plan comparison
A TRADITIONAL RESPONSE
Piped System = Higher Infrastructure Costs
Individually Planned Sites = Unorganized and Auto-Oriented
Traditional Ponds and Storm BMP’s =
Lower Development Yield and “unusable spaces
No park or open space amenity
STORMWATER PARK-
A MULTIFUNCTIONAL APPROACH
Surface System = Limited Subsurface Pipe
Denser Developments= Walkable Environment
No “wasted” space for Stormwater Management=
Higher Development Yield for Property Owners
Park creates an attractive amenity for neighborhood
