Project Reviews

The Commissions review proposed land development and redevelopment projects as well as other projects affecting water resources within the Shingle Creek and West Mississippi watersheds. Projects are reviewed in accordance with the management standards and policies of the Commissions and recommendations are made to the member city in which the project is located. It is the city's responsibility to enforce the Commissions’ recommendations to ensure that natural resources are protected and water quality improvements are implemented.  To print PDF files use the print button in the Acrobat task bar instead of your web browser’s print button.
