2022 proved to be another year of progress towards CARPC’s vision of a region where communities create exceptional quality of life for all by working together to solve regional challenges. Thank you to our communities and partners for a year of meaningful collaboration!
The Commission approved CARPC's 2023 Work Program at the December meeting. The bulk of staff time will be spent on water quality and land use planning next year. New program areas include Climate Resilience Planning and the WI Salt Wise Program.
Every year Wisconsin uses over half a million tons of road salt to deice our roads, while thousands of residents use road salt to deice their sidewalks and driveways. Every ounce of salt we put on the ground stays in the environment, and our rampant and unregulated use of salt has major consequences.
CARPC Unveils Greater Madison Region Green Infrastructure Viewer
CARPC is proud to roll out the Greater Madison Region Green Infrastructure Viewer, an ArcGIS webmap showcasing a collection of representative and exemplary projects using green infrastructure practices for urban stormwater management.
The Storm Drain Mural Program led by the Madison Area Municipal Stormwater Partnership and Dane County is now accepting applications for 2023 murals. Through this program, local artists use storm drains as a canvas to educate residents about stormwater pollution through art.
