Brookside Park Stormwater Capture Project

Pasadena

Description

The council approved the design concept for a stormwater capture project under Brookside Park's parking Lot I, finding it exempt from CEQA. It will capture about 86 acre-feet of stormwater a year, with construction starting after the 2028 Olympics.

Impact summary

Cleaner water flowing into the Arroyo Seco and more groundwater recharge for the city — but 18 months of phased construction and truck traffic at the park once work begins.
