Stormwater Management Program’s Capital Improvement Program

Dear Mr. Lage:

The City of Overland Park wishes to pursue the addition of a project into the Stormwater Management Capital Improvement Program. The Stormwater Management Program Policy requires that the City notify the program by letter of the review of benefit points and project eligibility into the program. This letter serves such notice for the following project, “99th to 103rd Street, East of Quivira, Stormwater Improvements (MS-0691).”

Enclosed is a map of the proposed project and a preliminary score sheet that reflects the project meeting the minimum 100-point benefit rating. It is estimated that 6 residential homes flood in the 100-year design storm and that 103rd S-treet floods by more than 7 inches in the 100-year design storm. The benefit points assigned are the City’s best estimate at this time. The City is currently in the process of hiring the Larkin Group to perform a Preliminary Engineering Study on the above project and will submit the study to the program by December of this year.

Once again, the City wishes to pursue adding the above-mentioned project into the Stormwater Management Program and believes that this project meets the 100-point minimum benefit rating. It is our understanding the earliest available funding for this project will be in 2006.

We look forward to your response,

Brent Johnson, EIT
