Department: Charlotte Storm Water Services

There is an existing wetlands system and stream adjacent to the Bruns Academy that are in need of improvements. The intent of this project is to reset an existing wetlands system to its original design and provide enhancement, where applicable. Wetland restoration efforts will include regrading, sodding and planting of vegetation,  installation of a new pedestrian bridge and retaining wall.  Additionally, stream improvements, such as regrading banks and adding riffles, are proposed. The proposed improvements will enhance the overall performance of the system for conveying and treating stormwater.

The Hastings/Princeton Storm Drainage Improvement Project will reduce street and structure flooding throughout the neighborhood. Located within a drainage area of approximately 80 acres, the project will replace aging infrastructure and provide adequate system capacity. The project area is bordered by Wellesley Avenue to the north, Hastings Drive to the south, Selwyn Avenue to the east and Jamestown Drive to the west.
