Northern Columbia Golf Course stormwater improvements
The City will partner with other groups to construct a new trunk storm sewer. The City will construct stormwater basins in the northern part of the golf course.
Project overview
The Mississippi Watershed Management Organization (MWMO) will lead construction of:

This is the third project we'll put into action from the study.
The project will:
