Celebrate completion of the City’s first green infrastructure pilot project on July 16

Join Mayor Sly James, Mayor Pro Tem Cindy Circo and others in a press conference to celebrate the completion and success of the Middle Blue River Basin Green Solutions Pilot Project on Monday, July 16 at 9:30 a.m. at 1436/1437 E. 75th Terrace.

This event will designate the Marlborough Neighborhood as the City’s first KC Green Neighborhood and will demonstrate the absorption of pervious sidewalks.

The City’s Overflow Control Program is one of the greenest in the country, and the conclusion of this first pilot project is significant. The next green pilot project will launch this summer and, in collaboration with the U.S. EPA, the City will measure the effectiveness of this green solution to manage overflows.

For more information, contact Colleen Doctorian, public information officer for the Water Services Department, at 816-513-0232.
