Join us for a community forum to learn about two new planned rain gardens and how they will reduce polluted stormwater entering Northport Harbor
Rain Gardens, also referred to as “green infrastructure,” use natural landscapes and native plantings as a successful and cost-effective way to reduce flooding, save energy, prevent polluted runoff, and increase property values.
Citizens Campaign for the Environment and the Village of Northport are working together to install two new rain gardens on Bluff Rd and James Street. There is already a successful functioning rain garden built in front of the Northport Yacht Club. Rain gardens prevent polluted stormwater runoff from reaching Northport Harbor and Long Island Sound. They capture, store, and filter contaminants while protecting the shoreline and harbor.
Join us for a presentation on this beneficial new project, offer your feedback, and learn more about the importance of protecting Northport Harbor from polluted runoff.
