Description

Private pond spillway improvements at 8451 South 9th Street
A private pond dam built without permits overtops repeatedly and sits on top of the city's main 60-inch sanitary sewer line — the pipe carrying roughly 90 percent of flow to the Lynn Lane plant. The city won't pay to build a private spillway, but may cost-share riprap to protect its manhole.
Ninth Street storm sewer improvements underway
A previously approved project to capture water crossing Ninth Street from about 17 acres near Indian Springs is moving forward — materials are being ordered and construction will be scheduled soon, which the 8451 South 9th Street homeowner says should ease his front-yard flooding.
