bonding issue would provide funds for construction of the storm drainage. He also commented that in the 1970's this should have been the responsibility of the developer; then asked what are we doing to insure that this .will not recur with the property being developed to the north? Mr. Huson stated that in 1982 Council ap- proved a master drainage plan that identified all major storm drainage outfalls within the City of Louisville and unincorporated surrounding Boulder County. Presently if anyone develops in the City of Louisville they must complete those improvements to a specific point that damage will not occur or participate in a drainage basin that has been set-up. This fee is collected along with building permits and allocated to the storm drainage fund.
