A request to the city along with recent photos showing three intersections where flooding occurs on a regularly basis after light rain showers, two along NE 56th Street at NE 21st Drive and NE 22nd Avenue Street and a third intersection at NE 56th Court and NE 22nd Avenue. These intersections are low elevation areas where rainwater flows to and accumulates causing flooding problems at these intersections for both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The city responded and verified these locations having already been identified for Capital Improvement projects and approved budget and have been issued the following project numbers and amounts allocated in the proposed Fiscal Year 2025 CIP Budget:
  • Project #FY202110994 - NE 56th Street & 22nd Avenue - Allocated $783,730 in FY 2025
