Workshop Summary
Revitalizing Vacant Land and Reducing Run-off
With many local governments taking on tremendous efforts to improve water quality, vacant lots may be an underutilized resource. Localities are under various demands to balance water quality improvements, with increased economic growth, and opportunities to improve quality of life for residents. Could revitalizing vacant parcels be a viable option towards each of the goals? This workshop provides a forum for those discussions. One presentation will highlight the Town of Herndon ’s Arrowhead Park Richmond .
