Site work for a water / sewer project in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

As of August 23, 2024, it is expected that design work will take place in 2025 and construction will begin in 2026. Regional stormwater study, design, and construction for the area including TID #9 boundary area near Lacy/Seminole and south of boundaries (Obrien's) . Per North Stoner Prairie Neighborhood Plan (Appendix H, Conceptual Stormwater Management Plan), part of TID 9 north of Lacy has the potential to discharge to Obrien farm to the southwest of Lacy/Seminole, which is part of an enclosed depression. In addition to TID 9, there is a large drainage area (both urbanized and rural) feeding into to this enclosed depression. There is no natural outlet to this area. 2021-2030 CIP Update: Delay construction of drainage infrastructure from 2022 to 2025. Change TID funding from cash to borrowing. 2020 - Perform a comprehensive drainage study of the area, with potential recommendations for pumping plans if needed, identification of potential drainage infrastructure, identification of retention areas, identification of low impact development techniques or recommended stormwater ordinance changes, or recommended conditions on development. TID #9 Amendment #2 includes 75% funding ($225,000 of $300,000 total). Remaining 25% to be paid through stormwater utility. 2025 (delayed from 2022) - Following a drainage study of the area, construct recommended drainage infrastructure. Infrastructure could be potentially upstream of enclosed depression, within enclosed depression, or downstream. TID #9 Amendment #2 includes 75% funding ($2,393,000 of $3,190,100 total). Remaining 25% to be paid through stormwater utility. 2021-2030 CIP Council Amendment: Accelerate from 2025 to 2022/2023 2022-2031 CIP Update: Costs updated based on the results of the Feasibility Study completed in 2021 (available online here: http://www.fitchburgwi.gov/2679/Sub-Zero-Stoner-PrairieStormwater-Study). Project costs decreased from $3,190,100 to $1,703,900. Costs include Alternate A2 (A New Infiltration Basin Outside of the Sub-Zero Kettle) and Alternate B1 (Fixed Pumping Station). It is recommended that we put Alternate C2 (Low Flow Gravity Pipe - Kettle South of Lacy Road to the Sub Zero Kettle) on hold indefinitely. The kettle south of Lacy has not failed (meaning that it still infiltrates). If it fails in the future, Alternate C2 would be recommended at that time. In addition, the TIF-SW Utility split was updated based on the area served by Alternate A2 and B1, which is 94% within the TID boundary and 6% outside of that boundary. Project delayed from 2022/2023 to 2024/2025. 2022-203 As of January 23, 2024, this project is included in the City of Fitchburg's FY 2024 2033 CIP and funding is allotted for construction in 2026. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
