The Town's Stormwater Master Plan (SWMP) was originally completed in 2002 and addressed flood protection, creating a storm water utility, developing a prioritized Storm Water Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), and joining federal flood insurance programs. Updates to the original SWMP were completed in 2006 and 2012 to evaluate the progress made to date, identify and evaluate the next priority storm water projects, and modify the CIP accordingly.
The second SWMP Update is now over five (5) years old and there have been several stormwater projects completed that have enhanced and improved the Town's stormwater system. In addition, there have been changes in the construction industry that should be reviewed and incorporated into the budgets for the stormwater program. In order to address these issues and to assess additional areas of the Town for stormwater programming and priorities, it is recommended that the Town update the SWMP.
KHA has completed all prior SWMPs as well as implementing various Town capital stormwater improvement projects. KHA has extensive information and local knowledge that will be used to minimize data collection efforts and to better serve the Town.
