Here we are today…
(Weber Pond can’t store
enough of the flood water)
Infrastructure
Option 2b* (~$4.5M)
…or we could move
water around and
store it differently…
25% Less Impervious
…if we could reduce
imperviousness everywhere…
(very little flood reduction benefit)
Infrastructure
Option 7b** (~$8.5M)
…we could do a really
big infrastructure
project…
Morningside Neighborhood:
Weber Pond Subwatershed ‐
Climate, Imperviousness, and
Infrastructure Impacts
Past
When the climate
produced less rainfall…
**looks very similar to the
past condition
Weber Pond Equivalent
(enough stormwater storage
to prevent impacts)
*increases impacts to Weber Pond (requiring flood
walls) but decreases upstream flooding
increases in precipitation
over time keep changing
the target – should we be
designing for future
climate conditions?
