Adopt-A-Pond Program

Welcome to the Adopt-A-Pond Program page. Please take a moment to read about what's happening with the program, search our list of ponds, contact us or learn about how to join the Adopt-A-Pond Program.

The restoration or rehabilitation of stormwater ponds is essential to the health of our lakes, creeks, rivers and bays. All stormwater ponds should have a landscape design. This design is critical to the success of the pond. Aquatic vegetation used to stabilize a pond and to remove pollutants is a vital link that helps maintain water quality. Other amenities that a properly designed pond may have are increased wildlife habitat, recreation areas, and aesthetic vistas. The Adopt-A-Pond program helps citizens learn to maintain their neighborhood ponds by providing them with the resources and expertise they need to successfully do so.

Please use the "Contact Us" tab at the top right of this page to report problems with the function of the Adopt-A-Pond page.
