The Town of Fountain Hills continues to work on issues related to stormwater infiltration into the Community Center facility. While initial repairs and short-term remedies were taken soon after the problem was discovered during a major remodel at the Community Center in 2021, ongoing efforts to mitigate the issue long-term continue.
The current effort is to address a drainage problem where excess stormwater backflows into the building under doors and windows along the south side facing the Centennial Circle.
To address the problem a contractor is removing the concrete apron outside the building and will install drainage structures and slopes to carry the water away from the building and into the stormwater removal system.
