City Council Regular Meeting · 2026-06-18 · agenda_item

The City of Pensacola is planning stormwater and sewer abatement projects to address flooding issues. These projects include installing new stormwater piping on Main Street to manage street flooding and route water to Pensacola Bay, reducing localized flooding on Barrancas Avenue, expanding and rehabilitating the Cordova Square pond for increased water retention, and improving drainage from 9th Avenue to Pensacola Bay. This work is currently under review and is planned to be funded through the American Rescue Plan Act. The project scope involves site clearing, grading, underground utility work for stormwater piping, and potentially road work. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, concrete, plumbing, and civil engineering could find opportunities. Reaching out early before final bids and permits are issued may offer a competitive advantage.
