Gaining Public Support with Your Stormwater Utility: The City of Dover

Posted on September 21, 2022September 22, 2022 by Mary Looney

We will be having our next stormwater utility webinar in a few weeks:

Gaining Public Support with Your Stormwater Utility: The City of Dover

October 5th, 2022; 1PM EST

For our fourth webinar of the series, Gretchen Young PE, the Environmental Projects Manager for the City of Dover, New Hampshire, will discuss the city’s current standing in their process of implementing the state’s first stormwater utility. After an initial unsuccessful attempt at establishing a utility, Dover has decided on a different approach for their second attempt, this time with the assistance of a community-based ad hoc committee. This webinar will dive into Dover’s use of public support and engagement throughout their utility process as well as and explore the next steps to come for the city.

NEMO (Nonpoint Education for Municipal Officials) was created in the early 1990’s to provide information, education and assistance to local land use boards and commissions on how they can accommodate growth while protecting their natural resources and community character. The program was built upon the basic belief that the future of our communities and environment depend on land use, and, since land use is decided primarily at the local level, education of local land use officials is the most effective, and most cost-effective, way to bring about positive change.
