Presentation Notes
Master Plan was funded by ECUA and CRA in 2003, which included a 12-phase project to address flooding, increased roadway/drainage maintenance, and septic tanks abatement. Stormwater Ponds in the Northeast Phase will provide for water quality improvements to Jones Swamp and reduce flood stages impacting properties. Roadway improvement in the Northeast Phase primarily include curb/gutter due to high water table and maintenance expense for roadside swales and driveway connection damages.
