Background and Discussion:
An increase to the HCFCD maintenance budget was approved by voters in 2024. The increase will be used to hire new field crews to maintain critical storm water drainage infrastructure. These new excavators will be used by the new field crews.

Expected Impact:
Faster response to community reported storm water drainage problems. Progress towards the VATRE goal of a 67 year maintenance cycle.

Alternative Options:
No other options were considered.
