Flood Relief - North Hyde Park/Spanishtown Creek

Project ID: 08-05
Fiscal Year: 2008
Project Address: 1650 W Kennedy Blvd, 33606


Estimated Project Cost
$2,200,000

Description
This location suffers from widespread street and property flooding. After this preliminary engineering phase, design and phased construction will occur. Possible solutions include neighborhood stormwater detention on City-purchased sites and connection to an under-utilized stormwater outfall at Cypress Street and North Boulevard. The existing stormwater system for this basin dates back to 1925 and portions are in seriously deteriorated condition. There is structural flooding on the north side of Kennedy Boulevard near Rome Avenue, which needs to be addressed. Undrained areas to the north and west, which will be able to be positively drained once improvements are made to the downstream sections, will also be addressed.
