This project, which focuses on the Johnson Creek Tributary 9 Watershed, began because severe flooding of streets, homes and businesses had been reported to the City and identified through the previous Johnson Creek Watershed Study.
Proposed improvements to alleviate flooding consist of increasing storm drain and natural channel capacity between N. East Street and the AT&T Stadium Parking Lot 11, and increasing storm drain capacity at the Cedar Street and Elm Street intersection as well as the Cedar Street and Mesquite Street intersection.
The Johnson Creek Tributary 9 Planning effort is being conducted by Halff Associates, a consultant for the City. The engineering services contract was approved by council on March 25, 2025.
The project is currently at the 30% design phase and the final design is set to be completed later this year. Acquisition of property is scheduled to begin in 2026 and construction is scheduled to begin in 2027.
A public meeting to learn more about this project was held on December 8, 2021.
Recordings of the information presented are available below.
