Thank you for visiting the new West Seattle rain gardens website. We started this site due to numerous concerns about the biorentention swales King County is planning to construct in our neighborhoods. Bioswales are not rain gardens. Please read the Issues page to see the difference. We hope you’ll carefully review the content of the site and then take action. Together, we can call upon King County to provide the most safe and effective option to stop Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs). Please read the About Us, Issues and Take Action pages to learn more.
Welcome!
Thank you for visiting the West Seattle rain gardens website. We started this site when King County planned to construct "biorentention swales" in our neighborhoods. Bioswales are NOT rain gardens. We hope you’ll carefully review the content of the site to learn from our experience, especially if a similar project is proposed for your community. We support green infrastructure, but we advocate for safe options to address Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs).-
