Basin IV Assessment

The purpose of the Basin IV Assessment is to identify vulnerabilities to the Aqualane Shores neighborhood (a smaller area of Basin IV, known as a sub-basin). This area has long been identified as a particularly vulnerable area as it is low-lying and has several stormwater discharge connections to canals that rely on gravity. This existing system is very susceptible to rising sea levels and its drainage capabilities are hampered by tides. The assessment includes methods for improving the neighborhoods drainage and resiliency to storm events, thereby protecting upland properties and public infrastructure, including roads and landscaping.

The project boundary is generally between 15th Ave. S. and 21st Ave. S., and Naples Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The area totals 208 acres and mainly consists of residential land.
