Meucci Living Trust located at 15 Hildreth Street This order will authorize the City Manager to execute a storm sewer easement with the William A. Meucci Living Trust for property located at 15 Hildreth Street. If approved, the execution of storm sewer easement will allow the City to re-route storm water from Hildreth Street to Shaw Brook, which should help alleviate flooding on Outer Hammond Street near the Hermon town line. The drainage on Hildreth Street is carried by a 15-inch concrete pipe to the Hammond Street storm sewer, which is 15-inch polyethylene pipe. There have been numerous times when the Hammond Street storm sewer has been overwhelmed by heavy flows, which then cause flooding on Hammond Street. According to Maine DOT data, this section of Hammond Street sees an average of over 10,000 cars a day, and the flooded roadway is a hazard for road users. The proposed new 24-inch polyethylene storm drain will start near on Hildreth Street approximately 320 feet from the intersection with Hammond Street. The pipe will intercept the existing 15-inch concrete pipe, cross the property at 15 Hildreth Street, then continue on the rear of the lots at 1570 and 1606 Hammond Street before crossing the town line into Hermon, where it will continue across property of Hermon Solar LLC for approximately 56 feet where it outlets to a plunge pool. The City will access the area through the proposed easement, and will restore the property when the work has been completed.
