6.   List what was accomplished during the previous year:
- NE 20th Avenue Drainage Improvements Project - Completed
The purpose of this project was to mitigate localized flooding within an existing residential neighborhood of 13 acres by decreasing the extent of inundated area water ponding duration during rainfall events. Swales were implemented in most of the ROW pervious areas and approximately one mile of exfiltration trenches with 21 drainage structures in critical flooding areas. The project reduced nutrient loads to the environment and local waterways. In addition to the expected increase of resident’s satisfaction and well-being; the community is no longer exposed to flooding repercussions.
- Harbor Estates (North & South Roads) Neighborhood Improvement Project - Completed
The Harbor Estates Neighborhood experienced periodic roadway flooding and standing water during heavy rainfall events, which affected the residential property owners located in the vicinity of North and South Roads. To improve the quality and reliability of the Harbor Estates Neighborhood Utilities, the City of Boynton Beach provided a new stormwater system that collects the stormwater and discharges through four (4) shallow outfalls located along the north edge of North Road and one (1) shallow outfall at the southeast corner of the neighborhood. The project also included replacing aging and undersized water mains and upgrading fire hydrants in the project area.Â
- Central Seacrest Corridor Neighborhood Utility Improvements – Phase II under construction
The goal of the project is to replace aging and undersized water mains and improve drainage within the right of way. For the drainage portion swales are implemented in most of the ROW pervious areas and exfiltration trenches with drainage structures in critical flooding areas. The project is a continuation of the work that was completed during Phase I.Â
