Objective
Our mission is to protect, maintain, and restore Chattanooga’s waterways by improving local water quality, reducing downstream flooding, and empowering the region to embrace green stormwater solutions. Through education, stewardship, and sustainable infrastructure, we collaborate with community members to create a healthier, more resilient city for generations to come.
Green Grants Program
The City's Stormwater Resources Program has created Green Grants for property owners who seek to improve water quality and/or go beyond their Stay-on-Volume (SOV) requirement for a green infrastructure (GI) redevelopment or retrofit project.
The grant will provide commercial, industrial, institutional, and non-profit customers up to $200,000 of funding for the design and construction of green infrastructure projects on private properties.
Some examples of green infrastructure are, but are not limited to:
Grant funding is also available to streambank repair, riparian buffer restoration, and impervious surface removal projects.
