Long Lake, MCWD partner on stormwater planning
Long Lake and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District took another step forward in a nearly decade-long partnership, with the city accepting a project roadmap and supporting advancing a feasibility study that will consider cost-effective environmental projects.
For years, the MCWD has both assisted cities and private companies and spearheaded its own projects aimed at improving environmental factors. In Long Lake, the MCWD supported wetland improvements along Long Lake Creek, developed and enhanced stormwater ponds at Nelson Lakeside Park, and restored shoreline on Long Lake.
