Reservoir Land Stewardship Neighbor Communications

The Land Stewardship Program is a voluntary program offering eligible contiguous property owners options to modify city-owned reservoir property in order to create an overland path, install a private boat dock, remove invasive species, or create a filtered view of the water through a license agreement. To learn more about the program, including program specifications and individual site eligibility, visit the Land Stewardship Program website or email landstewardship@columbus.gov.

Keep it Clean

Simple steps you can take at home to prevent water pollution.

Take a Tour

Signage installed at Griggs, O'Shaughnessy & Hoover Reservoirs invites park visitors to take a self-guided tour along the shoreline & learn about the green infrastructure installed there.

Rain gardens, porous pavement & more can improve the quality of storm water entering the reservoirs that supply our drinking water.
