City Council Drainage Study Committee April 2, 2001 Page 6 Number Nine will need some maintenance, but part of that project has been completed. City Manager Malone said the Tenth Project is the one that is untouched. The City Manager said the Eleventh Project is an area that is totally in need of attention. He said one of the solutions that could work is to clean the ditches out and establish grass, so that is something that could be accomplished. The Committee discussed the IOt' Street Project with the City Manager and discussed the safety hazard of flooding in that area. Mr. Townsend discussed some of the small drainage projects that they have started and presented pictures of those projects before and after they were completed. Mr. Townsend advised the Committee that he has quotes for several small drainage projects that the NRCS will be dealing with and several of the small projects that the USDA is also looking at some of those issues and will be helping clean them up. Mr. Townsend continued to discuss the drainage problems that have been identified and the solutions in solving those problems. City Manager Malone suggested that he make recommendations from the Committee to the City Council for projects that have been identified tonight that have not already been made. City Manager said the last time the Committee met they covered the NRCS projects, a pilot channel in the area of the Guest property, the Margraves pilot channel south of that, along with identifying an easement through that addition, along with projects that citizens have reported. He felt that city staff is working on everything that can be worked on at this time. The City Manager said the Committee might want to make a decision regarding the 10t' Street Project, they might want to reconvene the Committee to receive another report and give a recommendation to the City Council if there is any need. He said that might come up with the 24t'' Street Project for discussion.
