In response to the April 2017 flooding event, the City of Fayetteville developed the 2018 Drainage Improvement Plan to prioritize funding.
The focus was to alleviate flooding within the amount of funding that was available and to begin the design process for multiple projects to be considered as additional funding becomes available. The 2019 bond issue, passed by voters in April, allocated up to $15,840,000 toward the implementation of this plan.
