Stormwater Guidelines for Green, Dense Redevelopment: Stormwater Quality Solutions for the City of Emeryville
These guidelines, geared specifically to developers and designers, will provide a vision for integrating green stormwater treatment into the site planning and building design of new development. Additional efficiencies in development will also be gained from pedestrian-friendly parking strategies. The parking and green design solutions range from shared district parking facilities to green roofs to containerized bioretention gardens. All are tailored for Emeryville's unique context: heavily urbanized sites, compacted or even contaminated soils, and a nightwater table. Because these Guidelines includes a numeric, hydraulic sizing methodology for various facility types, it will enable City staff, planners, designer, and developers to implement sustainable design on many scales throughout Emeryville. Implementation of the guidelines will allow Emeryville to be increasingly competitive in attracting research and knowledge based businesses and develop additional housing opportunities for those interested in Emeryville's urban lifestyle.
