Project Description:<br />
The Stevenson Creek <strong>Water</strong>shed Master Plan was developed through a cooperative agreement between the City of Clearwater<br />
and SWFWMD in 2001. One of the recommended improvements for the watershed was the Woodlawn Terrace Storm Sewer<br />
Replacement (Project 1D) which involves upsizing approximately 1,300 linear feet of 24-inch storm sewer to 42-inch storm sewer.<br />
The downstream impacts will be mitigated by the construction of a downstream attenuation and water quality feature called the<br />
Woodlawn Terrace Floodplain Storage project. The project was estimated to eliminate four structural floodplain level of service<br />
deficiencies, eliminate road flooding for the 25 year event, reduce street flooding for the 100 year event by 2 feet and remove about<br />
3000 pounds of suspended solids along 90 pounds of nitrogen annually.<br />
The City has a project called Idlewild/The Mall Sanitary Sewer Improvements at the same location that the Woodlawn Stormwater<br />
Improvements Project is proposed. The City is upgrading the Storm System concurrently with the Sanitary Sewer project. These<br />
projects are at 60% design and are under review at the WMD. In order to upsize the pipes from 24-inches to 42-inches, storage is<br />
needed to prevent downstream flooding. This portion of the project is at the 30% design phase.<br />
The design of the projects and improvements in the Idlewild/The Mall area will be funded by the City. The City is only requesting<br />
money for the construction phase of the Woodlawn Terrace Floodplain Storage feature.<br />
The City of Clearwater is estimating the construction of the floodplain storage feature will cost $700,00 and is requesting that the<br />
WMD provide $350,000 from its fiscal year FY 2014 budget for the Woodlawn Terrace Floodplain Storage project.<br />
