CIP Project Map |
Stormwater capital improvement projects (CIP) are necessary to alleviate
problems caused by existing development, as well as to prevent future
problems that could result from planned development. In the Public Works
Department's Natural Resources Division, typical capital improvements
are aimed at constructing natural (streams and wetlands) or built (pipes
and pond) elements to convey, detain, and treat stormwater runoff from
developed properties without causing erosion of streams or degradation
of water quality that would be harmful to fish and wildlife.
This program develops a "master list" of needed projects including
both funded and unfunded projects. The costs, staff time and other
resource needs associated with identified projects far exceed the amount
of funding and resources available. Only projects that provide a public
benefit or are a public responsibility are included. This program does
not include projects that are routine maintenance, or private
responsibility. The projects listed are intended to meet the goals of
the Stormwater Utility, the Natural Resources Division, the Public Works
Department and the City of Redmond.
- Habitat projects address the needs of the natural systems within
the City. Project types include stream stabilization and
enhancement, habitat rehabilitation, fish passage improvement, and
buffer enhancement.
- Stormwater projects address the man-made elements including
conveyance, flooding, stormwater quality treatment, and stormwater
flow control. Stormwater quality treatment is aimed at protecting
surface water (streams, the river and the lake) and groundwater (the
City's drinking water resource).
- Neighborhood projects are small localized projects that impact
residential customers, cost is less than $40,000, and are the result
of inadequate stormwater collection or conveyance systems.
- Regional Facility projects address water quality treatment and
detention facilities, and large conveyance systems, strategically
located within the watershed to accommodate public and private
developments upstream in a comprehensive and coordinated approach.
These projects are substantially funded by new development through
the City's Regional Facilities Program.
The overall CIP document is updated periodically in preparation for the
next budget cycle. During each biennial budget cycle Council selects
projects which should be included in the next two-year budget and which
projects should be included on the six-year CIP list. The CIP is a planning
tool that is subject to revision as new projects are identified or existing
problems change in severity or extent. Below are excerpts from the current
CIP document.

6-Year CIP |
|
The 6-year CIP identifies the projects
that are expected to be built in the next six years. The first two
years of the list are funded through the current budget. |

| Project Rankings |
|
Projects are rated within
their category based on severity and extent. Projects are sometimes
built out of rank order due to budget constraints or partnership
opportunities. (See Below) |
