Storm Water & Development With the City of Greenville, NC

Daryl Norris, with City of Greenville, NC sat down to talk to us this month about storm water. What is storm water? How does it affect development? The projects we approve, the projects we don't. Currently, the state of NC requires that 100% of the stormwater generated by new development be mitigated with infrastructure as a part of that project.
