The lot owner has done what they can do. There is still a pool of water but do to the elevations around the lot this is difficult to remedy until the lot is developed. The owner is aware of the issue and has made an effort to remedy the situation. He has also agreed to excavate a swale further to the south to make sure the rear yards have a place to drain to.

I met with the builder of the lot. He had graded out the fill dirt on the empty lot and put straw matting down. We also talked about grading a swale along the side/rear yards of the downstream lots.

I visited the site this week. 1527 S Andrew Cir. and the adjacent 1552 S Coleman Ct. are owned by the same LLC. 1552 S Coleman Ct. has a newly finished single-family home, 1527 S Andrew Cir. remains undeveloped but disturbed. It appears from tracks between the two lots that 1527 S Andrew Cir. may have been used as a borrow site for 1552 S Coleman Ct. Grading permits are not required for land-disturbing activity on an individual single-family lot but Title 20 does require that vacant land held for development to be planted with grass or other vegetative ground cover. Title 20 does not have requirements concerning the grade. I will reach out to the property owner regarding the timeline of development and stabilization requirements. I am not sure if there is anything in your portion of the code that would require the site to be brought to a particular grade as to not alter the natural flow patterns or not. If the lot is not developed and becomes a mosquito issue in the spring, the Monroe County Health Department would be the contact for that.

Here is the Ureport for the lot we talked about.

Phil, thought I would send to you, rather than T&D, since this is a request for a neighboring property to make changes.
