your storm water fees at work
December 2013
Dear Resident,
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services continues
to work through the planning phase of the Hill Street
Storm Drainage Improvement Project. The existing
conditions and design standards analyses have been
completed, and City staff and its consultant are now
working to analyze and evaluate several alternatives
to determine a preferred option for design. A public
meeting will be scheduled to present the preferred
option and solicit input from residents. Meeting details
will be mailed to residents approximately two weeks
prior to the meeting.
For more information about this project, visit our
website: http://stormwater.charmeck.org. Click on
the Storm Water Projects drop down menu in the
green bar, then Active Projects and Hill Street.
If you have any questions, please contact Project
Manager Danee McGee at 704-336-4102 or
dmcgee@charlottenc.gov.
