| Project Description: |
| The proposed request would permit the implementation of the third phase of the Villages Stormwater Master Plan. Specifically the project includes the connection to a pump station (currently under construction, the construction of an additional overflow structure to permit discharge into the Villages secondary flood control system and other drainage improvement structures near the Village boundary with the City of Miami Springs. In additional, due to physical constraints associated with the flood control upgrades the Village will have to replace a 1450 feet segment of water main.
