Memorandum

To:Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
From:Edward Pidermann, Town Manager
Subject:Adoption of the Stormwater Master Plan Update No. 3
Date:7/16/2019

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Town Council approve a resolution adopting the Stormwater Master Plan Update No. 3 and incorporating identified capital projects into the Town's Strategic Plan.

Background:

The Town's Stormwater Master Plan (SWMP) was originally completed in 2003 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.

On January 16, 2018, the Town Council passed Resolution No. 18-1508 approving a work order agreement between Kimley-Horn and Associates (“KHA”) and the Town for the Stormwater Master Plan Update No. 3. The master plan update was completed in May 2019 and Town staff presented a brief summary of the master plan initiative and recommends to the Town Council in a workshop on May 21, 2019.

Town Staff is recommending approval of a resolution adopting the Stormwater Master Plan Update No. 3 and incorporating the identified capital projects into the Town's Strategic Plan for prioritization and budget programming.
