Welcome to the City of Storm Lake North Central Storm Water Project Blog
Welcome to the City of Storm Lake's project blog for the North Central Storm Water Project. We are pleased to provide you with this resource of project updates and details as we move forward with a key project in providing quality of life benefits to our residents and property owners. We encourage you to check back often to receive project updates as the project moves forward. You can also learn when a new project blog entry is made by following the City of Storm Lake on Facebook or following us on Twitter (@Storm_Lake).
The project is currently in the design phase with a goal of being ready for the bid process sometime in late spring early summer 2014. City staff along with project engineers are also working with property owners in the neighborhood of the project to obtain the necessary easement and land acquisitions that will be needed to complete the project. Formal land acquisition can not occur until the State of Iowa has done a historical review and approved the project from a perspective of damaging historical and cultural assets, this is underway currently and we hope that this will be completed by April 1, 2014.

Thanks for the maps Justin. Are there any plans to connect the backside of the property at 1028 Oneida St to this project? When it rains hard there can be 3 feet or more of water back there that the residence of that area have been dealing with for years. From the maps it does not appear to be part of the project and I would like some clarification to that.
ReplyDeleteMichael - thanks for the question and for reading our blog on the project. The area you are talking about is located just south of where the abandon railroad right-of-way went across East 10th Street. The bottom part of the condos there and some of the adjacent yards were built in a low ditch type area. We are attempting to address issues in this area but they are a bit challenging at this point.
ReplyDeleteWe are still in the design process and our engineers are working on this at this time. I'll do a blog update with some graphics and a more detailed description in the next few days.
Hope that helps and thanks again for your reading and use of the blog!
Hi Justin, have you had any new details on this project yet?
ReplyDeleteWe are still working on this issue and as late as Friday of last week were looking at the options available. I think we are getting somewhere but I can't confirm anything at this time. I will post something once we have a final determination. Thanks for following up and my apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
