Alanhurst/Cherrycrest
storm drainage improvement project

YOUR STORM WATER FEES AT WORK
Dear Resident,
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services held its first
public meeting for the Alanhurst/Cherrycrest Storm Drainage
Improvement Project on March 1, 2012 at St. Andrew’s
United Methodist Church. The project goals are to reduce
flooding of streets and structures, as well as reduce erosion
along the stream and channel (by stabilization) where
needed. The meeting provided the opportunity to present
the results of the existing conditions analysis and receive
resident input and suggested solutions.
Meeting highlights:
• Project Manager Susan Tolan welcomed the attendees,
introduced the project team and explained the history
and the purpose of the project.
• Scott Sigmon, Project Manager for the City’s design
consultant, WK Dickson, presented the results of the
existing conditions analysis.
1. Additional catch basins are needed in the streets to
address excessive spread.
2. The Alanhurst and Cherrycrest crossings are
inadequate to pass the design flows without surcharging
the system.
3. Several structures are potentially impacted by
flooding.
• A question and answer session was held.
