The Stormwater Mitigation Program was established in FY2011 to address flooding that impacts private property or public infrastructure. Construction projects are screened against set criteria and prioritized. The intent is to improve the capacity of stormwater conveyance in the most needful areas throughout the city, improving drainage flow, safety and potentially reducing damage to residences and businesses. A total of 60 projects were identified at the onset of this program. New projects are added throughout the year and then prioritized among existing candidate projects at the beginning of each fiscal year based on established criteria and available funds. Projects could range from deepening an existing basin, to constructing a new retention basin, to any number of smaller projects such as ditching and/or piping. Costs depend greatly upon the site conditions, such as rock, level of protection desired (75-year storm, 100-year storm), and market conditions for bids. FY2021 and FY2022 funds will begin addressing mitigation needs identified from the rain event on February 28, 2021. Staff have identified 3 locations from this event and those include sections of Oaklawn Way, Fair Street, and Crewdson Drive. Projects funded with FY2023 funds will be determined later on in the fiscal year. As of October 26, 2023, the project is included in the City's 2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Per owner, there is no information to report at this time. *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.
