storm drainage improvement project
YOUR STORM WATER FEES AT WORK
July 2015
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services and
consulting engineer HDR continue with the planning
phase. HDR has analyzed the storm drainage system
within the neighborhood to determine how well
it is working and to locate any problems and/or
concerns. HDR is now analyzing possible alternatives
to determine the best solution. The analysis takes into
account how the alternative performs in the project
area, how it will impact the downstream areas and
ability to construct the alternatives.
The goals of the project are to reduce flooding and
rehabilitate deteriorated storm drainage structures.

Waterways Need
Plant Buffers
Buffers are trees,
bushes, and deep
rooted plants along
a stream, pond, river
or lake. They reduce
property loss from
erosion, support
fish and wildlife, and
improve water quality.
If my property is eroding,
what can I do?
• Plant native bushes and trees!
• Leave grass unmowed.
• Keep herbicides away.
