Will Levee Bond Referendum Hold?

As I've pointed out in my posts recently about the lower sections of Cameron Run, there is a $30 million dollar bond initiative to build a levee and pumping station to protect the working class Huntington neighborhood in Alexandria from further flooding.  As the accompanying Washington Post article points out, voters in Fairfaxt County will vote on November 6th as to whether they will finance the levee project, as well as two other bond initiatives on the ballot.  Increased development upstream as well as construction of the adjacent Capital Beltway and loss of nearby wetlands have resulted in catastrophic flooding events in recent years that have inundated local homes.  Without approval of the bond, the only remaining option for homeowners is to stay put and put up with future floods, move or hope that a private developer will step in to redevelop the area (and which would likely still result in upheaval of the existing neighborhood).     http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/va-politics/in-fairfax-county-neighborhood-bond-levee-is-election-days-main-event/2012/10/25/67547aa2-1c59-11e2-ba31-3083ca97c314_story.html
