Assess Drainage Needs and Plan

What happens here

The video highlights the initial challenge: a drainage easement that prevents simply tapering the soil to manage stormwater. This easement is designed to carry stormwater drainage from several houses. The project's first step is to assess these specific site conditions and regulatory requirements to understand why a French drain is necessary and how it must be designed to integrate with the existing storm drain system without impeding the flow from other properties.

Goal: Understand the drainage problem and design a solution appropriate for the easement
