Management of stormwater runoff has become an increasingly important responsibility for local governments. Recently enacted stormwater regulations, combined with aging drainage infrastructure, has resulted in local governments like Snellville developing and implementing more comprehensive stormwater management programs to achieve regulatory compliance and address recurring drainage problems.
Snellville’s City Council recently approved $553,000 through the Stormwater Management Program to address stormwater maintenance needs in right of ways, ditches, detention ponds and easements which are vital to stormwater management.
The Public Works Department will begin stormwater infrastructure maintenance near the following addresses: 1359-1367 Summit Chase Drive, Summit Chase at the bridge, 1963 Masthaven Court, 2275 Springdale Drive, 2311-2322 Junes Court, 2760 Holly Springs Drive and 1602 Stonegate Way.
The projects should be completed by the end of June.
