Description/History
A significant storm event occurred on June 3, 2022 causing widespread flooding within the Glen Abbey Drive basin. This has resurfaced past efforts to resolve the flooding issues within the basin.

The proposed fee is inclusive of all survey needs and document preparation necessary to publicly bid the project. The anticipated timeline from start of project design to bid is ten months.
The requested funds are for analysis and design services with Halff Associates, Inc. in the amount of $153,510 which includes an additional 5% design fee contingency for potential design scope changes and other miscellaneous services needed to prepare the project for public bidding and construction, for a total budget not to exceed $153,510.00.
