Project Description

The Four Square Mile Outfall Systems Plan will look at how water flows through the study area to understand current drainage and flooding issues. The team will review the existing drainage system infrastructure conditions and complete hydrologic and hydraulic models to identify areas of concern for flooding risk. Based on the flooding problems, the team will create packages of stormwater improvements to address these problems. The proposed improvements will be based on model data and input from project stakeholders and the community. There is not currently funding for construction, but identifying the proposed projects is a key next step in identifying how much funding will be needed.

This high‑level planning effort does not affect current or future water rates or fees.
