Hinsdale/Tinkerbell s t o r m d r a i n a g e i m p r o v e m e n t p r o j e c t your storm water fees at work Dear Resident: Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services and Armstrong Glen (AG) continue to work through the planning phase of the Hinsdale/Tinkerbell Storm Drainage Improvement Project. AG is preparing the alternatives analysis report. Once complete, City staff can compare the different alternatives to address the stormwater drainage issues in the neighborhood. A public meeting will then be scheduled to present the recommended alternative and solicit comments from the residents. Meeting details will be mailed two weeks before the meeting. The project goals are to update the existing infrastructure, reduce the flooding in structures and streets, increase channel capacity and reduce erosion.

August 2013 Engineering & Property Management Storm Water Services Division 600 East Fourth Street Charlotte, North Carolina 28202 Don’t wash your car on your driveway or in the street. Soap suds flow to the nearest storm drain, then directly into the nearest creek. That could kill fish and other aquatic life. Instead, park your car on your lawn to wash it. Or, better yet, take your car to a professional car wash where the water is cleaned. You’ll have a clean car and all of us will have clean streams. For more information visit stormwater.charmeck.org
