Homeowner/Homeowners Association (HOA) Best Management Practices
Aesthetics is but one plus for properly maintained properties including single family homes and open space within a subdivision. Sustainable, watershed-friendly BMPs are another.
Simple BMPs can be applied by the homeowner or HOA for water quality, flood reduction and healthy natural resources which adds to the quality of life factor for homeowners and those living in the watershed. What can you do? Incorporate various best management practices in and around your home.
