BACKGROUND:
HDR Engineering, Inc., will develop a comprehensive drainage improvement plan addressing flooding issues in several project areas within the Woodlands Subdivision and surrounding properties along Sunnehanna Drive, Westchester Drive, Quail Hollow Boulevard, Quail Hollow Court, Scenic Hills Drive, Thunderbird Drive and Scenic Hills Golf Course fairways 15, 16 and 17. This subdivision has multifamily dwellings, single family residences, and commercial properties bordering the area. Several storm events have impacted the area resulting in flooding. Maintenance items have had little effect on reducing the negative impacts of reoccurring floods. HDR will study the Scenic Hills Drainage Basin and design for storm water improvements for the project area. The study phase will include preliminary survey, data collection and public involvement to determine the extent of stormwater improvements needed. The design phase will include design of construction documents, permitting, bidding, and other services.
