Background and History:
Flagstaff’s Sunnyside neighborhood has experienced four flood events in 2021 due the 2019 Museum Fire that burned 2,000 acres of steep slopes immediately upstream of the city of Flagstaff. To mitigate future flooding events, the city began construction of two regional detention basins in late 2021 on the Killip School property.
The project will consist of critical elements identified to improve stormwater conveyance to the detention basins by building an inlet structure to connect the basins to the existing stormwater conveyance to provide a controlled flood flow into the detention basins. When completed, this project will significantly reduce flooding risks for the Killip School. The inlet structure construction is necessary to control flow into the detention basins, to reduce flooding as part of a multifaceted solution for conveying increased storm discharge from the burn scar through the city.
