Apparently Mr. Welliver noticed upon returning from work one day that his property which abutts the gully area in Eastmont had suffered an erosion from the bank. As Mr. Welliver had only recently purchased the property he became quite concerned about this and had a civil engineer out to render an opinion as to the cause of the problem. The civil engineer informed Mr. Welliver that the erosion had been caused by water running over the property but was at a loss to explain where the water came from. Mr. Welliver noticed no further problems with the erosion or with water run-off in that area. On August 18, 1983 Mr. Welliver was at his home when he heard an unusual amount of noise on the street. Mr. Welliver noticed that a City of Everett Water Department truck was out in front of his home and that a hose or pipeline had been laid across his property and running out to the back of the gully. The water main was being flushed out at this point and the water was rushing over the back of his property and into the gully. At this point Mr. Welliver approached the City of Everett employee, an individual identified by a name badge on his coveralls as "Sterling". Scott expressed some dissatisfaction with those arrangements for draining the water main and during the conversation was informed that the City of Everett had been doing this for a number of years but to date there had been no problems, with the exception of the previous draining which was done with the usual care and it caused the erosion. .� r � �
