The City repairs, replaces and installs new storm drainage infrastructure when it deteriorates or cannot handle increases in stormwater. Investing in infrastructure protects public safety, guards private property, improves water quality and enhances quality of life. The Lyon Court Storm Drainage Improvement Project goals are to reduce flooding of streets and structures, as well as reduce stream bank erosion by improving the storm drainage infrastructure within the project area.
