Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD) conducted a nine-question survey about land development and stormwater management from mid September through October, 2008.  We received 200 responses from engineers, planners, stormwater coordinators, landscape architects and professionals in related fields. Thanks to all who participated – your responses have been read and we are discussing your comments and suggestions as the Volume 3 updates continues. 

The results of the survey are posted below.  Each PDF corresponds to a survey question.
