Original Storm Water Plan

The Woodland Beach Road/Ferry Drive intersection experiences flooding from relatively small storm events. Flooding problems in the basin consist primarily of water ponding across streets, yards and homes at the intersection. The flooding problems are usually caused by inadequate storm drainage facilities in the area.

There are 11.5 acres that drain to four undersized inlets that drain into undersized pipes handling another 12 acres of drainage area. The entire Woodland Beach Development does not have even one storm inlet. The City storm water management plan at the time of the development must have been miraculous evaporation.

This would be consistent with the plan in most of the older areas of the city.
