The City maintains:
- 29 stormwater retention and detention ponds
- 27 miles of stormwater collection lines
- All storm ditches
- Approximately 1,000 catch basins
4 Tubes Gates
Starting in October and all through the winter months the drainage crew checks and cleans the 4 Tubes Gates. They remove mud and debris that packs in front of the gates and make sure that the gates are working properly. They can only clean the gates at low tide, which means they are often cleaning in the dark.
The Stormwater Crew has 4 employees. This crew also maintains the streets, and city facilities. If you have any questions about the Cities Stormwater system please contact Public.Works@stanwoodwa.org .
