Um the there is an existing parking area um just north of the amenity center that's uh currently being constructed. This uh parking area was permitted along with the subdivision plans um and And so and right behind the parking area, there is nothing
additional proposed. As a matter of fact, there is a drainage swale and a drainage inlet that is designed to accept any runoff that might be impounded in the area as as uh the the neighbor, I believe. Expressed a concern with. And so in the area's final constructed condition, and there should be positive drainage through that swale into our master stormwater
system that should carry the runoff to our stormwater ponds internal to the development, which ultimately discharges at the far south end of the subdivision itself, which is uh farther south than the south side of the amenity center site.
