Ordinance 5650 passed 7/25/2017 means that you will see an increase in your storm water fee.
Through Green Camp, our accepted high school students from various high schools across Memphis will explore the impact of urban storm water runoff on our waterbodies though their own hands-on study and use the information gained from their study to support or disprove their thesis submitted with their application.
Proper use of lawn and garden chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, and insecticides plays an important role in protecting our area rivers, lakes, and streams according to the City of Memphis Storm Water Department.
Chemicals have a role to play in establishing and maintaining healthy lawns and gardens. When used improperly or in excess, lawn and garden chemicals can wash into storm drain inlets during rain events.
