San Mateo County Sustainable Green Streets and Parking Lots Design Guidebook

San Mateo Countrywide Water Pollution Preservation Program

Roads and parking lots provide important opportunities for managing storm water because they constitute as much as 70 percent of the total impervious cover in ultra-urban landscapes.

In 2007, the City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) enthusiastically supported the recommendation from its San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program Technical Advisory Committee to develop this Sustainable Green Streets and Parking Lots Design Guidebook.

The guidebook provides designers, builders, municipal staff, and other interested groups practical and state-of-the-art information on creating low-impact development roadways and parking lots within San Mateo County.
