Volusia County is inviting public comment on the proposed Fleming Avenue Pump Station and Force Main Project in Ormond Beach.

The project includes construction of a stormwater pump station with a backup generator near Central Park, installation of a 36-inch stormwater force main extending beneath the Florida East Coast Railroad and U.S. Highway 1, and a discharge outfall to the Halifax River. These improvements are designed to improve stormwater management, reduce flooding, and increase resilience within the Central Park watershed and surrounding neighborhoods.

Because portions of the project are located within the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard (FFRMS) floodplain, an environmental review was conducted in accordance with federal regulations, including guidelines from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The County has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment and that no practicable alternative exists outside the floodplain.

Public comments on the Environmental Review Record will be accepted through July 17, 2026.

Volusia County is inviting public comment on the proposed New Smyrna Beach Housing Authority Infrastructure and Stormwater Mitigation Project.

The project will upgrade stormwater management systems on multiple New Smyrna Beach Housing Authority properties through site regrading, stormwater conveyance improvements, and construction of a new stormwater pond near the intersection of Mary Avenue and Milford Place. These improvements are designed to increase drainage and retention capacity, reduce flooding impacts, and support planned affordable housing development.

Because portions of the project are located within the 100-year floodplain and wetlands, an environmental review was conducted in accordance with federal regulations, including guidelines from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The County has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment and that no practicable alternative exists outside the floodplain.

Written comments will be accepted through July 1, 2026.
