Dear Residents of Winter Springs,

As your City Commissioner, I’m excited to share an update on an important environmental initiative that marks a significant step towards safeguarding our community’s water systems. We’re embarking on a critical project aimed at removing sediment buildup from key stormwater ponds across our city. This initiative not only ensures the efficient flow of water but also minimizes the risk of flooding to adjacent properties.

Our city has identified six locations within five pivotal ponds where sediment has impeded stormwater runoff, reducing the hydraulic capacity of these ponds. To tackle this, we are seeking qualified vendors who will help restore the functionality of our stormwater management infrastructure. This project is essential for maintaining our commitment to environmental stewardship and community safety.

Our dedication to preventing future water-related issues and underscores the importance of proactive environmental management. The selected vendor will begin inspections and sediment removal to ensure our stormwater systems operate optimally.

As we move forward with this project, I want to assure you of our unwavering commitment to the health and safety of Winter Springs’ water systems. This effort not only addresses immediate concerns but also lays the groundwork for a sustainable and resilient future for our beloved community.

Thank you for your ongoing support and engagement as we continue to enhance our city’s environmental health and safety. Together, we are making Winter Springs an even better place to live.

Warm regards,

Victoria K. Bruce City Commissioner, Winter Springs, Florida
