Reservoir Land Stewardship Program and 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 [email protected].
