Approve Green Infrastructure Framework to reduce stormwater pollution
In Plain English
The city must reduce pollutants flowing from streets and parking lots into storm drains during rain. Federal regulations require cities to have a plan for managing this runoff. If approved, this framework outlines how Richmond will use green infrastructure like rain gardens and permeable pavement to filter pollution before it reaches waterways.
