Acceptance of the Drainage Advisory Committee's recommendation to approve expenditure of 2018 General Obligation Bond funds for construction of drainage improvements along the Indian Springs Golf Course

It is possible this could be a reason for the flooding. The downstream condition of the pipe could also be a contributing factor of the flooding in the Indian Springs neighborhood. The drainage analysis shows that approximately 18 acres, approximately 90 cfs, drains to one single inlet on Fairway Dr.

During utility coordination, ONG noted conflicts with the proposed system along Fairway Dr. Relocation of the gas line is scheduled, at the earliest, for January 2027. The improvements to the storm system in the neighborhood cannot be completed until then.
