First and foremost, they reduce stormwater runoff. information. Less stormwater runoff means less pollutants are picked up and carried into the stormdrain. This reduction of stormwater runoff happens a number of ways: canopy interception of rain, increased infiltration, and tree uptake of water. Second, trees can reduce water temperatures by shading riverbanks and streets that runoff flows over on the way to the lake. Cooler water temperatures are critical to fish species like trout that require them. Shorelines with vegetation provide critical habitat. Lastly, trees will take up some of the pollution found in stormwater runoff. This includes pollutants like phosphorus that can reduce water clarity and dissolved oxygen by increasing algae growth (algal blooms). These impacts can change whole fish communities and are particularly hard on game fish.

SPRING STREET SWEEPING It’s time to clean up the grit and road debris accumulated during the winter. The City is asking that any material on the boulevard be cleaned up and disposed of by the property owner through the trash hauler or composting on the property. Early spring rains wash organic matter such as grass, decomposed leaves, and twigs, as well as road sediment into catch basins and storm ponds. This leads to nuisance weeds, algal bloom, and sediment deltas in City ponds and lakes.
The Public Works Department usually begins spring road cleanup after March 15, depending upon the weather. Areas near lakes will be swept first, followed by residential neighborhoods. This operation is typically completed by April 15. Due to the presence of snow and ice in some locations during the first round, a second round is usually necessary.
Thank you for being environmentally friendly and assisting the City in protecting our ponds and lakes. If you have any questions, please contact Public Works at 952-953-2400 or [email protected].
