Minutes of the Special Meeting of Council <br />Monday, May 7, 2012 <br />Page 4 <br />Council President Buckholtz tlia.nked Ms. Lynch, <br />Council President Buckholtz asked if there were any other public comment. <br />Kerri Setlock <br />6818 Bonnieview <br />I live right by Ms. Lynch. 1n our backyard, we have been having issues as well. We have a retention <br />basin kind of from the condos. There's standing water back there. You can't even sit in our <br />backyard. There's snakes, there's all kinds of critters back there which I understand comes with the <br />area we live in. <br />What's happening with the retention basin in my backyard is the edge of the creek that's in our <br />backyard, the road, there's trees laying against other trees now. They built up the neighbor's yard <br />with stone and rock so there are no flooding issues in his backyard and never did anything to our <br />backyard. We can't even go back there. <br />Mayor Rinker asked, who's they? Do you know they are, who did tha.t? <br />Ms. Setlock replied, whoever the development company was. I have pictures of our backyazd. I <br />have small children. I can't even let them go back there and play on the swingset because I am afraid <br />of a tree falling on them. I don't know where to go with it. I don't know who to contact or how to <br />get help with it. As much money as we put in to fixing it, it just gets washed away. I have so much <br />debris and garbage in my backyard that I can't let my kids go back there. My daughter was just in <br />the hospital getting stitches because she cut her hand on a glass bottle. There's rebar sticking out. <br />It's just awful. <br />Mayor Rinker asked, on your property? Or this is wha.t is washed downstream? <br />Ms. Setlock replied. This is on my properry. Her cutting her hand happened because of it. <br />Mayor Rinker asked, you said the rebar and all those things are getting washed down on to your <br />property? Ms. Setlock replied, yes. And the rebar is sticking out of the crick. I brought pictures. <br /> <br />Mayor Rinker replied, two things. One, we will get our law department to follow up with the <br />adjacent properiy owner. In the short term, Mrs. Cinco chairs the infrastructure committee and so get <br />with Mary Beth and follow up. From that standpoint, the Village tries to assist. <br />Mrs. Cinco confirmed, they are on the agenda. <br />Ms. Setlock replied, I called about two weeks and spoke. I sent e-mails to everyone. <br />Mayor Rinker asked, there's a meeting coming up?
