The objective is to create a plan that will provide guidance to the Jefferson Parish Council and Administration on best practices for integrated stormwater management and green infrastructure on public and private property.

This meeting will introduce the public to green infrastructure concepts, discuss projects the Parish has already implemented, and the process for submitting input on the plan.
