Madison Sewer Separation

Project Description

This project will remove the storm water runoff from entering the sanitary sewer system by collecting, treating and infiltrating the runoff. It is proposed to use Filterra Systems to treat the runoff prior to infiltration and install permeable sidewalks to reduce the runoff to the infiltration basin. In conjunction with this work, the City will replace an old 4" water main and reconstruct the street to eliminate the excessive crown from past overlay projects.

The City is reaching out to the residents along North Madison for their input on the preferred layout for the Madison Combined Sewer Separation Project. Staff has prepared a response method using SurveyMonkey to allow citizens to provide input. Drawings and survey access links are located below:

public outreach drawings

The City will also send out postcards to owners and place informational hangers on resident doors by March 4th. The survey will end and the above link will be removed on March 28th. You input is important to us and the effort to respond is greatly appreciated.
