First I would like to know if this Notice is for the two garage spaces (2000 SF) and the attached ADU (1000 SF)
equaling the 3000 SF accessary unit?
Our main concern is the seasonal rain runoff over the acres behind the 9061 Palomar property running across
the applicants property which originally had a seasonal creek through our property (9091 Palomar) and our
neighbors' property (9081 Palomar Ave) downstream. We have a culvert under our driveway with the creek
continuing to the culvert under Palomar Avenue. The additional run off from this new structure only adds to
the existing run off from the applicant's
roofs, concrete walks, concrete patios, RV slab and parking areas, and the ramp access to areas now used to
park trucks and equipment over the creek area. The seasonal creek is now filled with multiple feet of fill dirt
and rubble on 9061 Palomar (the applicant's property) all adding to the run off water. This water is now
moving sediment hundreds of feet through neighboring properties potentially blocking the culvert under
Palomar Avenue.
We have repeatedly asked the applicant over the last two years to stop filling in the seasonal creek with dirt
and have asked for a perc pond or retention pond equivalent to be built on their property. Instead, we were
given a pile of white boulders on fill dirt, a nice fence lined with trees, which looks nice, but the silt keeps
coming. More concrete overlay in the future will only make this situation worse.
