Neighborhood Meetings

Unfortunately many residents are unaware of pollution prevention practices and therefore may contribute to stormwater and lake pollution. Some examples of poor housekeeping practices at home include washing cars in the driveway and allowing the wash water to make its way to a nearby stormwater drain, by over fertilizing, blowing grass and/or leaves into paved surfaces, or by disposing of household hazardous waste improperly. Anything in our streets, driveways, parking lots, alley ways, or any paved surface will more than likely end up in a nearby lake whenever it rains (click here to learn more).

We feel that educating our residents is the best way to help save Orlando's lakes.  Even if you do not have lakefront property or have a lake near by, you still  have an impact on their water quality via neighborhood and City streets.  

Water is our most precious natural resource and it is crucial that we all take part and do what we can to maintain water quality. Let us come out to your next neighborhood meeting or event and educate you and your  neighbors on local lakes, stormwater, lake pollution, and ways to help prevent pollutants from reaching our lakes!  Or, to address issues on your neighborhood lake.
