Mark MalloLA c0 aoa(v counCN\ me -c6 I'll) THE CITYHALL OF EDGEWATER Feb. 2026 Mark Mallo, 639 Coral Trace blvd. a 222 home gated subdivision Lived here 16 years. A Reservoir's main objective: Is to control the amount of water to prevent flooding. We can do this by Modifying our Reservoir that's already in place. These Blue Prints I drawn up are Pertaining to the Coral Trace Reservoir on the large Pond in the community of Coral Trace. The city could not find diagrams, plans or prints on this reservoir. So I went on location and took measurements, then drafted out the findings. Our other two ponds, along with the streets of Coral Trace flow into this approximately 10 acre pond, which then flows under East Coral Trace Blvd. towards Mission Rd. In the wall of this Reservoir, otherwise called (The cement Block.) There are two 6 inch Dia. holes that control the constant outflow of water from all the ponds. In Continuous rain, the water table rises past these two outlets, and then over the block wall that flows 3 blocks to Mission Road. Which we know, floods terribly when rain, New Housing and runoff mix. My Idea,? Is to control this water level by Cutting and lifting the wall using an Actuator. This will give us control before a massive storm hits by opening the reservoir to let millions of gallons out BEFORE the storm. The pond would become approx. 35% empty before it even starts filling up. THAT would greatly help Mission road along with Coral Trace. I am not at all a Mechanical Engineer on Reservoirs. Just an idea the city should consider. These diagrams show modifications where it can be cut and Actuator installed. (Hydraulic or manual) Which is the driving force to lift the wall to let an even flow of water down the water ways before a BIG Storm hits. This will dissipate before the BIG storm arrives. At this point, approximately 5 million gallons from the streets would flow into the contained pond before breaking the levy. Oct. 2022, The pond was FULL. A Hurricane was on the way, along with Flood warnings. The pond overflowed 4-5 ft. above the levy. Flooding 30 foot up to our back door and the street to the garage. The street was a river. This is something that IS Needed. Building more subdivisions adds to more stormwater. So Asking Deering Park to cover the cost, would benefit them. Since they have 2000 homes being built right above us, and 18000 more on its way. We have pushed the limit. Thank you, Any questions? Mark J.
