Latest Update 

The City has released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the design work associated with the proposed detention basins and after proposals are received a design consultant will be selected in April. As the planning and design process progresses another Public Information Meeting will be hosted. Please see below for additional information about the public involvement process. Updates will also be shared regularly on this webpage.

Project Overview

The Stormwater Utility is proposing a project to construct a series of regional detention basins north of Mid Town Road, and east of Meadow Road. The purpose of the ponds will be to contain flood water, reducing downstream flooding and minimizing local flood impacts.

As part of the project City Engineering is proposing to extend Feather Edge Road from the existing terminus to Meadow Road. The City Parks Division will also be discussing a future master planning effort for the proposed Hill Creek Park expansion.
