Green Infrastructure Retrofits; Charleston, SC

Kimley-Horn is working with the city of Charleston's Stormwater Department to create small, green infrastructure areas on residential lots purchased by the city with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grants. These lots are in key locations that are often susceptible to significant flooding. The goal is to continue to assess what vacant lots can be added to this program in order to increase public green space while being able to regulate flooding severity throughout the city. The areas will mitigate flooding within their respective neighborhoods and provide small amenities and beautification for local residents, including informational graphics demonstrating how homeowners can employ similar solutions in their yards.
