The design for this project includes the construction of new storm sewer on Luella Ave and along 5 side streets east of Luella Ave, including E. Lambuth Ln, E. Rutgers Ln, E. Columbia Ln, E. Dartmouth Ln and E. Princeton Ln. The project also includes a new detention pond and a new outfall into Willowspring Creek B112-00-00. The PER includes two preliminary routes for the outfall and detention pond location. The outfall route and detention pond location will be selected following the City’s determination of the feasibility in obtaining land/easements.
