That’s the additional info I was looking for, thanks Jon! Would it be possible for you to submit a
cross-section that demonstrates what you’ve noted below in relation to the centerline of the
adjacent highway? thx

Sonya,
Adding height to the berm would add to the overall depth of an already deep gravity irrigation line,
which is an important item to consider if, and when work is needed on the gravity irrigation
facilities. However, the more significant issue is how low the building lots already sit below the
height of the berm and Chinden given the existing site conditions. This part of Bainbridge has
always sat low compared to Chinden.
We’ve built up the landscape buffer as much as possible, and have added a retaining wall the entire
distance of Chinden. The rear of the finished lots sit 5 feet on the west and 9 feet on the east below
the height of the berm. We have already installed a retaining wall on the lot side of the easement
that is between 4 and 8 feet tall to be able to accommodate the berm and provide the lateral
integrity for the gravity irrigation facilities. Adding height to the berm isn’t feasible given the already
substantial grade difference as demonstrated with the lot-side retaining wall, the additional height
that would be required on the current retaining wall, and the already established lot depth.

So, the irrigation district will allow a 4’ tall berm but not a 10’ tall berm? Or will they allow any
height berm and a wood fence?
