Stormwater Utility

Public Outreach Programs and
Volunteer Opportunities

The Division works with neighborhood associations, schools, and local businesses for the purpose of informing our community about how we can reduce the pollutant loadings into our lakes. Articles are written for neighborhood newsletters, attendance at neighborhood meetings is requested, programs are presented to classrooms, and displays are presented at various weekend activities. It is believed that an aware public can become a strong element in the pollution solution.

Brochures have been created to address general and specific concerns. Topics ranging from lawn clippings and leaves to vehicle service fluids have been incorporated into pamphlets which are mailed to City residents and businesses.  Below are links to articles of interest, outreach programs and volunteer opportunities offered through the Stormwater Division.
