Swales convey water to the canals and are also part of Indian Trail’s stormwater storage capacity.
Swales take several days to weeks to drain.
Groundwater also migrates into the swales which adds to the time it takes for the swales to completely drain.
Don’t fill in the swale with dirt or block driveway culverts.
No chlorinated pool, water system, or other non-drainage water allowed.
Driveways – Please contact Indian Trail to obtain driveway specifications and permit prior to installing a driveway.
No obstructions allowed (landscaping, trees, fences, ornamental structures, etc.) Only permitted driveways, sod, and mailboxes are allowed in the swale easements.
Canals
No irrigation pipes allowed.
No trespassing (vehicle, ATV, foot traffic).
Gates – Homeowner gates are encouraged on canal banks to prevent trespassing. Please contact Indian Trail to obtain gate specifications and gate permit prior to installing gate.
Parked cars, debris piles, and other obstructions - Please keep canal easements cleared so the mowers can properly maintain the area.
Roads
Indian Trail has 5 graders throughout Indian Trail grading roads at all times. Depending on weather conditions, it takes 2 weeks to grade every road in Indian trail.
Parked cars, trash/recycle containers, and debris piles - Please keep roads clear so the graders can properly maintain Indian Trail roadways.
