A. Gateway Triangle and Bayshore Stormwater System Overview
Mr. Wiley presented a PowerPoint overview of the system and how it works.
CRA has 2 major areas that do not drain the same direction: Triangle and
Bayshore Drive.
Water really struggles to drain out of the very tip of the Triangle, also known as
“Mini Triangle.”
A future problem to resolve will be intercepting the water while it’s on
Bayshore
Drive before it makes its way to Becca Avenue.
Sabal Shores ground elevation is very low at 3-5 feet.
B. Stormwater Priority Projects
2
1. Sabal Shores Area – Coco Avenue, Basin Street, Areca Avenue, Canal Street and Captains
Cove
Ms. Mosca reported the stormwater section currently has a design project moving
forward to coincide with the fire suppression project. The CRA staff is moving forward
and looking to combine the two projects to address the stormwater, as well as the
upgrades to the water main. Survey crews are currently out in the area and it is the
hope to go ahead with one big package, so the neighborhood is only disrupted once.
2. Holly Avenue
Holly Avenue is very flat and does not have any swales; it needs new piping system.
3. Pine Tree Drive, Andrews Avenue and Woodside Avenue
Mr. Wiley does not recommend putting in swale driveways despite the new single-
family scattered lot developments going in.
C. Next Meeting Date
January 24, 2020 and monthly thereafter
IV. Adjournment
There being no further comment or business to attend to, Ms.Mosca adjourned the meeting at 4:18 p.m.
