Toronto Stormwater Management Incentives Consultation

 

Ever wondered how your property’s hardscaping (driveways primarily) could play a role in managing Toronto’s flood risk? With heavy rainfall becoming more frequent, the City of Toronto is looking to involve private property owners with a new stormwater management rebate program. By implementing solutions like rain gardens and permeable pavement, you can help protect your home and neighborhood from flooding. Here’s everything you need to know about these initiatives and how to get involved.

Understand the Need for Stormwater Management

Toronto’s stormwater systems are facing significant pressure due to heavier and more frequent rainfall, increasing the flood risk in residential areas. When water doesn’t have a way to absorb into the ground, it flows over hard surfaces (concrete and asphalt driveways), overwhelming the city’s stormwater system. Simple, effective measures like installing permeable surfaces can help reduce this pressure.

The City of Toronto is currently exploring incentive programs for private properties to encourage better stormwater management. You can have a direct impact on shaping these programs by sharing your feedback in the City’s survey. Your input will help the city create incentives that make it easier and more affordable for property owners to adopt eco-friendly solutions.
