The City of Waukesha completed a Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) in 2014. The Plan concentrated on 10 areas throughout the City that had been identified as areas of known flooding. The analysis developed a program of storm water system improvements consisting of 24 prioritized projects, with an estimated cost in excess of $41,000,000. The program was adopted by the Common Council on 11/18/2014. Several factors determined the project priority, but primarily the schedule has been developed to correspond with road reconstruction projects. 2024 - Construction Planned for Area 7 - North High School ditch grading; 2025-2028 - There are several "High Priority" projects that will continue to move forward but are always subject to change. Areas currently planned for additional planning and design include: Additional Phases for Area 7 - North High School/Greenmeadow Dr., Area 4 - Harding Ave, Area 10 - Merrill Crest Park Area, Area 8 - S Grand Ave from Debbie Dr to Rivera Dr Cost estimates include engineering services for additional analysis, design and refined cost estimates. This project is included in the city’s fy 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program. As of March 21, 2024, further details regarding design and construction timelines have not been identified. *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.
