Sustainable Infrastructure <br /> Santa Ana has a commitment to improving quality of life through the Santa Ana Green <br /> Program and investment in sustainable infrastructure, thereby reducing carbon pollution, <br /> protecting groundwater, promoting healthy lifestyles, and enhancing public safety. The <br /> General Plan builds upon these ideas by providing goals and policies for healthy <br /> neighborhood initiatives, which include tree planting, corridor greenways, build-green <br /> initiatives, and energy conservation. <br /> OVRousselle Street Flood Protection Project <br /> The City received $4,675,000 in state grant funding through the Proposition 68 Floodplain <br /> Management, Protection, and Risk Awareness Program. In 2025, the City used this <br /> funding to install approximately 1,350 feet of new 8-foot-wide by 7-foot-tall storm drain as <br /> part of the Rousselle Street Flood Protection Project. This improvement addressed <br /> deficiencies identified in the City's 2018 Storm Drain Master Plan, which determined that <br /> the existing storm drain was undersized and required upgrading to adequately convey <br /> storm flows. In addition to the storm drain replacement, the project incorporated <br /> drought-tolerant landscaping along the Maple Bike Trail, new sidewalk and driveway <br /> improvements, asphalt paving, and educational signage. Collectively, these <br /> enhancements will reduce flooding within the Delhi watershed, improve water quality, and <br /> enhance the overall aesthetics and functionality of the surrounding neighborhood. <br /> X _ < <br /> I .J <br /> »Above: Pictures of the Rousselle Street Flood Protection Project. <br /> 26 <br /> City Council 10 — 34 3/3/2026 <br />
