ORl\fl SECTION V - CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the results presented in the previous sections, the major conclusions and recommendations are summarized in this section. They are grouped into four categories: prioritized drainage improvements, easements, detention and water qual i ty. This information is intended to help direct the Town in implementing projects to improve existing drainage and water quality conditions and to provide general guidelines to assist the Town in establishing specific drainage requirements for future developments. PRIORITIZED IMPROVEMENTS Ten drainage improvements are listed below in order of priority. These improvements were selected on the amount of damage they would prevent and that they provide general benefit to the Town and its citizens. Improvements that are in the MPA but outside the Town's Corporate Limits were not included. 1. Replace the existing Illinois Gulch culvert crossings at Columbine Road and Broken Lance Drive. 2. Develop a design and easement requirements for a drainage system to convey flows on Lomax Gulch from downstream of Ski Hill Road to the blue River. 3. Provide additional storm drains to convey flows along Main Street to the Blue River. 4. Construct detention/water quality facilities on the main drainageway of the Klack. 5. Replace the Sawmill Creek culvert and provide adequate cover to prevent future damage. 6. Provide a drainageway for floods on Cucumber Creek to flow from County Road 700 to the Blue River. Improvements to the County Road 700 culverts should be incorporated in this project. 7. Install protection to prevent further under mining of the Park Avenue and Watson street headwalls on the downstream sides of the culverts. 8. Improve the inlet to the Klack at Washington Avenue and provide a conveyance system between Gold Flake and Highland Terrace to convey the flows from the Klack Unit 48
