Item 35: Drainage Calculations – The only increase in impervious is de minimis and includes the necessary concrete foundations. The Sports Lights are to be installed in typically impervious areas of the existing site and would not increase storm water runoff. Concrete bases for pathway lights would be located in existing lawn (pervious) areas but represent a de minimis increase in impervious area, and would have no impact on the existing drainage pattern or system; b.
