Stormwater Projects Blog Post and Grant Updates!
As announced last month, eleven neighborhood sites were selected to receive Stormwater Grant funding for green stormwater projects. PWD appreciates all who applied. To recognize the variety of projects that were awarded funding, please read our Philly H2O blog post on the awardees. Additional information on the awardees can be found on the Stormwater Grants website under the "What's New" section.
Our next grant deadline will be October 15th, 2022. Pre-applications meetings will open in Summer 2022, so stay tuned for an opening date. Be sure to check our website for the most up to date resources. (Did someone forward you this email? To sign up for the Stormwater Grants email newsletter, visit here!)
In addition to our Fall deadline, we are also currently accepting grant applications on a rolling basis from 4/15/2022 to 6/10/2022. We will consider grant applications from Property Owners for phased design and construction projects.
There are various ways to utilize our rubric, which tackles criteria such as: community impact, Greening, cost effectiveness, Project Funding, Right-of-Way (ROW) Impervious Area Capture, and Strong Property Owner Involvement.
