The City of Apple Valley will be completing a feasibility study to analyze stormwater improvement options surrounding pond KL-P2 (Whitney Pond) located within Keller Park. Stormwater improvements will help improve water quality and will be necessary to provide required, permit mandated stormwater management for upcoming street reconstruction projects in the surrounding neighborhood.. The City received a $40,000 grant through the Watershed Based Implementation Fund, a derivative of the Clean Water Land and Legacy Amendment. The city will keep the public informed prior to any future pond improvements occurring.
To date, the City has hosted two open houses:
- August 17th to present 2 concepts and introduce the projects.
- September 27th to review an updated concept based on public feedback obtained during open comment period.
Included below is a copy of the City’s presentation slides from the September 27th public meeting. This includes copies of initial concepts, response to comments, a review of Lac Lavon lake levels, the preferred draft concept, and a working project schedule. A copy of the preferred Concept 3 is also included below.
