Stormwater Code and Design Manual Updates

Stormwater Code and Design Manual Open House        10/31/2011

The City of Lake Oswego held an outreach event held Saturday, October 22, at Hazelia Field to promote public understanding, education and enthusiasm of watershed issues and the current Lake Oswego stormwater code and design manual update project.  The event ran from 10:00a.m. – 1:00p.m. and featured informational stations and activities for participants to engage in and learn about stormwater issues in Lake Oswego.  These stations included information about:

• Ways to protect streams and waterways;
•  Technologies that encourage watershed health including low impact development facilities and native plants;
• Lake Oswego watershed maps;
• Information about the Lake Oswego watershed code update project;
• A fun pumpkin decorating station.

This event attracted several members of the Lake Oswego community who came specifically to learn about the project.  Because the convenient location, several other visitors stopped by while visiting Luscher Farm on the day of the event as well. 

If you missed the event, the informational posters are available below in the project archive.
