Resolution 87-19

In Plain English

The city must reduce toxic chemicals like PCBs and mercury that wash off streets and buildings into storm drains during rainfall. State regulators require all Bay Area cities to have pollution reduction plans. If approved, the city commits to specific infrastructure projects like rain gardens and permeable pavement to filter stormwater before it reaches the bay.
