Lincoln Heights
storm drainage improvement project
YOUR STORM WATER FEES AT WORK
Dear Resident,
February 2013
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services continues
to analyze the existing conditions of the storm drainage
system within the Lincoln Heights Storm Drainage
Improvement Project. This analysis will determine
areas of storm water issues and/or concerns. A public
meeting will be scheduled to present the storm
drainage analysis results and solicit input from project
area residents. Meeting details will be mailed to you
two weeks prior to the meeting.
The goals of this project are to improve the storm
drainage infrastructure and to reduce flooding of
streets and structures in your neighborhood. The
project area boundaries are Interstate 85 to the north,
Interstate 77 to the east, La Salle Street to the south,
and Beatties Ford Road to the west.
For more information about this project, please visit
our website at http://stormwater.charmeck.org and
click on Storm Water Projects drop down menu in the
green bar, then Active Projects and Lincoln Heights.
If you have any questions, please contact Project
Manager Steven McCraney at 704-432-0967 or
smccraney@charlottenc.gov.
It is that time of year when a chill fills
the air and snow begins to fall.
Sometimes, instead of snow, we get ICE. Next
time the weather turns bad and your sidewalk is
slick, spread sand to get a grip on that
slippery walk.
If bad weather strikes the area
causing limbs and brush to
fall, residents are encouraged
to prepare debris to normal
collection guidelines (limbs no
longer than 5 feet in length
and no wider than 4 inches in
diameter). The storm debris
should be taken to curbside. Do
not place debris in storm drains,
gutters or on creek banks.
