[edit] General Description
Please help improve this project page by replacing this text with a description and other factual information about the project. Don't know much about the project? Call your local government and ask for details. Our flood control system is woefully underfunded. The City's regular budget only provides funds for operation of the Flood Control Facility at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. All other work must be funded out of capital improvements. The City's Capital budget must be spent on items like leaking school roofs and so floor control never receives any funding.
