Problems Along the Way Jeremiah Millner, 34, of Herriman, died in an industrial accident March 24, 2011, at the construction site of the Central Weber Sewer Facility. He fell 50 to 60 feet from a scaffolding system, for an unknown reason. Wayne Clasen and Heather Champman attended the City Council Meeting on February 17, 2011, and reported a drainage problem at their address of 2512 West 200 South. A 17" pipe above his property has never drained properly. It ran into a slough in years past, but now runs on his property and floods his basement. The council requested further investigation. Mr. Clasen, met again with the City Council on March 17, 2011, concerning the drainage problems on his property. The discussion was to determine whether the problems are public or private. He was having flooding problems in the basement of his home. He presented pictures and maps showing pipes that he feels are clogged, and open ditches with excessive water run off from irrigation, and ditch flows being changed over time which are not draining properly, causing flooding. He is asking for some help to alleviate the problem. A slough behind his house is higher than the drain at the house which causes water to back up. At one time, he ran a 5 1/2 HP gas pump rated at 8,000 gallons an hour, all day and night. He would like the slough piped to the canal. Mr. Trent Meyerhoffer, Chris Brienholdt, City Engineer, and Brent Slater, engineer from Jones & Associates, went to the property several times in the past year. Mr. Brienholdt explained that the slough in back of Mr. Clasen's property has stagnant water sitting in it. If flooding was coming from the slough, ditches would show a flow of moving water, and he feels that the problem is ground water. Mr. Clasen does not think it is ground water, but irrigation water. He would like the city to clean the ditches and get the water flowing again. Mr. Meyerhoffer stated the city does not own any of the drains. President Dennis Ilium said the city is not responsible for irrigation problems. Councilman Kim Slater said the slough water level mimics the level of the ground water. 16
