June 6, 2011 Meeting Report

Friends of Baldwin met on June 6 in Robertsdale. Cal Markert, County Engineer spoke on the County involvement in stormwater management. Stormwater must be managed on a watershed basis and the first watershed chosen in which to implement a plan is the Fish River Watershed. The County has GPS data and is putting gauges in streams but rain is needed to get a baseline. Bob Gross inquired about funding for the project as the Baldwin County Stormwater Coalition had established that millions of dollars would be needed and was answered that the County had appropriated $800,000 for the project this year, but additional funds would have to be appropriated each year. Developers will also be required to abide by subdivision regulations.

     The County is continuing work on the I-10-I-65 connector road.
