HOA Stormwater Workshop, May 21st, 2021

CWMP is hosting a workshop on May 21st, 2021 (9 am -12:30 pm) for Homeowner Associations (HOAs) and property managers to help them understand how to manage and control stormwater runoff to meet regulatory obligations, and to protect the resources of our watersheds.

Stormwater can be one of the most important and potentially problematic issues that HOAs face. Controlling runoff is important to protect property, home values, and the quality of the water in our streams and ponds. We seek to present relevant information and answer questions you have. We bring together experts, municipal officials, engineers, and stormwater professionals to explore all aspects of this important topic.

This workshop will be limited to 25 participants in person, but there will be an online option as well.
