City Council Drainage Study Committee April 2, 2001 Page 4 this project up at this time and continue to keep it maintained. City Manager Malone advised that the Number Seven priority is where this ditch continues south of Clarksville Street and goes on down to the main channel behind Uarco and crosses under a railroad bridge and turns east. City Manager Malone further explained that this property is owned by Don Wilson of Rogers and Wade, which was the old Uarco Business Form Plant. City Manager Malone advised that the city has talked to Mr. Wilson about cleaning this ditch out, but Mr. Wilson does not want this to be done. City Manager Malone suggested leaving this project for another time. The City Manager said Project Number Eight is right next to the above ditch which is part of the channel that is east of Collegiate Drive, and as you know, the city has completed from Collegiate Drive back to the west up to 12th Street. City Manager Malone told the Committee that this is an area that has not been channelized or cleaned out, and is just north of the Super Center. Mr. Townsend said some of this drainage area may be addressed with the Sports Complex. Project Number Nine is in the area of 17th Street S. E and Cedar which drains to the south into the channel that was talked about that has been completed. City Manager Malone said that several years ago the Housing Authority constructed the housing units on Jackson Street and parts of this projects were completed, but it is probably going to need maintenance and it might be something that can be done with funds from the USDA. City Manager Malone advised that the Tenth Project is 10' Street S. E. and the estimated cost for this project is 1.3 million dollars in the Master Plan, which is a 1993 estimate. He said this would consist of concrete channels and various structures under the streets, and resizing culverts. City Manager Malone's recommendation for this project at this point in time,
