New Retention Pond To Address Carver Park Area Drainage Concerns
November 3, 2014
Escambia County plans to build a new stormwater retention pond near International Paper in Cantonment in order to address significant drainage and stormwater concerns in the Carver Park neighborhood of Cantonment.
The county will pay $500 for a 2.4 acre easement on IP property to construct the stormwater retention pond. The property is bounded by railroad tracks to the north and east, even with Booker Street to the south and bounded on the west by privately owned parcels of property that are east of Ransom Street in the Harvester’s Home Subdivision.
The project will be funded by Local Options Sales Tax (LOST) funds.
