DESCRIPTION

In 2022 the City was successfully awarded an American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grant to help address repeated flooding events that have occurred near NE 13^th Street & NE Galloway Street within the Midtown Stormwater Basin. This project is currently in the Engineering phase and is expecting to move into the Construction phase this summer.

The ARPA Midtown Basin Stormwater Project has the primary goal of providing a solution that addresses as much of the flooding now as possible and a secondary goal to accommodate future master-planned projects. As the project has progressed in design, we have concluded that the secured funding is not enough to solve all of the flooding issues, but we have been able to identify a significant section that acts as a capacity restriction or “bottleneck” that we can focus the project on. Focusing the project on that location will provide the best result with the limited funding and work seamlessly with future projects that will be able to resolve the remaining flooding concerns.

This project consists of installing approximately 577 linear feet of 30-inch diameter stormwater infrastructure using open-cut trenching between NE Irvine Street and NE Kirby Street. These improvements have been designed to help mitigate the localized flooding experienced at the intersection of NE 13th Street and NE Galloway Street by adding capacity to the Midtown Basin stormwater conveyance system. This will not fully address flooding issues within the Midtown Basin but will decrease it by approximately 49%.
