Below is a list of documents used to guide policy within Boone. Currently the city is creating a Sewer Management Program in conjunction with development of a Capital Improvements Plan. These two crucial documents guide dollars to addressing the problems caused by heavy rain events. This process will take time, effort, and diligence by citizens, staff, and the City Council.
