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 />

Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection<br />

ordinances.<br />
