Kenilworth/Romany
storm drainage improvement project
September 2011
YOUR STORM WATER FEES AT WORK
Dear Resident,
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services and
engineering consultant, Armstrong Glen, P.C., are in
the early planning stages of the Kenilworth/Romany
Storm Drainage Improvement Project. The project
boundaries are East Boulevard to the southwest, Euclid
Avenue to the northwest, Berkeley Avenue and East
Morehead Street to the northeast, and Upper Little
Sugar Creek to the southeast. The project goal is to
reduce street and structure flooding by improving
storm drainage infrastructure.
The consultant has completed the field survey and
has begun working on the existing conditions analysis.
The consultant will use your questionnaire responses
to identify storm drainage issues. Once complete, we
will hold a public meeting in the winter to present the
results of the analysis and to receive your input.

Are you prepared for a flood?
Anywhere it rains, it can flood. And floods are Charlotte-Mecklenburg's most common
and costly natural disaster.
In Charlotte-Mecklenburg, flood risks are especially high in the summer and early fall.
Thunderstorms, tropical storms and hurricanes can cause heavy rain and flash flooding.
During a Flood:
•
Pay attention to flood watches and warnings.
•
Turn around, don’t drown! Don’t walk or drive through floodwater.
80% of flood deaths happen in vehicles.
•
Be prepared to move to higher ground.
