            5.         City Manager Report

a.    The large pond continues to be expanded at our Reed Canal Stormwater Control Facility.  There is a lot of dirt that is being removed.  The more dirt that is removed, the more water storage is being created.  When completed, this will be a huge improvement to the drainage for the entire central portion of the City.

b.   The City has completed the expansion of Silver Pond ahead of the upcoming hurricane season.  This expansion will improve the drainage inside the Big Tree Village subdivision.

c.    The stormwater pump at the Jones Street stormwater pond has been replaced by the Public Works Department.  This replacement will improve the drainage of the Jones Street / Bellewood Avenue area around City Hall.

d.   A new stormwater pump station has been installed at the large stormwater pond inside Reed Canal Park.  This pump station will help control the lake level and ultimately improve the drainage of the Orchards Phase II subdivision.

e.   The Public Works Department is expanding the Duck Pond on Anastasia Drive.  The expansion of this stormwater pond will help improve the drainage of the surrounding homes.

f.     The City has replaced several stormwater pipe segments in the Calhoun Street and Yale Road area designed to improve the drainage there.

g.    The design of an additional stormwater pond to improve the drainage inside the Lantern Park subdivision has begun.  This is the first of four large-scale stormwater projects that the City will complete in a partnership with Volusia County as a part of their Transform 386 program.  The other three projects include the creation of a stormwater pond to improve the drainage inside the Sherwood Forest subdivision, the installation of sheet piling along the banks of the Stevens Canal to make it wider and more capable of conveying stormwater for the entire central portion of the City and the expansion of the stormwater pond on Aspen Drive to improve the drainage inside the Big Tree Village subdivision.

h.   Tonight, we are approving a contract for the design of the Aspen Stormwater Pond expansion project for the benefit of the Big Tree Village subdivision.

i.     The Annual Law Enforcement Memorial Service to remember and honor those officers who lost their lives in the line of duty will be held on Thursday, May 22nd at 8:30 am at Lohman’s Memorial Park.  The community is encouraged to attend.
