Lake Windsor Stormwater PS/Force Main: FY 10/11: $198,400 / Grant: $261,600
This project would provide a more permanent solution for the flooding in this area and is
partially funded through a Hazard Mitigation grant through FEMA. The only alternative to this
project would be to rent and maintain emergency pumps for lengthy periods of time to protect
properties from flooding at a cost of several thousand dollars per month. With the completion of
this project, we will minimize recurring flooding and reduce repetitive flood loss to properties in
the Lake Windsor, Tulsa Drive and Dorchester areas. The completed project will provide
protection against a 19-year storm event. This project should also eliminate money spent on
renting emergency pumps to control the stormwater in this area. Design of this project should be
complete in FY 09/10 and it will be ready to bid for construction. The FY 10/11 budget amount
includes construction and construction administration costs.
Leland Drainage Improvements FY 10/11: $550,000
The drainage retention area on Leland Dr. adversely affects numerous residents in the Leland
and Oslo area, during and after prolonged stormwater events. The drainage area receives water
from several inlets. Improvements are needed to handle the flow in the area. Not funding this
project would greatly decrease the level of flood protection for the residents in this area. This
project has several benefits that cause it to exceed the cost of its funding. The area currently
requires the use of emergency rental pumps to control flooding issues in this area after major
storm events. This project would help to eliminate these costs as well as provide a higher level of
protection for the area residents. Design, permitting and engineering will begin in FY09/10 and
should be almost complete at the end of the year. The FY 10/11 budget amount includes
construction and construction administration as the project should be construction ready.
Kraft/Bluefield Drainage Improvements FY 10/11: $20,000
The large drainage retention area bordering Kraft Drive and Bluefield Avenue floods and
adversely affects several properties when the drainage reaches its peak level. This project is an
engineering study for this area in order to provide a solution to this severe flooding. The study is
anticipated to be conducted in FY 10/11 with construction anticipated to be started and
completed in FY 11/12.
Lackland Retention Pond Improvements FY 10/11: $375,000
The current retention pond is in need of improvements to better handle the stormwater in this
area. Without this project, it will be necessary to continue to rent emergency pumps for this area
during and after major storm events. The rental of emergency pumps can get very costly as well
as the labor and equipment to maintain them. The benefits from this project are many. The
surrounding area would receive some much needed stormwater storage relief with the
enlargement of these ponds. Also the Tulsa retention pond would have an outfall. We would not
have to stage and use emergency portable pumps during heavy storm events. The design and
permitting of this project should be complete in FY 09/10. The FY 10/11 budget amount
includes construction and construction administration as the project should be construction
ready.
