Description: Small communities face unique challenges as they work to protect water quality and mitigate flooding. This webinar will explore the ways that intermunicipal collaborations can enable communities to leverage their resources, meet regulatory requirements, and unlock new funding and financing to pursue shared stormwater management goals. Join us to learn about resources and dive into real world examples that explore the process of developing and implementing these partnerships. The presentation will also discuss opportunities to connect existing partnerships with the Clean Water State Revolving Fund and other funding and technical assistance opportunities.
