In a September post I spoke of this program and how we can all learn to conserve water and plant Florida native species in our yards. Well, an added benefit is that the City can also earn FDEP water pollution credits and consumptive use credits. What this program will do for the City is:
1)Help track the water quality of our lakes to make sure we are keeping stormwater pollution at a minimum and water quality high
2)Help educate staff and residents how to conserve water so that the City will draw less from the aquifer through proper and efficient irrigation and landscaping.
I am very pleased our awesome City Manager has agreed to sign the City up for this very valuable program. I hope residents will also take full advantage of the classes the program will offer on water conservation and irrigation efficiency.
