Dear Resident, January 9, zois
You are receiving this letter because you own a property on 17th St. between Elm St. and Heeb St.
This area will be under construction starting in the spring of 2018. Please read the information
below to learn how this infrastructure improvement project will impact you.
About The Project
The 17th St./W. Locust St. storm sewer capacity improvement project is one phase of the
Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project. The purpose of the project is to increase
the capacity of the storm sewer from the Lower Bee Branch Creek up 17th St. to W.
Locust St. and continuing up W. Locust St. toward Kirkwood Street. A larger storm sewer
and additional high-capacity storm drains will help alleviate the flash flooding frequently - - •
experienced on these streets. The estimated completion of the entire project is 2021.
Project Details
The first phase of the project impacted the intersection of 17th St. and Elm St. which was under construction
from August to December 2017. Crews built a new 12 ft. x 7 ft. concrete box culvert, relocated underground
utilities, and installed high-capacity storm drains.
The second phase of the project will impact 17th St. from Elm St. to Heeb Street. See map below.
Construction is expected to begin in April or May 2018 and is estimated to finish in late 2018 or early 2019.
Crews will continue the work they did in phase one constructing the larger concrete box culvert, relocating
underground utilities, and installing high-capacity storm drains. The project will also include total street and
sidewalk reconstruction.
Additional phases of the project, induding project limits and schedueles, have not yet been determined.

Dear Resident, January 9, 2018
You are receiving this letter because you own a property on 22nd St. between Elm St. and Central
Ave. This area will be under construction starting in the spring of 2018. Please read the information
below to learn how this infrastructure improvement project will impact you.
About The Project
The 22nd St./Kaufmann Ave. storm sewer capacity improvement project is one phase of the
Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project, a multi-faceted approach to addressing the
severe and frequent flash flash flooding experienced in the watershed. The Bee Branch Creek
Greenway was finished in July 2017. The restored creek and floodplain channels storm water
safely out of the neighborhood during rain events. Now that the creek is finished and there ' '•
is additional capacity for storm water downstream, improvements can safely be made to the
storm sewer system upstream.
Why Is The Project Needed?
As it runs down Kaufmann Ave., storm water can form what resembles a river on 22nd St. from Central Ave. to
Elm Street. Installing a larger storm sewer and additional high-capacity storm drains will help alleviate the flash
flooding frequently experienced on the street. Currently, the storm sewer is not large enough to handle even a
moderate rain event.
Project Details
A new concrete box culvert will be installed along 22nd St. from Elm St. to Central Ave. continuing up Kaufmann
Ave. to Kane Street. High-capacity storm drains will be placed in the grass terrace along Kaufmann Ave. to
capture overland drainage and several standard single-grate storm drains will be installed. The project requires
total street and sidewalk reconstruction and the relocation of underground utilities along the entire length of the
project. Construction will be completed in phases starting at Elm St. in the spring of 2018.
