It Takes a Village: Partnership in Project Design and Implementation
This presentation focuses on the stormwater engineering components involved in the implementation of a green infrastructure project developed from an existing neighborhood drainage study. The scope of this project included both hydraulic analysis and water quality considerations and will briefly examine the value engineering methods utilized within the design. Additional considerations will be explored external to the immediate work of engineering, such as coordination efforts to establish a funding source and ensure the success of the project. This presentation builds on conversations about the relationship between a community and project design considerations by demonstrating the role that partnership plays in fully engaging stakeholders in the design process.
