The River Authority and City of San Antonio (CoSA) have identified 2017 City bond projects for cost-shared green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) practices. The program portfolio includes roadway, community center, and other municipal facility projects. The River Authority and CoSA evaluate, select and develop GSI design plans built to the specifications in the San Antonio River Basin Low Impact Development Technical manual. Once complete, these projects will provide water quality and other benefits lacking in traditional infrastructure and will serve as demonstration projects on the benefits of GSI to the community and developers. Cost share covers GSI costs above traditional design.
