ELLICOTT CITY, MD – Howard County’s Department of Public Works (DPW) will hold a public update meeting on Thursday, March 5 at 6:00 p.m. in the Caplan Room of the Roger Carter Community Center, located at 3000 Milltowne Drive in Ellicott City, to discuss plans for a nearby storm drain improvement project.
DPW’s Bureau of Environmental Services plans to upgrade the existing storm drain system by installing a new larger storm pipe at a site near 3605-3621 Valley Road. Construction is expected to begin in spring 2020.
The informal meeting will include an overview of the design followed by an open discussion. County staff and the project’s design consultant will be on hand to answer any questions and gather public comments.
Those unable to attend the meeting who would like to view the plans and/or have questions should contact Mr. Avinash Dewani with the DPW’s Stormwater Management Division at 410-313-6417 or email adewani@howardcountymd.gov.
